SVP and Stanford Steve Coughlin recap the Texas Longhorns miracle comeback over the Ohio State Buckeyes, the Oregon Ducks’ stunning defeat to Oklahoma State and more. Texas scored 21 4th quarter points en route to a program-defining comeback win. The guys break down the game from every angle, and Steve offers his takeaways from a first-person point of view as the Big Man was boots on the ground in DKR. Madness ensued earlier in the day, too, as Oklahoma State - who got wrecked by Tulsa in Week 1 - pulled off the unthinkable and knocked off Oregon, who has not looked good to start the season. What to make of Dan Lanning's group and QB Dante Moore, who struggled late against the Pokes. Michigan bounced back with a nice 17-10 win over Oklahoma in the Big House. The guys discuss what allowed the Wolverines to pickup the huge win and leave the Western Michigan fiasco a thing of the past. Additionally, Alabama blanked Kentucky 32-0 in the second half to easily get out of trouble in Lexington, Tennessee largely rolled to a stress-free road win over Georgia Tech, Mississippi State dominated Minnesota, Iowa won the CyHawk Game despite trailing early, Texas Tech held on in "mean" Corvallis, the ACC had a nice day, Steve's Big 12 prediction is looking better and better by the week, and the Dirty Terps kept vibes high in the Rent.
