Is College Football’s Dynasty Era Over?

Formula One and Apple agreed to a five-year, $700 million deal for Apple TV to stream F1 races in the U.S. The league has had a broadcast deal with ESPN since 2018. FOS newsletter writer David Rumsey explains why this move made sense for the world’s most popular racing league, and how this positions Apple TV in the arms race for live sports rights.

Plus, former Alabama running back Damien Harris joins to preview the “Third Saturday in October” game between Alabama and Tennessee, and explain why the days of a clear top dog in college football could be behind us.

Also, FOS reporter Colin Salao preps us for the upcoming NBA season, Curt Cignetti gets a big payday from the Indiana Hoosiers, and Joe Flacco does it again.
