We’ve hit Week 7, and the chaos just keeps coming. Indiana heads to Oregon in what might be the biggest game of the Hoosiers’ modern era, and the Ducks are ready to remind everyone why they’re a National Title contender. We dive into everything that’ll decide this one: Oregon’s front seven vs. Indiana’s quick-pass attack, the Hoosiers’ massive receivers vs. Oregon’s tackling, and why both QBs might need their best game yet to survive Saturday.

Then it’s Red River time. Oklahoma and Texas meet again, and history says it’s anyone’s game. With QB health questions on one side and offensive inconsistency on the other, both teams are relying on defense and big moments to carry them through. We break down the keys, the trends, and what’s at stake for both programs with playoff hopes still very much alive.

Plus, we update our records, drop our Shot in the Bark dogs for Week 7, debate the hottest takes in Buy or Sell, and wrap it all up with our full Week 7 picks and the Flagged Four-Legger parlay. It’s a jam-packed week of college football, and we’re breaking it all down from start to finish.

It’s hard to even know where to start… if anyone ever tells you a week’s slate is stale, don’t listen to them. UCLA, who hadn’t won a single game all season, takes down #7 Penn State in one of the most stunning upsets in modern college football. We break down how it happened, how Franklin’s program reached this low, and whether this could finally force some hard questions in Happy Valley.

Meanwhile, Florida reignites The Swamp with a win over #9 Texas, an upset that flips narratives overnight. Is Arch Manning’s hype officially outpacing his play? And did Billy Napier just save his job or delay the inevitable?

We also look back at our picks, dogs of the week, and dive into a loaded “Buy or Sell,” debating everything from Miami’s title hopes to why the Big 12 might secretly be the most entertaining conference in football.

Week 6 is here, and Alabama is staring down a game they’ve had circled for a full year. After last season’s shocking upset loss to Vanderbilt, the Crimson Tide get their chance at revenge when Diego Pavia and the Commodores head to Tuscaloosa. Vandy’s rushing attack has been lethal with Pavia, Sedrick Alexander, and Makhilan Young all bringing unique styles to the backfield, but can they keep up with Ryan Williams, Germie Bernard, and a Tide team desperate to prove last year was a fluke?

In primetime, it’s a rivalry showdown in Tallahassee as #3 Miami visits #18 Florida State. The Canes come in off a bye, fresh from beating Florida, while FSU looks to bounce back after a rough loss to Virginia. Both teams want to win at the line of scrimmage, but if the run is bottled up, who do you trust more to make the big throw: Carson or Tommy?

Alongside those headliners, we’ve got our Shot in the Bark underdog picks, Week 6 game picks, and the F4D Four-Legger parlay. Plus, a round of Buy or Sell: Will Hugh Freeze survive the season at Auburn? Is Notre Dame already out of the playoff picture? And is the Big Ten destined to win a third straight national championship?

Oregon and Penn State gave us a White Out classic, but it ended like so many Franklin-era big games: in heartbreak. The Ducks escaped 30–24 in double OT thanks to Dante Moore’s composure and a defense that outlasted Drew Allar. We break down why Penn State still can’t get over the hump, how Franklin’s staggering 2–21 record vs Top 6 teams defines the program, and whether Oregon is now the team to beat in the Big Ten.

In Athens, Alabama snapped Georgia’s 33-game home winning streak with a 24–21 victory that felt like a throwback. Ty Simpson was steady, the Tide were physical, and Georgia’s offense never found rhythm. With Kirby Smart now 1–7 in this series, is Alabama back in the driver’s seat for the SEC?

We then shift to Oxford where Ole Miss pulled off a 24–19 win over LSU behind another big performance from QB Trinidad Chambliss and a defense that held strong in the biggest moments. LSU’s lack of a run game continues to cost them, and we wonder if Garrett Nussmeier’s stock is suffering as a result of Brian Kelly’s system.

We close with Virginia stunning Florida State, Illinois upsetting USC, and Tennessee barely hanging on against Mississippi State… plus our game picks recap, Shot in the Bark standings, and the Flagged Four-Legger parlay update.

📲 Follow us here:

We start with the headliner in Happy Valley: #6 Oregon at #3 Penn State under the lights in a White Out. Penn State hasn’t beaten a top-10 opponent in the regular season since 2016, and James Franklin’s track record in these games has been rough. But the Nittany Lions brought back Drew Allar, two star backs, and paired them with Jim Knowles on the biggest DC contract ever… Can Allar prove he can win with his arm against Oregon’s length and speed, or will Dante Moore and the Ducks spoil another Penn State “prove it” moment?

From there, we head south for another monster clash: #17 Alabama at #5 Georgia. The Tide and Dawgs both have questions in the trenches, but with Ty Simpson finding chemistry with Ryan Williams and Jam Miller returning, Alabama looks dangerous. Meanwhile, Gunnar Stockton has shown poise leading Georgia back against Tennessee, but can the Dawgs’ offensive line hold up against Alabama’s pressure? It’s a heavyweight SEC showdown with massive playoff stakes.

We also dig into #4 LSU at #13 Ole Miss, where Garrett Nussmeier faces off with rising star QB Trinidad in Oxford. LSU hasn’t been able to run the ball, but Ole Miss’ defense is vulnerable on the ground. Plus, Auburn heads to Texas A&M in a sneaky test, and #1 Ohio State travels to Washington in a game that might say more about the Huskies than the Buckeyes.

