In Episode 2 of Game Runs Deep, Sudu Upadhyay and Ben Garrett dive into the biggest takeaways from Week 1 of college football.

Can Arch Manning bounce back after his shaky debut at Ohio State? Was Alabama’s loss more about the Tide being down, or Florida State’s dominance? We break down Ole Miss QB Austin Simmons’ starting debut, the Rebels’ run game, and their defense heading into Kentucky.

Plus, Cade Klubnik vs. Garrett Nussmeier—has Nussmeier already seized the Heisman frontrunner spot? We also take a look at John Mateer and Jackson Arnold’s new beginnings and much more as Week 2 looms.
