Paul also discusses the situation at Auburn coming off the Tigers’ first SEC win and heading into a game against Vanderbilt that will be a rematch with QB Diego Pavia, who led New Mexico State to a win at Auburn last season.

Next, Andy and Ari preview the Ohio State-Penn State game. Can Ohio State correct its offensive line issues? Who will play quarterback for Penn State?  

Now it’s time to answer your questions. Among them…

Is firing coordinators the new hot midseason coach-firing trend?

Are we getting out over our skis recommending a massive new contract for Indiana’s Curt Cignetti?

Coaches have been talking, and we have been listening. Ari and Andy break down several very interesting press conference nuggets on today’s show.

— Miami’s Mario Cristobal said recruits should pay attention to the trajectory the Hurricanes are on relative to the rest of the programs in the state of Florida.

— Penn State’s James Franklin said injured QB Drew Allar likely will be a game-time decision for Saturday’s matchup with Ohio State. Franklin also dropped some hints about the offense with backup QB Beau Pribula.  

— Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin complained that the SEC isn’t giving the Rebels any night games at home.

Also…

— Stephen A. Smith thinks Deion Sanders needs to be hired at a higher profile program than Colorado.

— Michigan is having conversations with LSU QB commit Bryce Underwood. Is this the QB Big Cat was hinting at when he appeared on the show last week?

— Oklahoma State tailback Ollie Gordon II explained why he hasn’t shut it down even though the Cowboys are having a terrible season.