Beyond the headliners, we’ve got Shot in the Bark, full Week 5 picks, and of course: The Flagged Four-Legger parlay.

Week 4 is in the books, and Farbod takes you through a solo recap of one of the wildest weekends yet. We start in Norman, where Brent Venables dialed up a defensive masterclass in Oklahoma’s 24-17 win over Auburn. The Sooners racked up 10 sacks, a program record, while John Mateer delivered clutch drives down the stretch. Auburn didn’t go quietly, but Oklahoma’s gamble-heavy defense paid off in a massive SEC statement win.

From there, we shift to Lincoln, where Nebraska once again fell short in a one-score game, this time against Michigan. Dylan Raiola had the Huskers in position, but Nebraska’s offensive line couldn’t protect him, and the Wolverines leaned on a dominant ground game to escape with a 30-27 win. It’s another heartbreak for Matt Rhule’s team, while Michigan now has a clearer path in the B1G.

Then it was Indiana stealing the show. The Hoosiers humiliated Illinois 63-10 in a jaw-dropping statement win that proves Coach Cig’s squad is ready to compete at the highest level. Illinois isn’t a bad team, which makes the blowout even scarier for the rest of the Big Ten.

There’s even more. Texas Tech smashes Utah, Billy Napier’s seat at Florida might be cooked, and Dabo Swinney’s Clemson slides to 1-3 despite his fiery presser last week. Plus, a full recap of our picks, Shot in the Bark standings, and the F4D Four-Legger parlay.

Week 4 is here! Farbod rolls solo today and kicks things off with a record check, breaking down how our picks have gone so far, updating the Shot in the Bark standings, and seeing where our parlays stand heading into the weekend. With the board starting to even out, every game feels like it matters a little more now.

From there, we dive into the biggest games of the week. First up, a clash of styles in Salt Lake City as Texas Tech’s high-flying passing attack collides with Utah’s physical, ground-heavy approach on Big Noon Kickoff. Then it’s Auburn vs Oklahoma, where Jackson Arnold steps into the spotlight for a true measuring-stick game against Brent Venables’ defense. We also break down Illinois vs Indiana in what feels like a sneaky playoff-elimination matchup, and Nebraska vs Michigan… a game that could either expose the Nebraska or serve as Matt Rhule’s defining “statement win.”

Of course, it wouldn’t be Flagged for Discussion without our weekly picks. We’ve got our Shot in the Bark underdog plays, a full slate of Week 4 predictions, and the latest edition of the F4D Four-Legger parlay. The board looks dangerous this week, but that’s exactly when the most fun happens.

And it’s not just the games. We also hit the coaching storylines off the field: from Dabo’s fiery 54-minute press conference that felt like a crashout, to UCLA parting ways with Deshaun Foster, and Billy Napier already fighting for his job in Gainesville. There’s a lot to get into, and we’ve got it all covered in Episode 27.

What a weekend! Week 3 of college football did not disappoint. Georgia and Tennessee battled in one of the best games of the season so far, with the Bulldogs proving they’re still national contenders while Tennessee showed they’re closer than ever to breaking through. Texas A&M went into South Bend and stunned Notre Dame, with Marcel Reed and a young core of playmakers putting the Aggies back in the SEC conversation. Meanwhile, Clemson’s stumble against Georgia Tech has completely reshaped the ACC championship picture, could the Yellow Jackets actually be on track for the ACC Title Game?

In this episode, Jace breaks it all down solo, including updated records, Shot in the Bark results, and how our F4D Parlay is trending as we roll into Week 4.

Week 3 is stacked with storylines. Georgia has looked good but not great... can they prove they’re still elite against a Tennessee team that suddenly looks dangerous with Joey Aguilar and a deep stable of backs? Notre Dame gets a huge test against Texas A&M, where Marcel Reed and his receivers will try to pick apart an Irish secondary that’s already shown cracks.

Meanwhile, Florida’s season hangs in the balance. After a stunning loss to USF, the Gators head to Death Valley to take on LSU in what might be Billy Napier’s nail in the coffin game. We break down what went wrong for Florida, what’s next, and whether Napier can still right the ship.

Plus: our record breakdowns, Shot in the Bark dogs, Week 3 picks across the board, and the latest F4D Parlay as we keep building momentum after last week’s hit.

Jace rolls solo for EP 24!

Florida fans, you were LOUD when we warned you… and then USF walked into Gainesville and beat the Gators. Lagway looked shaky and all the mistakes added up to a brutal loss that completely changes Florida’s outlook. Is Billy Napier officially done at Florida? Was this his nail in the coffin? 

Meanwhile, Oklahoma backed up the hype with a physical win over Michigan. Mateer and Arbuckle look legit, the defense looks like a Venables group, and Oklahoma proved it can win without a dominant run game. 

And lastly… the CyHawk delivered another grinder, with Iowa State once again finding a way to hold off Iowa at home for the first time in over a decade. Illinois made its presence felt with a statement win over Duke, Army shocked Kansas State, and Mississippi State’s win over Arizona State kept the SEC rolling.

We close with our full recap of Week 2 picks, Shot in the Bark standings, and the F4D Parlay (spoiler: it hit!).
