Summary

Alabama vs Georgia is the GAME OF THE YEAR (so far). David Ubben, Chris Vannini and Damien Harris react to Kalen DeBoer's first SEC win, Jalen Milroe and Ryan Williams' brilliance, and David and Chris debate the stakes of the game in this 12-team CFP era. But, before then, are Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss on fraud-watch, and is a majority of the SEC "mid", as longtime listener Sad Husker Nate described the league in a voicemail? Notre Dame and Miami both held off late surges from pesky teams. Plus, we unwrap the beefy 5-layer burrito that is the Big 12, recap our Locks and Trust Fall Picks of the Week, and award our Heismans and Criesmans.
