Fox Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the first games of the college football season as Week Zero officially kicked off the year. He begins by reacting to #14 USC's 16-point win over San Jose State and dives into whether Trojan fans should be excited or concerned with what they saw from the Trojans – and also gives his thoughts on the low fan attendance at the Coliseum for the opener. Klatt also discusses Bill Belichick's North Carolina team pulling off the upset of TCU and whether we may have jumped to a conclusion on the Belichick era in Chapel Hill too early. Klatt shouts out Virginia for their blowout win and evaluates their potential to be this year's Indiana in the ACC. Klatt also reacts to Memphis' upset win over UNLV and it's ramifications on the Group of 6 Playoff chase. He discusses Florida State's lackluster win and explains why FSU is not the power they once were and how things could be about to go off the rails in Tallahassee.Klatt wraps the show up by breaking down the latest eligibility issue in the sport as NFL players try to come back for one more year of college football, explaining how we got into this mess and where he stands on it – while pointing out a particular group that nobody's talking about that is being negatively impacted as a result.

Galen Clavio brings in Brooks White and Andrew Garrison from Hoosier Network for a student-media preview of the 2026 Indiana football season, with the Hoosiers just days away from opening against North Texas.The episode starts with the final week of preseason buildup: Back Home Network's ongoing positional previews, upcoming appearances from Rhett Lewis and Grace Ybarra, the C3 Bloomington Tailgate Bash at Renwick Village Center, and the sense that Bloomington is fully shifting into football mode.Once Brooks and Andrew join, the focus turns to what they have seen from Indiana through Big Ten Media Days, fall camp, and player availability. Andrew describes the program as almost “robotic,” but in the most complimentary way possible: consistent, disciplined, and so process-driven that there has not been much drama to react to. A major theme is the difference between last year's surprise and this year's expectation. Nobody went into 2025 assuming Indiana was about to go 16-0, win the Big Ten, and claim a national title. Now, the Hoosiers are trying to defend that level while integrating new stars, new transfers, and new pressure. Galen, Brooks, and Andrew talk about whether this team still has the same edge and whether the program's culture under Curt Cignetti can keep everything pointed in the right direction.The player discussion starts with possible breakout names. Davion Chandler comes up as a receiver who may not be top-of-mind behind Charlie Becker, Nick Marsh, and Tyler Morris, but who has speed and explosiveness that could give Indiana another useful weapon. The group also spends time on the running backs, where Turbo Richard, Khobie Martin, and Lee Beebe Jr. give IU a deep and intriguing room behind what should be one of the better offensive lines in the Big Ten.The longest football segment centers on Josh Hoover. Brooks pushes back hard against the idea that Hoover was the reason TCU struggled, arguing that the context around him matters: offensive line issues, defensive problems, a heavy burden in the passing game, and a very different situation from the one he inherits in Bloomington. Galen adds that TCU's Week Zero offensive struggles only made the old Hoover criticism look shakier. The defensive discussion focuses on the secondary. With D'Angelo Ponds gone, Indiana needs answers from players like A.J. Harris, Jamari Sharpe, and Ryland Gandy. Brooks sees cornerback as the defensive position group to watch early, especially because the biggest tests may not arrive until later against teams like Ohio State, USC, and Washington. Galen also points out that Bryant Haines' pass rush, pressure looks, and disguised coverages were a huge part of what made Indiana's defense work last year — and could help the secondary grow into the season.The back half of the episode is about student energy. Andrew talks about campus feeling anticipatory, with students discussing which games they were able to get tickets for and how quickly football became part of the conversation during welcome week. Brooks reflects on arriving at IU before the rise and wishing the school simply had a good football team — only to watch the program become a national champion and turn Memorial Stadium into a real home-field environment.The episode closes with predictions. Andrew goes all the way to 16-0 and another national championship, leaning into the idea that Indiana is still operating as a team of destiny until proven otherwise. Brooks predicts a 12-0 regular season, a College Football Playoff run, and believes Indiana is at least good enough to reach the semifinals. The group also debates a possible Indiana-Ohio State rematch in the Big Ten Championship, whether Oregon or Penn State could complicate the race, and why the Big Ten's top teams may once again define the national title chase.

TCU football got off to a brutal start in Week Zero, falling to North Carolina in Dublin, and Bigger Than 12 is breaking down everything that went wrong. Jake Brend and Derek Duke examine TCU's lack of discipline, costly penalties, offensive struggles, and the disappointing debut of quarterback Jaden Craig. The guys debate how much blame belongs on Craig, the offensive line, and TCU's receivers, while also giving credit to a TCU defense that held North Carolina to just 15 points and under 100 rushing yards. They also discuss whether this loss says something bigger about Sonny Dykes, who is now facing increased pressure after failing to consistently get the Horned Frogs back to the level they reached during their College Football Playoff run. Plus, Jake and Derek revisit the growing "Ireland curse" and argue whether Big 12 teams should continue playing Week Zero games in Dublin. They also look ahead to the rest of the opening weekend, including Baylor vs. Auburn, Cincinnati vs. Boston College, and Colorado vs. Georgia Tech, before making their picks and discussing the Big 12's early-season outlook.

