Summary

This Week 2 is going down in the history books. David Ubben, Chris Vannini and Damien Harris unpack a loaded Saturday, starting with #5 Notre Dame's shocking loss to Northern Illinois (4:00). Are the Irish out of the playoffs?! Texas DOMINATED Michigan in the Big House (15:00). Is Sherrone Moore at fault for the Wolverines' roster deficiencies? Arkansas blew it in Stillwater (22:15). Iowa's offense STILL looks pedestrian as the Cyclones nab the CyHawk Trophy (28:45). Ashton Jeanty is the Heisman frontrunner despite losing to Oregon (who has some issues - 33:15). Tennessee's defense is the real deal (39:30), Clemson had some pent up rage (44:00), and KU is in trouble (49:00). We recap our weekend picks (49:30) before answering your voicemails! Levi asks if that was the last game Auburn fans will see Peyton Thorne (53:00), John wants us to take accountability for doubting South Carolina (57:15), and Sam asks if Nebraska could be undefeated going into the Ohio State game (1:02:30). Shedeur criticized his O-Line in front of the media, but Damien thinks he showed a lack of leadership despite the hard truth (1:08:30). We look at the projected playoff bracket using Chris' rankings (1:14:00) before awarding our Heismans and Criesmans (1:19:00).
