Hello and welcome back to Power Hour, a weekly show hosted by me, Nicole Auerbach.

I'm joined today by the Athletic Senior writer, Chris Anini. Chris, hello. Welcome back.

Nicole, it's good to be back.

We're fully in the swing of college football season now.

And we have some surprising teams sitting in undefeated.

And Georgia may be better than we ever dreamed of.

Feared the things of nightmares, possibly.

A lot of what we thought in week one has already proven to be not true, and that's the fun.

We'll get into this a little bit, but I love that the football powerhouses of Kansas and Duke and Syracuse are the teams that are dominating this young season so far.

Power Hour is part of the Athletic, the Andy Staples show and Friends feed,

which is fully back in action. As you mentioned, Chris, the full season is underway.

We are fully in swing here, so you'll find Max Olson, Sam Khan, more of our pals on this feed

throughout the week. I'll be joining Andy and Ari for the Friday show. We always get somewhere in that conversation that I

don't expect. And soon, we will make Ari take the SAT, which I am so so excited for. But before we

get into those shenanigans, I'm excited to bring you today's episode of Power Hour. Break down everything

you need to know in college football in an hour or less. And we might make you thirsty while doing so, so feel free to grab a cold one. Chris,

we're going to start the show as we always do with the Power 5 in true Power Hour fashion. We give

ourselves about a minute to cover one of the hottest topics in college football before the buzzer

sounds, and it's time to move on.

I will start with number one.

George Klufkoff spoke.

He broke some silence he's had.