North Carolina delivered Week Zero's biggest shock, holding TCU scoreless for the final 49 minutes of a rainy 15–10 upset in Dublin. Gary examines the Tar Heels' suddenly promising defense, Bobby Petrino's offensive debut, Billy Edwards Jr.'s steady performance and the costly penalties that doomed Sonny Dykes and the Horned Frogs.Memphis made an immediate statement under Charles Huff by overcoming UNLV's advantages in yardage, possession time and turnovers. The Tigers' dominant defensive front produced six sacks and helped reshape the early Group of Six College Football Playoff race.Virginia supplied the weekend's most complete performance, crushing NC State behind Bo Pribula, an experienced offensive line and a relentless rushing attack. The result raises expectations in Charlottesville while creating serious early questions for CJ Bailey and the Wolfpack.The rapid-fire reaction round covers Stanford's wild escape against Hawaii, Florida State's troubling performance against New Mexico State, USC's explosive start and defensive collapse, North Dakota State's dominant FBS debut and Sacramento State's unusual opener against Eastern Michigan.Gary also breaks down the most important Week Zero betting results: unders finished 6–2, favorites went just 4–4 against the spread and both outright underdog winners leaned on defense.

Connor O'Gara and Jim Dunaway are back for Episode 10 of The Connor O'Gara Show, diving into the biggest debates surrounding how we watch — and remember — college football. ESPN is getting rid of its traditional Bottom Line ticker during college football broadcasts. Is that a welcome change, or will fans miss having scores constantly scrolling across the screen? Connor and Jim discuss the rise of YouTube TV's Quad Box, second screens and the reality that most college football fans are watching Saturdays much differently than they did a decade ago. They also debate whether Week Zero is being wasted. Should college football use the opening weekend to showcase marquee matchups and create a massive television event instead of treating it like a soft launch to the season? Then the conversation turns to ESPN's upcoming six-part Nick Saban documentary. Jim, who spent years hosting Saban's weekly show, shares insight into Saban's approach to player psychology and why the series could reveal a fascinating side of the legendary Alabama coach. Plus, which college football stories deserve their own documentary? The guys make the case for an uncensored look at Cam Newton, Auburn and the chaos surrounding the 2010 national championship season, along with the unbelievable rise and fall surrounding Ed Orgeron and LSU's historic 2019 championship team. Topics include: • ESPN eliminating the Bottom Line ticker • YouTube TV Quad Box and multi-screen football Saturdays • How college football viewing habits have changed • Why Week Zero needs bigger games • Nick Saban's upcoming ESPN documentary • Jim Dunaway's experiences covering Nick Saban • Cam Newton and Auburn's controversial 2010 season • Ed Orgeron and LSU's legendary 2019 championship run If you love college football, SEC football, Alabama, Auburn, LSU and the stories behind the sport, hit the like button, subscribe and join us for more episodes of The Connor O'Gara Show.

In Hour 2, Andy and Randy talk about the amount of preseason action that is truly meaningless, what they are looking forward to watching in Week Zero of College Football, and visit the Backpage with Beau.

Week Zero has arrived, and the betting market is already moving dramatically across the eight-game college football slate. Gary examines the latest spreads, injury reports, quarterback decisions, betting splits and updated leans before Saturday's action begins.TCU is receiving overwhelming support ahead of its Dublin rematch with North Carolina, pushing the Horned Frogs close to a double-digit favorite. However, the history of unders and outright underdog victories in Ireland could make that movement dangerous.USC is laying nearly 40 points against San Jose State as Lincoln Riley begins a playoff-or-bust season with Gary Patterson running the defense. Virginia enters its ACC opener against NC State with an extensive injury report, while the Wolfpack arrive relatively healthy.North Dakota State and Sacramento State make their FBS debuts under completely different circumstances. The Bison host Jacksonville State inside an energized Fargodome, while Sacramento State travels three time zones to face an experienced Eastern Michigan team.Stanford attempts to avenge last season's loss to Hawaii while dealing with offensive-line concerns and significant market support for the Rainbow Warriors. Florida State's spread against New Mexico State has climbed beyond 32 points, creating a difficult decision for anyone who missed the earlier number.The night concludes with Memphis visiting UNLV in a potential Group of Six playoff eliminator. Neither program has officially settled its quarterback situation, but market money continues moving toward the Tigers.Gary also reveals his four-team underdog round robin and explains why quarterback announcements could still move several Week Zero lines before kickoff.
