Head on over to YouTube, don't forget to subscribe!https://youtube.com/live/ZZDn-Aez5fkTo open the show, Andy goes through some news that occurred over the weekend (0:00-4:23)After Georgia survived a scare at Auburn, the Bulldogs remained No. 1 in the Associated Press poll but lost some first-place votes to Michigan and Texas. (4:24-6:15)Andy is a believer in ranking on resume alone once the season starts, which makes this season especially tough because teams such as Georgia and Michigan haven't played any of their best opponents yet. So Andy's top 10 resume ranking looks very different from the top 10 of the AP and coaches polls. (6:16-16:45)Next, Andy talks to Jake Rowe of On3's Dawgs HQ about the good and the bad the Bulldogs can take away from that win at Auburn. (16:46-36:18)Then it's time for Andy's projected College Football Playoff and New Year's Six games. (36:19-43:05)The schedule turns this week for the Bulldogs, who face Kentucky. It's one of a set of games that have progressively grown more intriguing.Oklahoma-Texas is obviously huge, but Kentucky-Georgia, Ohio State-Maryland, Alabama-Texas A&M and Notre Dame-Louisville are very intriguing. Andy examines the opening lines for each. (43:06-49:43)Next, George Stoia of On3's Sooner Scoop joins to discuss Oklahoma as the Sooners prepare to face Texas in the Cotton Bowl on Saturday. (49:44-1:02:02)Later, Nick De La Torre of On3's Gators Online joins to discuss the disaster that was Florida's performance at Kentucky.

USC took a huge lead against Colorado and then hung on for dear life as its defense once again looks like a massive question mark.Kentucky dominated Florida in a 33-14 win that featured an incredible performance by tailback Ray Davis. Texas A&M handled business against Arkansas with a 34-22 win. Clemson had a get-right game at Syracuse.Penn State struggled in the first half at Northwestern but hammered the Wildcats in the second half.Georgia fell behind by 10 but came back to beat Auburn. After this, are we sure the Bulldogs are the favorite to win the national title? Auburn has been fairly average all season, but the Tigers went toe-to-toe with the Bulldogs all day.Next week's Kentucky-Georgia game in Athens looks like a fun one.Plus, Michigan finally covers a spread by destroying Nebraska. Texas hammers a Kansas team playing without QB Jalon Daniels.We talk about Notre Dame's comeback win at Duke that required Sam Hartman to scramble for a key first down on fourth-and-16 to set up an Audric Estime touchdown.Ole Miss beat LSU 55-49 in a game that featured 1,343 total yards of offense. We figured this game would be a shootout, but no one expected anything of that level. Tennessee whipped South Carolina in a game when center Cooper Mays returned and the offense looked very different up front than it did in a loss at Florida. Iowa lost starting QB Cade McNamara to injury, but a Cooper DeJean punt return for a touchdown gave the Hawkeyes a win against Michigan State. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
