Week 3 of college football is here! We’ve got 50 questions we have to get off our chest for this week of action. Enjoy!
- Ezekiel Elliott asked Taylor Swift out on a date via Twitter. Is that an NCAA violation?
- Every week you have to wonder: Who’s going to stand out the most out of Nick Chubb, Leonard Fournette and Derrick Henry?
- Speaking of Fournette, can LSU beat Auburn with Fournette accounting for half the team’s offense?
- Which Buckeyes’ spin move was better: Braxton Miller’s or Carlos Hyde’s?
- Didn’t it feel like spin moves had gone out of style?
- Doesn’t it feel like using helmets as a weapon is in style?
- Who would’ve thought Baylor would enter its bye this week with concerns after facing SMU and Lamar and before playing Rice?
- Is Jeremy Johnson going to shake his habit of throwing to the other team?
- Is Chapman University (Division III) punter William James’ flop the best in history?
- Can another non-conference opponent give an SEC team a scare this week: UConn (at Missouri), Texas Tech (at Arkansas) or Nevada (at Texas A&M)?
- Toledo takes on Iowa State this week. Can the Rockets win two straight against Power 5 schools?
- Would Jim McElwain literally explode after another post-touchdown penalty this week against Kentucky?
- Over/under F-bombs?
- Coming off a 7-6 season and a loss to Kentucky, how bad does Steve Spurrier need a win over Georgia?
- Can Ole Miss win in Tuscaloosa without LT Laremy Tunsil?
- This is now a legitimate question: how is UCLA’s Hail Mary defense?
- Who has more to prove this week when Notre Dame visits Georgia Tech?
- The ACC and Big Ten, each winning national titles the last two seasons, square off in five games this week. Which conference boosts its stock?
- Last season, Boston College shocked No. 9 USC at home in Week 3. This Saturday, the Eagles face the Seminoles, who are also No. 9, and it’s also Week 3, and it’s also in Boston. Are we in for a rerun?
- Can DeShone Kizer continue the strong play he showed us to finish the win over Virginia?
- Which program will return to prominence sooner: Miami (FL), Nebraska or Texas?
- The last five games between Stanford and USC have been decided by one possession. Does the Cardinal keep it that close against the No. 6 Trojans?
- Was there any better time for Vernon Adams Jr. to fracture his finger than the week before facing Georgia State?
- Is it safe to say this season will give us the first running back to win a Heisman since Mark Ingram in 2009?
- Did last week mark the first time that Oregon has lost to a team with better uniforms since the Ducks have been doing their crazy combinations?
- Alabama has been ranked in the AP Top 10 dating back to the second-to-last poll of 2010, a span of 69 weeks. Did that just blow your mind?
- Will everyone be back on Auburn’s bandwagon with a win in Death Valley?
- Was it a good decision for John Chavis to turn down LSU to go to Texas A&M?
- Would you have been able to guess that Temple is the highest-ranked Group of Five school right now and currently leads in the “others receiving votes” category?
- Will Nick Chubb get his 11th straight 100-yard game?
- Will Brandon Allen throw for 300 yards in a third straight week?
- Would an Ole Miss win at No. 2 Alabama, which would be the school’s second ever win there, be a bigger deal than last season’s win at home against No. 3 Alabama?
- How will Jake Coker do against the Ole Miss defense?
- Who wins when Derrick Henry collides with Robert Nkemdiche?
- Kentucky has blown two 24-7 halftime leads. Would they let another late lead slip against Florida?
- We’ve debated which SEC team has been the biggest underachiever so far. How about the biggest overachiever: Kentucky or Texas A&M?
- Should we pump the brakes on Kentucky?
- Will D’haquille Williams catch more than two passes this week against LSU?
- Can Will Grier finish the season as Florida’s starting quarterback?
- Will Greyson Lambert finish the season as Georgia’s starting quarterback?
- All four ranked matchups this week are 3:30 p.m. ET or later. Am I the only one who wants more marquee games at noon?
- The Pac-12 is the Power 5 conference on the outside looking in to the playoff. Does that hold up?
- If Ole Miss loses to Alabama, do both Mississippi schools lose their mojo for the rest of the season?
- Dabo Swinney did the whip, nae nae and stanky leg after beating unranked Louisville. Will there be enough rug for him to cut if he picks up wins over No. 8 Notre Dame and No. 14 Georgia Tech in the next two weeks?
- Would he be able to match Von Miller’s sack celebration against the Chiefs last night?
- For a second straight season, Ole Miss-Alabama overshadows Auburn-LSU. Who would’ve thought that two years ago?
- Vegas favors Georgia over South Carolina by more than two touchdowns. Is it a safe bet for the Gamecocks to cover?
- Is there any chance that Tennessee (vs Western Carolina) or Mississippi State (vs Northwestern State) suffer huge letdowns after tough losses last week?
- Some say it’s not a big deal for Florida to lose to Kentucky. Have those people thought about the impact on recruiting if the Wildcats finish their season as horribly as they did last season (lost each of last six games)?
- Is there anything better than SEC football?
