College Coaching Panic Meter + CFP Paths + NFL Divisional Rankings | Ep.128
Description
College football heat check. We open with the impossible job of keeping fanbases happy—why every presser is a referendum and what Brian Kelly did (and didn’t) say. We handicap current CFP paths, circle this week’s must-watch matchups, and stare down the Oregon–Oregon State “Civil War” with a historic spread and a first-year HC (Trent Bray) who isn’t exactly radiating swagger.
Then to the NFL: the Bills smack the Dolphins, Miami falls to 0–3, and Josh Allen becomes the fastest QB to 300 TDs—so… are “wins” a QB stat or not? We stack divisions by quarterback strength and check in on Caleb Williams: progress is real, but why hasn’t Ben Johnson’s public praise matched the hype—and how are Bears fans coping with that gap?
Drop your CFP four, the best QB division, and your stance on the “wins aren’t a QB stat” debate below.
