#6 Oregon walked into one of the most feared environments in college football on Saturday. A Penn State ‘White Out’. They walked out with a win after taking down #3 Penn State in a double overtime game. The Ducks and first-year starting quarterback Dante Moore continue to impress this season as they claim the huge victory. Although many people may blame James Franklin for the loss, Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey talk about how this is not the game bash James Franklin for. They also discuss how impressive this Ducks team is under head coach Dan Lanning, if Dante Moore is the best quarterback in the country and if Oregon has a realistic chance to go 12-0, again.
Later, the guys discuss the madness over in the SEC. They start with the biggest SEC game of the weekend that saw #17 Alabama upset #5 Georgia. Georgia head coach Kirby Smart continues to struggle when he faces Alabama and the guys break down why this might be. Plus, is Alabama back? After an embarrassing loss in Week 1, the Crimson Tide have looked closer to the team the country is used to seeing. That was not the only notable SEC game of the weekend. The guys also discuss #9 Texas A&M defeating Auburn and #13 Ole Miss upsetting #4 LSU. Trinidad Chambliss has impressed this season, will the Rebels continue to ride with the backup? Plus, Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman is on his way out after a 56-13 loss to #22 Notre Dame.
Finally, they break down a few more notable games from the weekend. #23 Illinois defeated #21 USC on a last second field goal and completely dominated them at the line of scrimmage. What does Lincoln Riley’s future look like in Southern California, and will he ever be able to fix the Trojans’ defense?
