Hey, Scott, the color of the week is orange.
00:07
The leaves are turning.
00:09
We got Halloween about a month from now, and Tennessee and Clemson were outstanding in
00:14
week four in college football.
00:16
I'll start with the Volunteers, huge win in Oklahoma.
00:20
They go to Norman, manhandle the Sooners, a ranked opponent.
00:24
And what I love what Josh Heupel is doing is he's winning with defense.
00:28
Now 4-0, those four wins have only given up 28 points.
00:33
They manhandled Oklahoma.
00:35
And we know his offense is going to get better.
00:38
They've got a young quarterback in Nico E. Amaliava.
00:42
They're going to get better as the season goes on.
00:44
A couple of weeks from now, they get Alabama at home and Tennessee, which was a distant
00:49
long shot in the offseason, now plus 1,200 on FanDuel to win a national championship.
00:55
Another orange team, the Clemson Tigers.
00:57
I warned people after the Georgia opening day loss, do not jump ship on Clemson.
01:03
They've got a great defense.
01:04
It's going to take time with the offense.
01:06
The offense actually, Scott, has come around a lot faster than I thought.
01:09
Last two games, Appalachian State, NC State, decent opponents.
01:13
It's not like these are FCS teams.
01:16
125 points, Cade Klubnick looks like a different quarterback.
01:20
Four touchdowns last weekend against NC State.
01:23
I actually think they're the best program out of the ACC.
01:27
I know Miami's the favorite, but Clemson at plus 300 to win the ACC, kind of like that
01:32
right now.
01:33
I think Clemson is beginning to peak as we get closer to October.
01:37
Now, I'm going to head on over to the Big 12, Utah and Kyle Whittingham.
01:41
I mean, Kyle Whittingham, if he's not the best coach in college football, he's got to
01:46
be top three because he doesn't get elite talent in Salt Lake City, and yet those guys
01:51
are well-coached year after year.
01:54
This past weekend in Stillwater, they seized control of the Big 12 with a big win over
01:59
Oklahoma State without their quarterback, Cam Rising, using a true freshman quarterback
02:05
in Isaiah Wilson, Zach Wilson's younger brother.
02:08
Just an epic win for Utah.
02:10
I don't see anybody beating the Utes right now.
02:13
Maybe BYU.
02:14
BYU, by the way, big win over Kansas State, plus 2,400 to win the Big 12.
02:21
Game of the week in week five, obviously, Georgia at Alabama, prime time, Tuscaloosa.
02:26
It's going to be a great scene.
02:28
I don't want to be a downer, but in the era of the 12-team playoffs, Scott, both of these
02:33
teams are going to get a mulligan, maybe two mulligans, so you could lose this game Saturday
02:38
night and still be right in the path of the playoff.
02:41
I'm more interested in the Heisman race here, Jalen Milrow plus 750, Carson Beck plus 1,500.
02:48
He's got a shot to jump back into contention if he could lead the Bulldogs to a big road
02:53
win at Alabama.
