Joe Goodman of AL.com joins Paul to talk about Alabama's historic run to another National Championship run. Callers also touch base with Paul about what they saw last night. Did last night's game actually hurt the perception of college football?
We start with college football's national championship game, in which Alabama dominated a slightly winded Ohio State.
The former commissioner of the SEC, Roy Kramer, and former Alabama QB, Greg McElroy, make sense of the dominance put on display by the Alabama Crimson Tide this season. Callers also talk to Paul about the breathtaking performance of Saban's squad.
Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon discuss the dominant performance from Alabama in the CFP Championship and the MLB planning for 162 games.
Tony Reali and the national panel discuss if this Alabama team is the best ever and the concern for Jaylen Waddle on social media.

Time to give the people what they want… Jalen & Jacoby discuss Alabama’s dominant win over Ohio State, Doug Pederson getting fired, Kyrie Irving’s continued mysterious absence, and Tom Brady poking fun at himself and Drew Brees. Plus, Jalen’s fired about tonight’s Wisconsin-Michigan college basketball game.
This is the Jalen & Jacoby podcast-exclusive hour, coming to you every Tuesday and Thursday. The guys discuss Kyrie Irving’s stated reasons for leaving the Nets, Irving getting caught throwing a large mask-less indoor birthday party and what Kevin Durant might think about the situation privately. Then, they talk about Doug Pederson getting fired by the Eagles and why it bothered Jalen that Jaylen Waddle played in the National Championship. Later, voicemails on what to do when your barber messes up and influencing your kids’ rooting interests.
Amid this most unpredictable, unsettling and unnerving of college football's 151 seasons, Nick Saban has seemed to enjoy this one the most. Sure, it's easy to say when you're national champs (again), but the appreciation runs deeper for the Alabama coach.
Bomani Jones discusses Alabama’s win over Ohio State in the National Championship (1:00), including just how the Crimson Tide became so dominant and whether or not it is the “best” way to crown a champion. He then delves into why America is not ready for this weekend’s Josh Allen-Lamar Jackson matchup (22:37) and why D’Angelo Russell asking members of the press for their reactions to last week’s events at the Capitol was so important (30:56). Plus, an IYHH with tech companies flexing their muscles (44:58) and your voicemails from the time when you were “kicked out” of somewhere (56:33).

Mel Kiper Jr, Todd McShay and Field Yates break down the National Championship game, talk Justin Fields and if he should go back to school or declare for the NFL Draft, why Najee Harris is the clear #1 RB in this class and the elite skills of Devonta Smith.
Bomani, Domonique and Katie question if it makes sense for the MLB to push for a full season and how this Alabama team stacks up to the all-time greats.
Stephen A, Max and Marcus Spears debate, where Justin Fields should be drafted, if Dan Quinn is a good fit for the Cowboys and if the Colts should trade for Carson Wentz.
Stephen A, Max and Joey Galloway debate if the Jets should take Devonta Smith at #2, if this Alabama championship should have an asterisk and if the Eagles made the right move in firing Doug Pederson.
