Summary

Week 2 in college football was supposed to be light — instead, it delivered upsets, chaos, and big questions across the SEC. Sudu Upadhyay and Ben Garrett (Rebel Grove/On3) break it all down on Game Runs Deep:

  • Florida Upset: USF stuns the Gators, and Billy Napier’s seat gets scorching hot.
  • Heisman Watch: Oklahoma’s John Mateer emerges as the frontrunner after shredding Michigan.
  • QB Spotlight: Arch Manning looks banged up, Austin Simmons shows flashes but turnover issues continue, and could Trinidad Chambliss factor in for Ole Miss?
  • Georgia vs. Tennessee: Are the Dawgs vulnerable with Gunner Stockton at QB, and can Joey Aguilar keep the Vols rolling?
  • Ole Miss Takeaways: Kewan Lacy’s breakout, Pete Golding’s defense, and a gritty win over Kentucky.
  • Looking Ahead: Ole Miss vs. Arkansas, Auburn vs. Oklahoma, and why Vanderbilt might upset South Carolina.
  • Parity has arrived in the SEC — and no team looks invincible.

Come on back into another episode of Game Runs Deep. I'm Sudu Upadeh. He's Ben-Garrett with Rebel Grove and On 3. Benny, we had a pretty underwhelming slate of games in week two, but it ended up getting some pretty cool moments, obviously some upsets as well and got to learn a little bit more about what these teams are going to look like as the season goes on. First of all, man, always good to see. How you doing today? I'm good. Opening flowers for my man Suda, who last week put South Florida,

0:27.2

their quarterback physical beast of a quarterback. Byron Brown, baby.

0:32.3

Byron Brown, they showed up and showed out, beat Florida back-to-back back huge wins for south Florida to open the year

0:38.6

boise state and then Florida opens up all kind of questions about billy napier and his future

0:43.9

just cited an extension in the offseason i'm pretty sure so it's going to be fascinating how that

0:49.0

works out and see how that season plays out because you know when you're forecasting Florida

0:54.0

you're so excited about

0:55.3

DJ Lagway and what they could potentially be. And they had the toughest schedule, in arguably

1:01.1

one of, if not the toughest schedules in all of college football. And they're one in one. That's not the

1:07.8

place where they want to be where they need to be where Billy Napier wants to be.

1:17.3

So it's frightening times or at least time of evaluation in Gainesville, Florida. But for a little bit south of Gainesville, you've got South Florida,

1:21.1

he's really doing some great things under Alex Guller.

1:22.8

So, yeah, it was a more underwhelming slate of games,

1:26.6

but it turned out to be a far more fun and interesting to follow a long week than even week one.

1:34.2

While we had those big matchups in week one, week two, man, you had so many good games that turned out, including Ole Miss Kentucky.

1:42.8

You know, that was another hard fault game between those teams.

1:45.0

Austin Simmons got banged up.

1:46.7

How is he going to be going into Arkansas this weekend?

1:49.9

Arkansas is 2 and 0.

1:52.2

You know, there's a lot to break down after week two, a fascinating week two,

1:55.6

that we thought maybe wasn't going to be a spectacular as it actually was suitors.

2:00.4

So, yeah, man, I had to give you your love at the start at the very top of this show. My man put Byron Brown and USF and Florida on upset alert here on Game Runs Deep last week. And buddy, did you nail that one? Come on. Come on, dude. You know, hey, look, the one thing we are, we're a couple ball-knowers. You know what I mean? Ball-Nowers. A couple ball-nows. You don't work for On3.com. You don't work for Rebel Grove unless you know some ball, okay? And this guy, one of the best they've got over at On-3. It was quite a struggle to even get him to come and co-host the show because he is that much of a ball knower and that much in demand. Okay, calm down. I appreciate you gassing me up this morning. I'm just going to come help a friend out. Yeah, I appreciate that. But Sudo is a superstar and further proof last week making that call. I mean, that was a bold call, Sue do.
