Why Texas football will upset Alabama

Here's a biggie: Marcus Freeman's Notre Dame is hosting Ryan Day's Ohio State Saturday night with fascinating stakes and storylines. First, is Notre Dame football able to build on its recent Clemson football wins and add another elite team to it's new list of wins over top flight national opponents? Can Sam Hartman win on a level that's escaped him so far, despite him appearing to be a terrific QB? Is Buckeye QB Kyle McCord ready for this type of spotlight? Can any Notre Dame skill players come close to equaling the threat that Ohio State football WR Marvin Harrison Jr poses? Will Notre Dame's pass rush be a factor? Audric Estime and Irish bully ball? Jim Knowles's possibly incredible defense for OSU? What do you think?

We talk Colorado, Oregon, Deion Sanders aka Coach Prime, Dan Lanning, and the Pac-12's headline matchup of the week. With both teams in the top 20 and undefeated, the question remains: Are we all still overlooking Colorado and their ability, via QB Shedeur Sanders, to wow on offense and pull out wins? Is Saturday's matchup against QB Bo Nix and the Ducks one that will serve as a humbling wake up call or just further announcement of the Buffs' arrival? Which line matchup seems the most important? What will the impact of Travis Hunter's injury in the Colorado State be? Who wins this one?

We go back and forth to figure out if Clemson's tough defense, at home in Death Valley, is enough to win this for the Tigers, or if Mike Norvell's Florida State team, led by QB Jordan Travis, WRs Johnny Wilson and Keon Coleman, and dangerous edge rusher Jared Verse, are just too much to handle, even with their close win over Boston College last week.
