Week 3 didn’t disappoint with an unofficial rivalry week, plus an Arch Manning sighting.
Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Podcast Network’s Power Two Podcast. On this show, we talk about Big Ten and SEC football… and everyone else. This show is for the die-hard fans and the casual college football fans.
After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the major matchups of the previous weekend and look ahead at the games, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to for the next week.
My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host DaNaysia Jones. Lock in as we run a power sweep through the college football landscape.
Jordan and DJ recap a pretty quiet Week 3. Quinn Ewers’ injury may inadvertently cause competition for QB1 at Texas as Arch Manning had a breakout game. Will there be a need for him to come back sooner rather than later? Florida’s coach may be the next one on the chopping block. There are already rumblings of a buyout as the Gators try to figure out how to become a winning team again.
In this week’s two-minute drill, Week 3 had so many pseudo-rivalry games. This prompts Jordan to present his brilliant idea for a midseason rivalry week. The Big Ten has so many rivalries that exist within the conference, and with conference realignment many rivalries could be reignited. Instead of doing rivalry week just at the end of the season, how fun would it be to have it between Week 2 and 3 as well?
The power rankings spark a lively discussion on certain teams’ inclusion or exclusion this early in the season. The logic really does not pan out when certain teams are still undefeated and others are not. There are also some teams that do not seem to have earned their spot except in historical contexts. Either way, it’s only Week 3, so we will see how this turns out.
In this week’s Pregame Power Sweep, we suggested these games:
We expect to see some great matchups next week.

- Friday: Illinois - Nebraska
- Noon: Kansas - WVU
- Mid-Day: USC - Michigan & Utah - OK State
- Primetime: Tenn - OU
- After Dark: Kansas State - BYU.
- Honorable Mention: SMU - TCU since it is the last iteration of the Iron Skillet on SMU’s campus.
We expect to see some great matchups next week.
