On Saturday Cadence, Big Ten dominance over the SEC, Alabama’s early struggles, and a full preview of Michigan vs Oklahoma.
Week 1 of the college football season delivered fireworks across the country, and Saturday Cadence is here to break it all down and look ahead to Week 2.
Blake Biscardi and David Wertheim dive into the biggest storylines, starting with the Big Ten’s dominance over the SEC. Ohio State took down Texas in a top-10 matchup, LSU outlasted Clemson, and Miami made a statement, while Alabama suffered an early-season setback.
With the Big Ten claiming the last two national titles, the balance of power appears to be shifting north.
The crew then previews this week’s headline showdown: Michigan at Oklahoma. Bryce Underwood faces his first road test as the Wolverines’ quarterback, while Wink Martindale’s defense looks to slow down John Mateer and the Sooners’ high-powered offense. Can Michigan continue to prove it belongs atop the sport, or will Oklahoma notch a program-defining victory at home?
Finally, it’s time for the Saturday Seven Picks, where Blake and David make their selections against the spread and straight up for seven of Week 2’s most intriguing games.
