Week 2 Preview: Michigan at Oklahoma, Cy-Hawk Rivalry & More | Just Another College Football Podcast

Week Two is packed with pivotal showdowns, and we’re breaking down the biggest spotlight games in this episode of Just Another College Football Podcast.

Michigan at Oklahoma steals the headlines in a marquee Big Ten vs. SEC clash. The Wolverines bring 2025’s most promising freshman QB in Bryce Underwood, who dazzled in his debut, but he’ll face a hostile Norman crowd and the dual-threat of OU’s transfer QB, John Mateer. Both defenses pack heat, so expect a gritty, narrative-defining showdown. 

Next up: the annual Cy-Hawk rivalry—Iowa vs. Iowa State. Ranked No. 16, Iowa State enters red-hot after a Week 0 win in Ireland and a dominant follow-up, while Iowa will bank on its ground game under sophomore QB Mark Gronowski. Rocco Becht holds the edge under center, but rivalry intensity makes this a coin-flip. 

Beyond those, we’ll skim the rest of the Week Two slate, including Big Ten picks, betting insights, and mentions of games that could fly under the radar—plus what these early results hint at for the playoff race.
