College football’s opening weekend delivered chaos, classics, and controversy—and the Red Zone Blitz crew is here to break it all down. Gurpreet, Brandon, and Matthew dive into the biggest headlines: TCU dismantling UNC in Bill Belichick’s college debut, Ohio State’s statement win over Texas, and which Big Ten powerhouse might already be slipping in the playoff race. We hit every major conference with early takeaways, spotlight breakout stars, and sprinkle in some NFL quick hits—including depth chart surprises, Micah Parsons trade fallout, and fantasy football draft nuggets. Plus, the Blitz Fam mailbag asks: is CFB better without Saban, which fanbase is most underrated, and who’s your deserted island highlight reel pick?
