USC is 2-0 and hasn't been tested, so Colin goes looking for what's real: NFL bodies on both lines, four freshmen starting, and a quarterback in Jayden Maiava who's played his way into first-round talk. His verdict is a top-ten team with a schedule that still decides everything. Along the way: why college football has no leadership and never will, what the WNBA's commissioner shakeup says about the same problem, why Darian Mensah is now the best quarterback in the country, and why Lane Kiffin's LSU noise is going to backfire. 

Timeline:

0:00  USC 39-0, and college football's leadership problem

3:17  The fix nobody will make: kill the non-conference season

6:41  Bowman, Mosley, Dixon-Wyatt and the freshman wave

10:26 Ten freshmen, no more redshirts, and Maiava's rise

13:38 The Big Ten gauntlet: good team or great one?

16:16 Darian Mensah is the best quarterback in the country

18:36 Lane Kiffin, LSU, and why noise breaks football teams

22:31 A top-eight job that doesn't need the shtick

USC & Miami Dominate, Darian Mensah #1 QB? LSU Has A Big Problem

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/ea8b4112-41b3-401e-9495-b4bc01331e98/transcript

Colin’s top takes of the week. 

First, he’s joined by John MIddlekauff, host of “3 and Out” on the Volume.

They start with the Giants win over the Texans, and credit JJ McCarthy for playing well filling in for the G men (2:30) and react to the Bengals storming back in the second half to dominate the Ravens (14:30). They credit Browns GM Andrew Berry for hitting on draft picks to help them overcome DeShaun Watson’s contract and start 5-2 (23:30). 

Finally, they move to college football and start with USC getting destroyed by Wisconsin and Colin wonders whether Lincoln Riley’s time is running out (56:30)
Then, Colin is joined by 2x Super Bowl champion and host of “The Manningcast”, Eli Manning.

They start with JJ McCarthy looking like an entirely different quarterback playing for the Giants (45:00), and discuss Eli’s first game as a pro when it felt like things started coming together (47:15). They react to John Harbaugh’s hard-nosed style of coaching in New York (49:00), and talk about what Fernando Mendoza can learn from the sideline while Kirk Cousins starts (51:00).

Finally, they discuss the Seahawks flummoxing the Chiefs and whether the Chiefs should just throw out that result as an anomaly (53:30), and why Ed Reed was the player Eli faced in person that was just so much better in person (45:45).

JJ McCarthy’s Renaissance,  Chiefs Worst Game With Mahomes, NFL Week 8 Preview

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/69bee16f-e2b0-4927-afaf-b4f1016ece6f/transcript

Colin is joined by John MIddlekauff, host of “3 and Out” on the Volume.

They start with the Falcons upsetting the 49ers and agree that turnovers were the killer for the Niners and that Michael Penix is starting to flourish under Kevin Stefanski (2:30). They heap praise on Cam Skattebo for his physical, punishing style of running in the Giants win over the Texans, and credit JJ McCarthy for playing well filling in for the G men (8:30). 

They react to the Bengals storming back in the second half to dominate the Ravens (18:30), and Colin argues there’s not much for Aaron Rodgers to work with on offense despite the Steelers win over the Saints (28:00). They credit Browns GM Andrew Berry for hitting on draft picks to help them overcome DeShaun Watson’s contract and start 5-2 (26:30), and Colin argues the Lions were lucky to escape their game against the Packers with a win (35:30). 

Colin declares Broncos DC Vance Joseph the team’s MVP after a dominating defensive performance against the Cardinals (42:30), and believes the Raiders are still a draft away after getting dominated by the Rams (51:00). 

Finally, they move to college football and start with USC getting destroyed by Wisconsin and Colin wonders whether Lincoln Riley’s time is running out (56:15), and react to Texas holding on for dear life to beat Ole Miss after building a huge first half lead (1:14:00).
