I went 12-13 in Week 7 of the new College Football season.
The college football rankings got flipped upside down after last weekend’s slate of game. Here are a few thoughts after those games.
- Indiana isn’t the same team in 2026
- Kentucky is clutch as heck
- BYU is better than we thought
- The Big Ten is very deep.
Can true freshman QB Michael Clayton II lead Illinois past Oregon?
Will Texas QB Arch Manning keep the starting job after this week?
