(4:24-6:15)Andy is a believer in ranking on resume alone once the season starts, which makes this season especially tough because teams such as Georgia and Michigan haven't played any of their best opponents yet.

USC took a huge lead against Colorado and then hung on for dear life as its defense once again looks like a massive question mark.Kentucky dominated Florida in a 33-14 win that featured an incredible performance by tailback Ray Davis. Texas A&M handled business against Arkansas with a 34-22 win. Clemson had a get-right game at Syracuse.Penn State struggled in the first half at Northwestern but hammered the Wildcats in the second half.Georgia fell behind by 10 but came back to beat Auburn. After this, are we sure the Bulldogs are the favorite to win the national title? Auburn has been fairly average all season, but the Tigers went toe-to-toe with the Bulldogs all day.Next week's Kentucky-Georgia game in Athens looks like a fun one.Plus, Michigan finally covers a spread by destroying Nebraska. Texas hammers a Kansas team playing without QB Jalon Daniels.We talk about Notre Dame's comeback win at Duke that required Sam Hartman to scramble for a key first down on fourth-and-16 to set up an Audric Estime touchdown.Ole Miss beat LSU 55-49 in a game that featured 1,343 total yards of offense. We figured this game would be a shootout, but no one expected anything of that level. Tennessee whipped South Carolina in a game when center Cooper Mays returned and the offense looked very different up front than it did in a loss at Florida. Iowa lost starting QB Cade McNamara to injury, but a Cooper DeJean punt return for a touchdown gave the Hawkeyes a win against Michigan State. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

(0:00-15:14)Mike Golic Jr. (The GoJo and Golic Show) is a former Notre Dame offensive lineman who grew up in a Notre Dame family. He and Andy discuss just how big Ohio State's visit to South Bend is and whether QB Sam Hartman has made Notre Dame capable of playing on Ohio State's level. Golic also is calling the Colorado-Oregon game for Learfield radio, so he's pumped to head to Eugene to see the Deion Sanders Effect in person. (15:15-39:21)Oregon defensive lineman Brandon Dorlus also will be in Eugene when the Buffaloes arrive. Dorlus tells Andy which rapper he'd have leading the Ducks out of the tunnel. He also breaks down his golf game and his sideline eating habits. (39:22-53:57)Back east, former Ohio State linebacker Bobby Carpenter (The Bobby Carpenter Show, SiriusXM Radio) explains why this version of the Buckeyes' defense is better than it has been in the past two years. Bobby also discusses former Buckeyes teammate Marcus Freeman, who grew up to be Notre Dame's head coach. (53:58-1:08:46)Andy's extra point zeros in on a potential mistake by North Carolina's social media team as the Tar Heels prepare to face Pittsburgh.

(0:00-6:52)Deion Sanders explained why Colorado took the ball first in overtime against Colorado State. (6:53-11:25)Mel Tucker has responded to Michigan State's announcement that it plans to fire him for cause next week. The gist of that response? See you in court.

Speaking of Ole Miss, Lane Kiffin made some comments about Alabama's defense that caught Nick Saban's attention. (0:00-7:42)Colorado's schedule picks up this weekend as they hit the road to take on Oregon in Eugene, but they will have to do so without one of their best players.

This began as an answer to a mailbag question last week, but now it's going to be a weekly segment. This week's top 10 was incredibly difficult to assemble, because performances have been pretty inconsistent these first three weeks.

Texas was tied with Wyoming in the fourth quarter and then exploded for three quick TDs. Plus, Neal Brown got a win he absolutely needed when West Virginia beat Pittsburgh in the Backyard Brawl.Andy and Zach Abolverdi of Florida notched the biggest win of the Billy Napier era with a 29-16 victory against Tennessee. The Gators ran the ball effectively and QB Graham Mertz completed 19 of 24 passes. Meanwhile, Tennessee struggled to block Florida's defensive front and the Volunteers had the second-lowest scoring output of the Josh Heupel era. Alabama beat USF, but that won't make anyone feel any better about the Crimson Tide's future this season after watching Tyler Buchner and then Ty Simpson attempt to play quarterback.How did Alabama's QB situation get this bad after an epic run of QBs? Can it get better with SEC play starting next week?Meanwhile, Georgia looked anything but invincible against South Carolina. The Bulldogs fell behind early and didn't take control until the second half. Is Georgia's going to start this slowly in every game? (Because that seems to be the pattern.)One team that should feel pretty good after Saturday is North Carolina, which bounced back from barely surviving Appalachian State with a 31-13 win against Minnesota. The Tar Heels will head into ACC play undefeated and confident.Missouri kicker Harrison Mevis drilled an SEC-record 61-yard field goal to help Missouri to a walk-off win against Kansas State. The kick erased one of the worst coaching decisions you'll ever see.LSU thoroughly dominated Mississippi State in Starkville behind a historically good day from QB Jayden Daniels.Boston College gave Florida State all it can handle in the Red Bandana game honoring Welles Crowther, but the Seminoles remained undefeated ahead of a trip to Clemson next week.Penn State looked sluggish early but ultimately pulled away from Illinois.

