Week 4 in college football was not good for certain schools in North Carolina (cheer up residents of Raleigh and Chapel Hill), and great for others around the country (here's looking at you, Michigan, for winning without a passing game).

Such is the state of college football in 2024, a time when change is the only true constant. Just look around in Week 4, and everything felt a bit topsy-turvy. In Texas, the headlines were all about the ballyhooed quarterback with the magical name who would lead an undefeated team into battle.

It seemed the college football world moved past Clemson after the opening 34-3 loss to Georgia, but reports of the Tigers’ demise may have been greatly exaggerated. Since that loss, Clemson has a 66-20 win against Appalachian State and a 59-35 win against NC State on Saturday.
