College Football Week 1 recap & reaction: AP Top 25 shake-ups, Texas vs Ohio State fallout, Arch Manning struggles, Alabama vs Florida State reality check, and LSU vs Clemson (17-10) headline a wild opening slate across the SEC, Big Ten, ACC and Big 12. I break down which conference owned the weekend, why Ohio State’s win over Texas resets the CFP conversation, and how Arch’s rocky debut fuels fair (and unfair) narratives. We dig into Alabama’s post-Saban problems after losing to Florida State—nobody fears the Tide right now—plus why Brian Kelly finally grabbing an opener at Clemson matters and why the real story was Garrett Nussmeier vs Cade Klubnik. We hit Utah vs UCLA (tempo, trenches, QB newness), Georgia’s 45-7 cruise vs Marshall and what it says about the Bulldogs’ run game identity, UTSA vs Texas A&M (physicality, explosives, red-zone finishing), Georgia Tech vs Colorado (Buffs’ toughness meter), South Carolina’s 24-11 win over Virginia Tech, and why ESPN FPI is broken for early-season projections. We close with New Mexico vs Michigan (34-17) and what the Wolverines’ performance says about ceiling vs floor. We also look at Oregon Ducks win in Dan Lanning's season opener.

If you want honest Week 1 takeaways, AP Top 25 context, and playoff implications without spin, pull up a chair—this is the Unafraid Show.
