Welcome back to Bruce & The Bear! Chris "The Bear" Fallica, Bruce Feldman, and Sammy Panayotovich gear up for an action-packed slate of college football, starting on the West Coast with a heavyweight matchup between Oregon and USC.

Over in Gainesville, Ole Miss takes on Florida, where the crew highlights Gators tailback Jadan Baugh—who might just be the best running back in the country—and shines a spotlight on Florida edge rusher Jayden Woods, whose raw power and athleticism earned him the #5 spot on Bruce's famous "Freaks List".The SEC drama continues with Texas A&M visiting LSU. The guys check the temperature in Baton Rouge, dissecting LSU's team morale after a tough loss and asking the ultimate panic-button question: what happens to Lane Kiffin and the Tigers if they drop to 0-2?
