College Football Week 7 gave us everything — upsets, firings, and statement wins. Matt Brown and Ryan Page breaks down the wildest weekend of the season so far, starting with James Franklin’s firing at Penn State after a stunning loss to Northwestern that sent the Nittany Lions spiraling. Then we look at how eight Top 25 teams went down, shaking up the playoff picture completely.

Indiana made history with a program-defining win over No. 3 Oregon, Texas took the Red River Rivalry, and Alabama survived a slugfest against Missouri in a Top 15 showdown. Plus, UCLA quietly keeps stacking wins, and Texas A&M stays perfect behind one of the most disciplined teams in the country.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
