    Sam and Spence are back for their last go-round of the NFL season. The Big Game is here, and it's time to dive into...almost everything.

  24. 2022 Year in Review

    Sam, Spence, and a special guest take a breather for the Super Bowl bye week to talk about their favorite plays and moments of the 2022 season.

  25. NFL Championship Sunday

    After much agreement last week, Sam and Spence have no choice but to go in different directions for some of their picks this week.

  26. NFL Divisional Round

    A week in which Sam and Spence went in opposite directions in almost every game saw Sam widen the gap in the season standings. This week, it's a different story.

  27. NFL Wild Card Weekend

    Playoffs??? Spence is running out of time to catch Sam in the season standings; thankfully, this weekend's slate offers plenty of differing opinions.

  28. Week 18, 2022

    After an unprecedented week in the NFL, no changes have been announced for this weekend's schedule, so Sam and Spence return to discuss the final week of the regular season, as well as the CFP National Championship.

  29. Week 17, 2022

    Both Sam and Spence had good weeks; now, it is time to see if they can keep it up with Iowa back on the docket and a high-stakes week of NFL action ahead.

  30. Week 16, 2022

    A wild weekend didn't result in much movement in the standings between Sam and Spence. This week, the boys find themselves going opposite ways on quite a few games.

  31. Week 15, 2022

    The first weekend of bowling in college football commences, and Sam and Spence talk about a few of the barnburners going on. In the NFL, a potentially opportunistic week presents itself.

  32. Week 14, 2022

    After another week of Sam and Spence going tit-for-tat, they find they disagree on what's to come for much of this week's slate.

  33. Week 13, 2022

    Sam and Spence went blow-for-blow last week, but not in a good way. The stretch run of the season begins with college football conference championship weekend, and an NFL slate chock full of good games.

  34. Week 12, 2022

    The most lopsided week of the season is behind us. Now, the boys look at some Thanksgiving football and the final week of the regular season in college football.

  35. Week 11, 2022

    The boys come to the realization that both of them are floundering this season, and moves must be made. Will either of them right the ship?

  36. Week 10, 2022

    Another week of Sam and Spence licking their wounds. This week, the boys talk Iowa and Iowa State each playing with close spreads, plus a bonus Game of the Week in the NFL slate.

  37. Week 9, 2022

    Sam and Spence enter another week of football action just one game apart in the standings. The stakes are high as they examine the Iowa games, Tennessee at Georgia, and another NFL slate that lacks a spectacular matchup.

  38. Week 8, 2022

    It's yet another underwhelming week ahead for NFL games, and we still don't know who Iowa's starting quarterback is, but that doesn't stop Sam and Spence from diving straight into another week's slate of football.

  39. Week 7, 2022

    Sam laments his poor showing last week while Spence gets to brag. This week, Iowa has its toughest test yet in the college slate. In the NFL, a week without a standout game results in Sam and Spence both diving into the proverbial trash heap.

  40. Week 6, 2022

    Sam and Spence look to bounce back from a disappointing week 5. In college football, Iowa is off, but there are multiple marquee games to check out; in the pros, the week 6 slate features an obvious Game of the Week.

  41. Week 5, 2022

    Spence wastes no time gloating about his successful week. Then the fellas talk about the Iowa college games, and an NFL slate they both feel good about.

  42. Week 4, 2022

    Sam and Spence try to rebound from a tough week of NFL picks. But first, a discussion of Iowa's upcoming home tilt with #4 Michigan and Iowa State's road trip to Kansas.

  43. Week 3, 2022

    Sam and Spence talk about Iowa's upcoming Big 10 matchup with Rutgers, Iowa State vs. #17 Baylor, and another Big 10 matchup of interest before making their picks for week 3 of the NFL season.

  44. Week 2, 2022

    Sam earned the bragging rights after week 1, but week 2 features many more questions. Sam and Spence talk about Iowa's anemic offense and the likelihood they cover against Nevada, plus Iowa State vs. Ohio and the classic OU-Nebraska rivalry. Then they make their picks for week 2 of the NFL season.

  45. Week 1, 2022

    The first week of the NFL season is upon us! Sam and Spence make their picks for week 1 of NFL action, thus beginning their quest to win their way into a decent retirement fund. But first, the two choose sides on the 69th edition of the Iowa vs. Iowa State Cy-Hawk Series happening this weekend.

  46. Week 0, 2022

    In the program's inaugural episode, KBOE Sports Director Sam Parsons and No Coast Network Sports Announcer Spence Ver Meer talk about the odds for this upcoming NFL season's division winners; also, a quick look at the first week of college football.