Andy and Jesse Simonton debate what this means for the Longhorns and for the Crimson Tide.Is Jalen Milroe the wrong guy at QB for Alabama? Can Texas use this as the catapult to a College Football Playoff run?Meanwhile, Oregon won a wild one at Texas Tech (and gamblers who had Texas Tech +6.5 got crushed).Arizona and Mississippi State went to overtime in Starkville, and the Bulldogs hung on to win.Washington State won a primetime showcase against Wisconsin.The U is -- well, we're not going to go THAT far. But Andy and Jesse discuss a Miami that looked dramatically improved in a win against Texas A&M that was played at a much higher level than the teams' meeting in College Station last year.Jimbo Fisher is going to take heat for this one, but this time it was the defense and not the offense. So it's a different brand of heat.Meanwhile, Notre Dame came back from a lightning delay and hammered N.C. State. The Fighting Irish ran the ball well, they threw the ball well and they forced timely turnovers. This was Notre Dame's first big test, and the Irish passed easily.Ole Miss outlasted a Tulane team playing without star QB Michael Pratt.Iowa beat Iowa State 20-13, meaning Hawkeyes offensive coordinator is six points off the pace to keep his job at the end of the season.Colorado struggled to crack Nebraska's defense early, but the Buffaloes capitalized on three first-half turnovers by Nebraska QB Jeff Sims to take a lead. In the second half, Colorado just broke the Cornhuskers and rolled to a win.Meanwhile, Baylor controlled the game against Utah for three and a half quarters, but the Utes intercepted Sawyer Robertson late in the fourth quarter. A few plays later, they cashed it in for a game-winning TD. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Blue Devils, who won nine games in Mike Elko's first season as coach, didn't play the perfect game, but quarterback Riley Leonard and company made plays when they mattered and capitalized on a host of Clemson mistakes.Clemson hasn't made the College Football Playoff since 2020. While the Tigers did regain control of the ACC title last year, they allowed South Carolina to break a long losing streak in the rivalry and got shelled by Notre Dame. Is Dabo Swinney's refusal to use the transfer portal like his peers causing the Tigers to fall behind?It's a Dear Andy episode, so I'm answering your questions.We start off with some news: Kirby Smart responds to Brian Kelly's comments, Jim Harbaugh and his new "we-fense," and changing of the guard for the college football playoff.Then, we check in with Senior Bowl director Jim Nagy to determine which players helped their draft stock in the first weekend of college football. What did Jim think of some of the players who starred for Florida State on Sunday night? Now, your questions.Will Deion Sanders have a press conference this season that surpasses Mike Gundy's "I'm-a-man-I'm-40" rant?Is the Texas defensive line -- specifically the interior group -- the best Alabama will see in the regular season?Can anyone get the Pac-12 Network from the midwest?Does Florida State's win against LSU help the Seminoles' realignment case?Based on what we saw Sunday, should we still assume LSU is the second-best team in the SEC West?Why do so many playcallers -- on offense and defense -- feel the need to get fancy instead of sticking to what works?Tonight's extra point, we take a look at the bands.

Ep 36Coach Prime and Colorado shock the world | North Carolina is still sacking Spencer Rattler | Michael Penix Jr. torches Boise State

Deion Sanders made his Colorado debut at TCU, and what a debut it was. Receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter turned in the best two-way performance in decades and QB Shedeur Sanders threw for 510 yards in a 45-42 win. Michigan crushed East Carolina under interim coach Jesse Minter.Tennessee easily handled Virginia.Oklahoma smoked Arkansas State and got an entire half of experience for Jackson Arnold.Washington's Michael Penix Jr. picked up right where he left off. Last year's FBS passing yardage leader threw for 450 yards and five touchdowns in the Huskies' season-opening win.Meanwhile, Kyle McCord took most of the snaps for Ohio State as the Buckeyes beat Indiana 23-3. Wisconsin opened the Luke Fickell era by running all over Buffalo.Texas tuned up for Alabama by dominating Rice.Plus, some comments from Coach Prime’s postgame press conference.North Carolina's defense was the butt of jokes last season, but it came out strong Saturday. The Tar Heels sacked South Carolina QB Spencer Rattler nine times in a 31-17 win in Charlotte. Meanwhile, UNC QB Drake Maye looked comfortable and in command.Drew Allar didn't play a perfect game in his debut as Penn State's QB1, but he showed why his ceiling is considered so high. Meanwhile, Penn State's defense was solid in a win against West Virginia.In Waco, Texas State stunned Baylor in G.J. Kinne's debut as the Bobcats' head coach.Alabama started Jalen Milroe and played him until the end of the third quarter of a blowout win against Middle Tennessee.
