JT explains how the Miami Hurricanes survived a shootout, ran the ball down Ole Miss’ throat, and still punched their ticket to the national title even while losing the turnover battle and racking up dumb penalties. JT goes all-in on why Carson Beck deserves an apology, how Carson Beck stabilized the program, boosted his 2026 draft stock, and shut up every “$4 million QB” joke with a clutch performance when it mattered most. JT also breaks down why Ole Miss’ offense was the toughest Miami faced all year, why Trinidad Chambliss was a problem, and why Mario Cristobal is making every doubter—including JT—eat crow. If you’ve been waiting for the Miami Hurricanes to be “back,” this is the episode where JT says it: the Miami Hurricanes are 60 minutes from a national championship.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT breaks down his semifinal picks with Miami Hurricanes front and center, and JT explains why the Miami Hurricanes are too violent up front for Ole Miss to survive four quarters. JT says the Miami Hurricanes can win a shootout or a rock fight because Carson Beck won’t be pressured the way he was earlier in the playoffs and Ole Miss’ defense can’t stop the run without getting cooked over the top. JT also previews Indiana vs Oregon and makes the case that Oregon’s sloppiness and turnover risk is exactly how you lose to a team like Indiana that doesn’t beat itself. JT gives his final calls with Miami Hurricanes beating Ole Miss and Indiana edging Oregon, setting up a Miami Hurricanes vs Indiana national title matchup.

JT explains why this was the biggest regular-season win of Mike Tomlin’s career and how the Steelers’ resiliency defined their season after everything nearly fell apart. JT breaks down Aaron Rodgers’ vintage performance at 42, why this team can win ugly, and why the Houston Texans should be very uncomfortable seeing Pittsburgh in the Wild Card round. On the other side, JT dives into what this collapse means for John Harbaugh and why the Ravens’ continued failures with Lamar Jackson point directly to coaching.
On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT breaks down why Alabama Crimson Tide football doesn’t scare anybody anymore after Round 2 of the CFP, and why Alabama Crimson Tide football has gone from trench bullies to a finesse team that gets pushed around when the lights get bright. JT explains how the SEC is being exposed, how the Alabama Crimson Tide football team lost its psychological edge, and why Indiana is so hard to beat because they don’t beat themselves. JT also dives into Ole Miss clowning Lane Kiffin and how insane it would look if that roster wins it all right after he bolts. Then JT calls his shot: Miami is the most violent team left, and if it’s Miami vs Indiana, it’s a straight-up mismatch.
On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT reacts to the **Tampa Bay Buccaneers** surviving the **Carolina Panthers** 16–14 in a game that perfectly summed up Carolina’s dysfunction. JT explains why the Carolina Panthers once again beat themselves with awful situational football, horrific play-calling, and a late-game meltdown that officially killed their playoff hopes. JT goes off on **Bryce Young**, breaking down why Bryce Young is not a franchise quarterback and why settling for “good enough” is how organizations stay irrelevant. From the disastrous flea flicker to refusing to lean on the run in the rain, JT explains why the Carolina Panthers are stuck in the same losing cycle. Meanwhile, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are one Saints loss away from stealing the NFC South and walking into the playoffs.
On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT gives his premature instant reaction to the **Indiana Hoosiers** giving the Alabama Crimson Tide the belt on the biggest stage in college football. JT explains why the Indiana Hoosiers physically dominated Alabama Crimson Tide from the opening kickoff and how the Indiana Hoosiers exposed Alabama Crimson Tide’s lack of grit at the line of scrimmage. This wasn’t about fluke plays or bad luck — JT breaks down how the Indiana Hoosiers were simply the better-coached, tougher, and more disciplined team than the Alabama Crimson Tide. JT also dives into Kalen DeBoer's costly decisions, Alabama’s inability to run the ball, and why Indiana Hoosiers football doesn’t beat itself.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT reacts to the Ole Miss Rebels shocking the Georgia Bulldogs 37–34 in a game that completely unraveled because of coaching malpractice.

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT reacts to the Oregon Ducks' suffocating the Texas Tech Red Raiders in a 23–0 win that exposed why statistics can lie once the College Football Playoff starts. JT explains how the Oregon Ducks completely choked out Texas Tech at the line of scrimmage and why the Oregon Ducks proved you can’t buy a championship through the transfer portal alone. Despite Texas Tech having one of the most expensive rosters in college football, JT breaks down how their offense was never built to survive elite playoff defenses like the Oregon Ducks. JT also dives into Dan Lanning's aggressive approach and why Dante Moore's playmaking was the difference in a game dominated by defense. If you thought Texas Tech was a true title threat, this Oregon Ducks performance forces a serious reality check.

JT explains why the Alabama Crimson Tide don’t need a dominant run game to beat Indiana, how recency bias is clouding the Indiana matchup, and why a Kalen DeBoer–coached Alabama Crimson Tide team is built for playoff football. He also clears up the lazy narrative around Miami, arguing that the Miami Hurricanes’ trench dominance and roster makeup give them a real path to upsetting Ohio State despite doubts about Carson Beck. JT details why Carson Beck doesn’t need to be a superstar, why the Miami Hurricanes are elite where it matters most, and why Ohio State’s flaws are being ignored. If you’re betting against the Alabama Crimson Tide or the Miami Hurricanes in these matchups, JT explains why that might be a costly mistak
JT reacts to Pittsburgh Steelers collapsing against the Cleveland Browns and blowing a golden chance to win the AFC North, putting the spotlight squarely on Mike Tomlin and the same tired cycle of underachieving football.

JT explains why this loss to the Cleveland Browns is unforgivable, why Mike Tomlin’s résumé no longer excuses the results, and why the Pittsburgh Steelers’ window is slammed shut without real change. With a looming matchup against Baltimore Ravens and Lamar Jackson, JT argues this disaster may define Mike Tomlin’s legacy in Pittsburgh.
On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT breaks down Charles Barkley calling out the NFL for “stealing” Christmas Day from the NBA and explains why the NFL stealing Christmas was inevitable.

JT breaks down how the Miami Hurricanes survived a 10–3 defensive slugfest against the Texas A&M Aggies and why this game was never about style points. JT explains why the Miami Hurricanes won this game in the trenches, leaned on Mark Fletcher late, and let their pass rush wear Texas A&M down when points were at a premium. This wasn’t boring football—it was old-school playoff survival, and the Miami Hurricanes proved they can win ugly just as confidently as they can win a shootout. JT also explains why the Miami Hurricanes are a dangerous matchup for the Ohio State Buckeyes, especially with their defensive front and game-control approach.
JT reacts to Alabama beating Oklahoma in the College Football Playoff and explains why this was the most underestimated Alabama team in years. JT breaks down how two weeks of preparation, in-game adjustments, and elite coaching flipped a 17–0 deficit into a dominant Alabama win over Oklahoma.
