Ohio State On Upset Watch, Coaching Accountability & Hot Seats

Steve Sarkisian’s defense of Arch Manning and Mike Elko’s comments about Texas A&M fans have George Wrighster asking what accountability looks like in college football.

On this episode of The Unafraid Show, George explains why the expectations for Manning go beyond his last name and why Elko’s clash with Texas A&M’s online fan community was an avoidable mistake.

Plus, Ohio State vs Indiana and Notre Dame vs BYU headline a week built around respect. George picks Indiana to beat the Buckeyes, takes Notre Dame against BYU, and makes the case that Jeremiah Smith belongs in the conversation for the greatest player in Ohio State history.

Also in this episode:

• UCLA’s outlook following Nico Iamaleava’s knee injury and Oregon State’s emerging Cinderella story.
• Notre Dame’s independence, a proposed scheduling fix and conference realignment.
• Mississippi State vs LSU, quarterback questions and George’s criticism of Lane Kiffin.
• Oregon vs Nebraska: Can Dan Lanning’s Ducks bounce back and keep their College Football Playoff hopes alive?
• Miami vs Florida State: Why George puts the Hurricanes on upset alert while picking Miami to win and FSU to cover.
• Mike Norvell’s future and George’s speculation about a possible Oregon coaching connection.
• Coaching pressure involving Mike Locksley, Greg Schiano, Shane Beamer, Dave Doeren and Lincoln Riley.
• George’s Top 25, questionable AP ballots and this week’s “Ball Knower” recognition.
