Georgia’s Chris Cole (#9) was all over the field against Oklahoma. Finished with 3 run stops, 3 pressures, 2 coverage stops, and 2 fumble recoveries (one of which he returned 85 yards for a TD). The former 5-star is playing like he’ll be the first LB off the board in April.

College football Week 4 superlatives Top QB: Dylan Raiola, Oregon Top playmaker: Jeremiah Smith, Ohio State/Carlos Hernandez, Wake Forest Top defender: Colin Simmons, Texas Top OL: Florida Top transfer (offense): Oklahoma State trio (Drew Mestemaker, Wyatt Young, Caleb Hawkins)

150

Mississippi State’s Kamario Taylor continues to add to his Heisman resume with this dime to take the lead against Missouri. Most talented QB in the country and the potential No. 1 pick in the 2028 NFL Draft.

061

Daeden Hopkins is a game-wrecker for Missouri. The sophomore is now up to 3.5 sacks tonight with this rip-n-dip. Hopkins came into tonight Top 10 in the country in pressures (16).

Missouri’s Austin Simmons has such a live arm and he’s been showing it off tonight. Has had a couple of dimes. Drops this one in Cayden Lee’s bucket. Simmons continues to bolster his NFL Draft stock.

Jackson Harris has been a stud tonight for LSU. The Hawaii transfer has over 160 receiving yards and two scores. Ball tracking has been super impressive. He was Hawaii’s best playmaker last season with 963 yards and 12 TDs

031

Oklahoma State’s Wyatt Young has been unstoppable tonight. He and Drew Mestemaker are so much fun to watch. At North Texas last season, Young was second nationally in yards per route run (3.69) with Mestemaker throwing to him

USC’s Jahkeem Stewart has been a monster in his first game back for the Trojans this season. The 19-year-old has a scary blend of twitch and size. Last year as a freshman, Stewart flashed NFL traits

Don’t even care that this was called back, Oregon’s Jamari Johnson is incredible. Ball skills and catch radius are big-time (has just two career drops). That’s a first-round pick

070

Perfect bucket drop from Oklahoma State QB Drew Mestemaker. The former walk-on led the country in passing yards at North Texas last year (4,379) and is Top 20 this year

150

Alabama’s Josh Ford may have just made the catch of the year. Looking like Odell Beckham Jr. bringing this down

081

Kamario Taylor is an alien. Ridiculous arm talent and the best deep ball thrower in the country. Taylor leads the SEC in TD passes (12) and came into today Top 10 nationally in QBR (89.3)

060

Angry run from LSU’s Dilin Jones but watch left tackle Jordan Seaton. Explodes out of his stance to clear the hole and ensure Jones is untouched until he’s well down the field. Seaton is such a gifted athlete

Alabama’s Ryan Coleman-Williams looking like his old self making big plays and catching touchdowns. He came into tonight averaging over 19 yards per reception (he also hasn’t dropped a pass since Week 1).

Nasty forklift from Oregon’s Bear Alexander for the third down sack against his former team. He’s been arguably the Ducks best defender this year. Alexander came into today with the second-most defensive stops on the team (8).

Watching West Virginia run the ball at a high-level under Rich Rodriguez just feels so right. The Cam Cook & Michael Hawkins Jr. one-two punch feels like old times with Pat White and Steve Slaton.

Iowa gets revenge on Michigan for Western Michigan by scoring a game-winning touchdown on the final play of the game. College GameDay better head to Iowa City next week for Ohio State @ Iowa.

Florida sophomore Jayden Woods is going to be a high draft pick in 2028. One of the scariest pass rushers in the country. Wins with a double swipe-rip for the strip sack. Woods came into today with 10 pressures and 3 sacks on the season.

Florida State shouldn’t think twice and should hire Florida offensive coordinator Buster Faulkner. Wisconsin shouldn’t think twice and should hire New Mexico head coach Jason Eck.

000

The stop-start ability and overall athleticism of Deuce Alexander on full display here. The Ole Miss star is one of the best big-play WRs in the country. Alexander was No. 50 on the Freaks List in the summer, reportedly hitting 23 mph on the GPS.

Utah running back Wayshawn Parker has been running ANGRY today. Has put several Iowa State defenders into the dirt. Parker is averaging over four yards per carry after contact this season.

041

Jadan Baugh doing Jadan Baugh things for Florida. Just such a hard player to get to the ground with his elite contact balance. Now has 10 rushing TDs on the season (most in the country). Baugh came into today second nationally in forced missed tackles (27). First-round pick

070

Wicked fourth down stop by Iowa’s Cam Buffington (#33) on the QB sneak. Buffington is a budding star for the Hawkeyes. He played 8-man football in high school and now he’s one of the best LBs in the country. Came into today leading Iowa in defensive stops (17)

John Mateer gonna John Mateer, and Chris Cole gonna Chris Cole. One is a bad QB and the other is a potential first-round pick

411821

Dylan Riley already has 93 rushing yards and a TD against Western Michigan. Boise State’s already scored more points (15) than Michigan did against the Broncos. The race between Boise State, New Mexico, North Dakota State, and James Madison for the G6 CFP spot is going to be fun

000

Georgia just makes everything look so easy. Gunner Stockton already has the Bulldogs up 14-0 on Oklahoma. Stockton came into today 2nd nationally in QBR (95.2). Should he be in the Heisman convo?

Wake Forest just blocked a game-tying field goal to upset Louisville on the road. Jake Dickert is such an underrated coach. And the Demon Deacons have an absolute dude in Carlos Hernandez

Jeremiah Smith putting the DB in a spin cycle with his stem work. His explosion at that size is crazy. Smith now has four TDs and over 200 receiving yards. This looks like a Heisman winner

Back-to-back sacks from Colin Simmons. Wins with a push-pull and then just uses the athleticism to hunt Faizon down as a spy. He’s been a force today. The projected Top 10 pick has four sacks today and 18 in his last 15 games.

120

Texas star Colin Simmons hit with unsportsmanlike conduct after sacking Faizon Brandon for “simulating using the restroom.” Pretty good descriptor by the ref

2633232

Wake Forest’s Carlos Hernandez is the best WR in the country nobody is talking about. Already has 139 yards against Louisville. Hernandez came into today tied with Jeremiah Smith for the most explosive plays among WRs in the country (11), and adds another here.

This is awesome from Tennessee’s Kayin Lee to stay calm and attack the football against one of the top WRs in the country. Lee is one of the most underrated CBs in the country and one of the Vols top prospects. Allowed just a 51.4% completion percentage last year at Auburn.

060

Perfect ball placement from Texas QB Arch Manning. The highs are so high with him. It’s easy to see why he’s the favorite to go No. 1 when he’s making these throws. Manning came in today with a 4.8% big-time throw rate
