Rick Neuheisel Previews The Upcoming College Football Season

Rick Neuheisel is a former college football Head Coach and NFL Assistant Coach who is now a college football analyst for the CBS Sports Network.

Rick joined Ed and Steve to preview the upcoming college football season which gets going tonight.

Steve asked Rick about Cardale Jones going to the hospital with a severe headache "its a little bit alarming, but I'm told everything checked out okay. Remember they play on Monday, if they played Saturday it would be a bigger deal, but he should be in the mix Monday. Knowing coach I think J.T. Barrett will be the starter."

Ed asked Rick which college football game during the opening weekend stands out as the game to watch. Rick is very interesting in the Utah Michigan game saying, "the Utah v. Michigan game is going to be must see TV. Whether or not Harbaugh has the talent to bring Michigan back to prominence we'll have to wait and see. I really like this Utah team though, especially their running back Devontae Booker."

Rick went on to discuss leaving the Baltimore Ravens for the UCLA head coaching job, the firing of Brian Billick, and which college football teams he thinks might surprise people and make a run to the College Football Playoff.
