College football’s chaos era is here: Texas rallies, Oregon falls and Lane Kiffin eyes return to Ole Miss

If you were waiting for chaos to encompass college football , the second week of the 2026 season delivered in a chaotic way on Saturday.

We started the day with Michigan taking down No.

11 Oklahoma in the Big House, and ended it with No.

5 Texas pulling-off a 20-point comeback to shock No.

1 Ohio State in what might turn out to be one of the wildest fourth quarters we witness this season.

ARCH MANNING AND TEXAS LONGHORNS ERASE 20-POINT DEFICIT TO STUN OHIO STATE IN SHOCKING COMEBACK FOR THE AGES But, in the middle of what was a remarkable day in the sport, Oklahoma State decided to create pure madness in Stillwater in their win over No.

6 Oregon that sent shockwaves through the college football world.

Look, we knew it was going to get a little wild this season.

But, the Ducks falling this early in the season, to the Cowboys? This turned out to be a rough day for the Big Ten conference, even with Michigan taking down the Sooners in Ann Arbor.

You know, just how we thought it would go, right? No.

I've seen a collapse before, but what we witnessed on Saturday night in Austin, Texas, was shocking.

The Buckeyes held a 23-3 lead entering the fourth quarter, and everything we had seen up until that point had Ryan Day heading back to Columbus with a monster win.

But, it turns out the football gods had other plans for everyone either watching inside DKR Stadium or at home.

It was Arch Manning that led a struggling Texas offense from the ashes, just after the internal speaker system finished playing 'Dont Stop Believing' throughout the stadium.
