The Athletic Football Show: A show about the NFLMentioned in this episode
Episode Notes
Indiana is the #3 team in the country. Yes, in football. And they aren't the only big surprise this season. Texas A&M, Missouri and Cincinnati all have paths to the Playoff, as well. We've discussed a handful of players from those teams through an NFL Draft lens, but it's not just Fernando Mendoza and Marcel Reed doing work for their respective teams. On this episode of The Athletic Football Show's Building the Beast, Dane Brugler and Dave Helman go into the draft prospects you need to know from college football's surprise teams. The guys also discuss the effects of James Franklin's firing on Penn State's NFL Draft prospects and take a look ahead to Week 8.
