Hot Topics of the Week: Let’s talk briefly about…
Colorado Pulls Out a Victory in 2-OT
Was that one of the most entertaining football games you’ve ever watched?
SEC Down?
Georgia struggles, Alabama QBs look lost, and Florida upsets Tennessee.
Is this the year the SEC dominance slips?
PAC 12 Uprising
While the SEC lags, the PAC 12 is surging in their final year. Washington, Washington State, Oregon, Oregon State, UCLA and Utah roll. Colorado finds a way. How good can this league be? Can they avoid cannibalizing themselves?
Notre Dame - Time to find out who they are
Notre Dame has looked great, but they finally get tested as Ohio State comes to South Bend.
Is Notre Dame for real? Is Ohio State ready for this game?
Parity!
There’s been so many years with the same teams at the top that the sport sometimes seemed to revolve around just a few teams. But this year it seems there are good teams everywhere and no dominant team. Great for College Football? Begs this question, Do you see a scenario where there are no undefeated teams at the end of the regular season?
QB Play Down:
We hear all about Elite 11 and Manning Camp quarterbacks, but quarterback play seems down this year. Are teams practicing as much against live competition? How does Illinois not have another quarterback?
Heisman Trophy Watch: Caleb Williams (QB, USC), Jayden Daniels (QB, LSU), Quinn Ewers (QB, Texas), Jordan Travis (QB, FSU), Shadeur Sanders (QB, COL), Michael Penix Jr. (QB, Washington)
“131 teams. Only 1 will survive.”
