Ari Wasserman joins the show to argue Ohio State's daunting slate makes a four-loss season nearly unthinkable, while also praising Curt Cignetti's "cocky but lovable" rebuild at Indiana and calling Jeremiah Smith a rare throwback in an era where players rarely stay loyal to one program. He also weighs in on Deion Sanders' shaky standing at Colorado, noting the Buffaloes have faded fast since losing stars like Travis Hunter. The segment closes with a quick Browns tangent, as Ari says he can't find a football reason for Deshaun Watson to be starting over Shedeur Sanders.
