The Slumpbuster Ep 114: Yankee Moratorium, Postseason Baseball, Iowa-Penn St. and NFL Week 5!

Welcome in Slumpbusters! On today's episode Kyle and Ju-Ju have a loaded podcast discussing the Yankees early postseason exit, previewing the NL and AL divisional series and predictions in college football & the NFL. Enjoy!

First thing we discuss the Yankees loss in the American League Wild Card game. New York spent big at the deadline acquiring stars Joey Gallo and Anthony Rizzo. Despite this, it wasn't enough to overcome their longtime nemesis the Boston Red Sox. Boston won the contest 6-2 and is currently battling the Rays. Can the Yankees retool this offseason and what are some necessary moves? #MLBPostseason

Moving away from eliminated team the guys focus on who remains. Will the Red Sox be able to carry their momentum against the defending AL Champion Rays? Are the Brewers and their vaunted pitching staff on upset alert against a hot Braves team? Will the Houston Astros prove they are the best team in baseball when they compete against the Chicago White Sox? 

College football has seen a lot of incredible upsets this season and because of that two Big-10 teams find themselves in the AP Top-5 rankings. The Penn State Nittany Lions will travel to Kinnick Stadium to battle the Iowa Hawkeyes. Will either of these teams remain when the final CFB Playoff Poll is announced? #CollegeFootball

In our last segment we preview these five key matchups from week five in the NFL:

New York Jets (+2.5) @ Atlanta Falcons - London

Green Bay Packers (-3.0) @ Cincinnati Bengals

San Francisco 49ers (+5.0) @ Arizona Cardinals

Cleveland Browns (+2.0) @ Los Angeles Chargers

Buffalo Bills (+2.5) @ Kansas City Chiefs
