NIU Head Coach Thomas Hammock, The Anatomy of an Upset, Is Texas Back, and Week 3 Picks

Northern Illinois shocked the college football world and “The Triple Option” is at the epicenter of it all.
Urban Meyer, Mark Ingram II, and Rob Stone break down the upset of Notre Dame by the Huskies and the emotion that comes with a monumental win. The Texas Longhorns took care of business in Ann Arbor, something Mark saw coming a mile away. What’s next for the Irish and the Wolverines? (5:30)
Then, the architect of the upset of the season, NIU Head Coach Thomas Hammock joined the guys. Coach took us into the moment that beating the fifth ranked team in the country became a reality, how to build team culture in the era of NIL, and the transfer portal, and the emotion of leading his alma mater into the AP Top 25. (32:15)
An impressive performance in a loss of an Auburn recruit led to a trip down memory lane of the most dominant high school performances Coach Meyer has ever seen (calling Percy Harvin). The guys made their Week Three Pick Six including a pair of rivalry games out west in Oregon and Washington and the hottest team in the country you will never guess. #BearDown. (50:00)
