This week’s episode of Not A Football is brought to you by JUICE KIFFIN, future head coach of the University of Auburn and part of the Lane’s Secret family.

The gang's all here this week (including at least three pets). Grace, Britt, Keelin, and Jesse break down week 6 of college football and look ahead to week 7.
Lane is Learning: Lane still doesn’t have the eye contact thing figured out (maybe he stared at the sun too long in that FAU video), but he is closer and closer to becoming sentient. Is it possible an undefeated Ole Miss will face an undefeated Alabama? There is still a chance!
Texas A&M Narrowly Misses Alabama Upset: A Bryce Young-less Alabama beat Texas A&M by a mere four points (24-20). Redshirt freshman Jalen Milroe stepped in for Bryce Young and was… shaky. Nick Saban reported that Young is improving, it is uncertain if he will be back to face Tennessee this week. Can Alabama maintain an undefeated record without Young? Let’s find out.
The Brian Ferentz Paradox: In the first half of the Illinois-Iowa game, Iowa had the ball six times and recorded negative yardage on four of those drives. As Iowa continues its downward spiral (first spiral for the Hawkeyes in years), it is difficult not to ask “What, if anything, will change?” As Brian Ferentz’s head is continuously called for, Ferentz shared that he has no plans to make changes to his staff. So, uh, there’s that. This weekend, Iowa has a bye week, but their next game is against Ohio State. So, uh, there’s also that.
Baseball is Canceled: Baseball, you have taken enough from this collective podcasting collective. You are formally canceled. Football, you now have our undivided attention.
Bowls of Iron and Juicy Eggs: While there are clear leaders in the SEC, there are a variety of rivalry games that could shake things up. We don’t know what will happen but we do know there will be spite.
Breaking The Rhule: Grace is not having it with the new unemployed and loaded Matt Rhule sucking up to bratty 16-year-olds. However, the reality is that is exactly the situation Matt Rhule is likely to end up in. But where will he land? Let’s talk about Auburn and Nebraska.
What is Nebraska?: Speaking of Nebraska, what exactly is Nebraska? This timeless question is once again being considered when we discuss the Nebraska football landscape and really, the state itself.
Who Will Be The King of Cow Town?: So if Matt Rhule does not go to Nebraska, what will stop him from going to Auburn? Let us consider “Sentient Sweater Vest with A God Complex” Urban Meyer in Auburn. He will have to face Saban at least once a year and is guaranteed to break up some marriages. As a podcast collective, the chaos is magnetizing.
Vibez Pickz: What’s that saying…”You can pick your friends, you can pick your bets, but you can’t pick your friends bets?” No, that’s not it. Here are some bets, as friends, we picked together: Kansas (over Oklahoma), Indiana (over Maryland), Georgia (over Vanderbilt), UNC (over Duke). That’s right. We are favoring mostly underdogs this week, and you’ll like it!
It’s Been [2] Weeks Since The Last Goal Post Came Down: We’ve been keeping track, and no goal posts were harmed in this week of college football.
Tune in next as we bring you the latest coaching updates, game results, and MORE betting picks!
