The 2026 football season is underway, covering NFL and college football schedules, betting markets, and NFL Draft scouting. In the NFL, the regular season is scheduled to begin on Wednesday, September 9, with the Seattle Seahawks hosting the New England Patriots. Week 1 features an international game in Australia between the San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams, alongside matchups such as the Dallas Cowboys against the New York Giants. College football Week 1 has been marked by significant controversy and unexpected results. The Mid-American Conference (MAC) has filed formal appeals to the NCAA FBS Oversight Committee and the College Football Playoff regarding the Michigan-Western Michigan game. The MAC alleges that replay protocols were violated when the Big Ten Conference replay crew used an internal clock feed instead of the required program feed, allegedly adding an erroneous second to the clock that allowed Michigan to secure a 13-12 victory. In the SEC, the conference has filed to expel LSU, citing concerns over institutional control following the program's decision to roster former professional players. This follows LSU’s 51-10 victory over Clemson. Other college highlights include Ole Miss defeating Louisville 41-38, led by quarterback Trinidad Chambliss and wide receiver Deuce Alexander. Notre Dame secured a 41-13 victory over Wisconsin, a game that drew social media attention toward head coach Marcus Freeman’s appearance. Additionally, Utah State suffered an upset loss to Idaho State, which head coach Bronco Mendenhall attributed to a forearm injury to quarterback McCae Hillstead. Individual players such as Miami quarterback Darian Mensah and Texas quarterback Arch Manning are already generating Heisman Trophy headlines. Betting markets continue to react to these results, with lines shifting to favor Oklahoma as a road favorite in Ann Arbor for upcoming matchups. ~~Scouting discussions remain focused on 2027 NFL Draft prospects, including Arch Manning and Leonard Moore.~~
