Before the season, Godfrey, Richard, and Alex made a bunch of predictions and buried them in a time capsule. Time to dig it up! What did everyone learn over the course of the season? How were our prior opinions challenged? Where we got things wildly wrong, was that bad luck (Penn State) or the sign of missing something much deeper (arguably Clemson)? Let’s review in detail:

* How each FBS conference met or didn’t meet our expectations

* Conference USA and the MAC will just never make sense

* The shocking collapses of Penn State and Clemson and the still-pretty-surprising three-loss season that Texas had

* Godfrey’s almost legendary spotting of a North Texas QB

* What will we think about in a different way heading into 2026?

Producer: Anthony Vito.
