Introduction please!

Last Week:

1. ​Clemson vs NCState- 45 points in the first half by Clemson. Clemson dominated NC State with a 59-35 victory. Clemson scored an impressive 45 points in the first halfAd1. Cade Klubnik threw for three touchdowns and added a 55-yard scoring run2.
2. ​USC Vs Michigan - Michigan edged out USC with a last-minute touchdown, winning 27-24. Kalel Mullings scored the game-winning touchdown on a fourth-and-goal run with 37 seconds left
3. ​Mizzu Vs Vandy- Missouri survived a double-overtime thriller against Vanderbilt, winning 30-27. Missouri kicker Blake Craig redeemed himself by nailing a 37-yard go-ahead kick in the second overtime
4. ​Tennessee vs Oklahoma - In their SEC opener, the Tennessee Volunteers defeated the Oklahoma Sooners 25-15 on. This game marked a significant return for Tennessee’s coach, Josh Heupel, to his alma mater.

• ​

Questions:

1. ​Washington State is 4-0 right now. Their path is extremely easy to go 12-0. How happy will a 2 loss Alabama be to play against WS in a playoff game? Or is Washington State legit?
2. ​Tennessee is lining up to be the team to beat in the SEC they have Alabama and Georgia on the schedule, otherwise an easy road. Will a 10-2 Tennessee be in the playoffs if they lose both of those games? 
3. ​Team that has surprised you this season, for the better and for the worst?
4. ​Heisman Odds: Who do you think stays the most consistent to win?  

Should Carson Beck be on this list, or will he sneak in? 

Games of the week

1. ​20 Oklahoma State at #23 Kansas State- kstate favored by 4.5. Both teams have good offenses with challenges in key positions.
2. ​#15 Oklahoma at Auburn: Sooners are a 2.5 point favorite. Both teams are looking to bounce back after poor showings last week. This game will be about defense since both teams can’t put much together on offense. Oklahoma wins 
3. ​#19 Illinois at #9 Penn State - Penn State is heavily favored to win. 17.5 points. 10th ranked rushing offense in the country with a powerhouse defense. If Illinois can contain the rush with their defense, they can keep it close. I’ll stick with Penn State for the win, but they won’t cover.
4. ​Kentucky at #6 Ole Miss- Jaxon Dart will be all over Kentucky. Although the defense for Kentucky held Georgia back, I think ole Miss is looking like the best offense in the sec. Kentucky gets another Loss.
5. ​#15 Louisville at #16 Notre Dame - since Notre Dame‘s loss to Northern Illinois. They have been putting up plenty of points. Louisville will be a good match for them. 
6. ​#2 Georgia at #4 Alabama- Georgia is favored by two, but looking at how they showed against Kentucky, I am pretty sure that Alabama’s defense is better than Kentucky and much better off as well. .
7. ​Liberty at App State- Liberty is favored by 3.5. Both teams have solid players at Qb. But Liberty will win this one.

Potential Upset?

Stanford at #17 Clemson- with Clemson favored by 21.5 and having exceptional performances the last few weeks, you can see why.

Arkansas beats #24 Texas A&M- this is a pretty even matchup if you ask me. Aggies are favored by 5.5.

And let’s introduce our Guys joining us today.

Dave how was that App State game you went to?

Any changes in the potential for their season?

There is a Non-hype around Colorado. But what Shedeur did was wrong. I have got to say, that guy is not building a team in Colorado. It’s basically a big social media platform at this point.

Michigan did not impress me at all against Texas. Do they drop out of the top 25 this season?

When is there next loss?

Arkansas State,

USC

Minnesota

At Washington

@ Illinois

Michigan State

Oregon

Gamecock laid it on Kentucky. Did Shane Beamer just turn the team around or does Kentucky just suck? True Freshman Dillion Stuart is just a monster at the Edge rushing position

QB Lenor Sellers, finding his place.

How weak is the big 12 and ACC? It’s looking like nothing dominant will come out of either conference. Utah and Arizona, and Miami are it….

Vanderbilt University- 55-0 win over Alcorn State. 2-0 are they gonna disrupt any teams this season? They play Texas, Alabama, Mizzu, Tennessee, LSU, all are currently ranked teams.

Last weeks Upsets

1. #21 Iowa loss to Hawkeyes.

2. #5 Notre Dame loss to Northern Illinois

3. Syracuse beats #23 GT

4. #19 Kansas Loss To Illinois

Near Loss

#7 Oregon to Boise State-

#15 Oklahoma to Houston

#8 Penn State struggling against Bowling Green

#17 Kansas State to Tulane

#16 Oklahoma State to Arkansas

Games of the Week:

1. #4 Alabama at Wisconsin

2. South Carolina vs #16 LSU- which gamecocks team do we get? Week 1 or week 2? LSU at 1-1 is still a solid team if they can close the game. Can Shane Beamer hang enough on brian Kelly to give them their second loss?

3. #20 Arizona At #14 Kansas State- Kansas State barely hung in there with Tulane. I’m not sure if 2-0 Arizona is better than Tulane, but they probably are. This matchup should be a close call.

4. #24 Boston College at #6 Mizzu- a little early in the season to call BC a good football team. They have 2-0 starts regularly. Mizzu is a legit team. Probably the #6 team in the country. Everyone will be watching Mizzu though, since their schedule is weak, any mess up can be a strike against them. they have had no points score against them yet. That tells me the defense is consistent and doing the right stuff.

5. Tulane At #15 Oklahoma - after nearly beating Kansas State last week, Tulane May be hungry for a win. Oklahoma is not exactly the offensive juggernaut people hoped they’d be.

6. Florida vs Texas A&M- two teams that need a win to start of their SEC conference play. I’m a bit Bias obviously, but with Napier holding the cards close on how he’ll use Mertz and Lagway. It may be tough to practice against this gators offense. Both QBs being a different dynamic to the game.

7. WV vs Pitt- the back yard brawl. Need I say more. Mountaineer give me an unbiased perspective on this game.
