This episode of The C.L. Brown Show features Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough and Matt Fortuna, founder of The Inside Zone, to discuss U of L's upcoming game at Notre Dame.

Shough explains why their expectations don’t change even with the Cards losing a couple of starters to injury. He also tells what a win in South Bend would mean to him and the program.

Fortuna details why Notre Dame may be playing with a hint of desperation after its upset loss to Northern Illinois, and why Louisville may just be the biggest game for the Irish until the season finale at USC.

Louisville vs Georgia Tech college football Week 4 game preview

This episode of The C.L. Brown Show features Courier Journal Kentucky beat writer Ryan Black to discuss the Wildcats' showdown with No. 1 Georgia.

Black tells why the Cats' offensive line might be the key to improving after UK's 31-6 loss to South Carolina. He also explains why Georgia transfer Brock Vandagriff's familiarity with his former team might not be an advantage. Even with Texas and Tennessee emerging, Black details why the Southeastern Conference race is still UGA's to lose.
