Week 2 took out three starting quarterbacks. Nate Polvogt and Kacey Kasem sort through what it means for your Week 3 lineups.

Jaxson Dart is expected to have season-ending knee surgery, making Jameis Winston the Giants' quarterback the rest of the way. What does that do to Malik Nabers, Cam Skattebo and Isaiah Likely? Jayden Daniels dislocated the same elbow again with no timeline, and Caleb Williams is week to week with a hamstring while his backup sits in concussion protocol.

Looking ahead to Week 3: Kyler Murray is cleared and starting in Tampa, the Chargers are 0-2 and unrecognizable, and Michael Penix Jr. makes his season debut Thursday night at Lambeau.

Topics covered in this episode: the Jaxson Dart injury and Jameis Winston's outlook, Malik Nabers' shoulder, Cam Skattebo and Isaiah Likely, the Jayden Daniels elbow and Marcus Mariota, Stefon Diggs in Washington, Caleb Williams' hamstring and the Bears quarterback room, Kyler Murray's return against Tampa Bay, Justin Herbert and whether he's benchable, Omarion Hampton's workload, and Michael Penix Jr.'s return and what it means for Drake London, Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts.

The College Football Show is back for Week 4, and host Shane Barrett runs through a reshuffled AP Top 25, breaks down the biggest game on the board, and lays out the bets he is backing.

Shane opens with the poll: the risers, the fallers, the teams knocking on the door from just outside the rankings, and a full slate of ranked squads he has on upset alert. Then it is on to his Game of the Week, Oregon at USC under the lights at the Coliseum. Lincoln Riley's unbeaten Trojans host Dan Lanning's Ducks in a rivalry USC has dropped four straight times, and Oregon rolls in as a road favorite despite the lower ranking. Jordon Davison, Dakorien Moore, and edge rusher Matayo Uiagalelei lead the Oregon side against Jayden Maiava and linebacker Desman Stephens II for USC in a game with real College Football Playoff stakes for both. Shane has a firm read on where the value sits.

He closes with his offensive and defensive players of the week from Week 3. There is a side he loves in the marquee game and plenty more before kickoff, so hit play to get it all first.

The College Football Show is back for Week 3, and host Shane Barrett runs through a reshuffled AP Top 25, breaks down the best game on the board, and lays out the bets he is backing before Saturday.

Shane opens with the poll: the risers, the fallers, the teams knocking on the door from just outside the rankings, and a handful of ranked squads he thinks are ripe for an upset. Then it is on to his Game of the Week, LSU at Ole Miss, and this one is personal. Lane Kiffin walks back into Vaught-Hemingway Stadium for the first time since leaving the Rebels for LSU, with several of his former Ole Miss players now wearing purple and gold. Sam Leavitt and edge rusher Princewill Umanmielen lead the LSU side against Trinidad Chambliss and an Ole Miss secondary anchored by Jaylon Braxton in a top-ten SEC showdown. Shane has a firm read on where the value sits on a line hovering right around the key number of three.

He closes by handing out his offensive and defensive players of the week from a loaded Week 2 slate. There is a side he loves in the marquee game and plenty more to get to before kickoff, so hit play to get it all first.

Topics covered in this episode: the AP Top 25 review, LSU at Ole Miss, Lane Kiffin's return to Oxford, Sam Leavitt vs Trinidad Chambliss, the Week 3 upset watch, the Week 2 players of the week, and Shane's best bets.

Week 1 is in the books and it raised more questions than it answered. Nate Polvogt and Kacey Kasem go through the ones that actually matter for your Week 2 lineups.

Kyler Murray is in concussion protocol and Carson Wentz threw three touchdowns off the bench. Does Murray get the job back? A.J. Brown is on injured reserve, so who absorbs those targets in New England? And the Bears put up the highest-scoring Week 1 in NFL history while Colston Loveland saw two targets.

Looking ahead: Lions at Bills on Thursday, Deshaun Watson against a Tampa Bay pass rush that just smothered Cincinnati, Tyler Shough after a 410-yard comeback that fell one two-point try short, an Arizona team that looked legitimate, and both New York teams sitting at 1-0.

Topics covered in this episode: the Kyler Murray concussion and Carson Wentz's Vikings start, the A.J. Brown injury and DeMario Douglas and Mack Hollins outlooks, the Bears' 59-point opener with D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai, Lions at Bills on Thursday Night Football, Jahmyr Gibbs, Dalton Kincaid and DJ Moore in Buffalo, Deshaun Watson against Tampa Bay, Tyler Shough and the New Orleans Saints against Baltimore, Travis Etienne Jr.'s usage, the Arizona Cardinals against Seattle, Isaiah Likely after a TE1 week, and the Jets with Breece Hall, Garrett Wilson and Kenyon Sadiq.
