Deion Sanders made his Colorado debut at TCU, and what a debut it was. Receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter turned in the best two-way performance in decades and QB Shedeur Sanders threw for 510 yards in a 45-42 win.

Michigan crushed East Carolina under interim coach Jesse Minter.

Tennessee easily handled Virginia.

Oklahoma smoked Arkansas State and got an entire half of experience for Jackson Arnold.

Washington's Michael Penix Jr. picked up right where he left off. Last year's FBS passing yardage leader threw for 450 yards and five touchdowns in the Huskies' season-opening win.

Meanwhile, Kyle McCord took most of the snaps for Ohio State as the Buckeyes beat Indiana 23-3.

Wisconsin opened the Luke Fickell era by running all over Buffalo.

Texas tuned up for Alabama by dominating Rice.

Plus, some comments from Coach Prime’s postgame press conference.

North Carolina's defense was the butt of jokes last season, but it came out strong Saturday. The Tar Heels sacked South Carolina QB Spencer Rattler nine times in a 31-17 win in Charlotte. Meanwhile, UNC QB Drake Maye looked comfortable and in command.

Drew Allar didn't play a perfect game in his debut as Penn State's QB1, but he showed why his ceiling is considered so high. Meanwhile, Penn State's defense was solid in a win against West Virginia.

In Waco, Texas State stunned Baylor in G.J. Kinne's debut as the Bobcats' head coach.

Alabama started Jalen Milroe and played him until the end of the third quarter of a blowout win against Middle Tennessee. It sure seems Milroe will be the guy who starts against Texas.
