College football coaching buzz: Hot seats, top candidates, games to watch

Last year's college coaching carousel, undoubtedly the wildest in recent history, essentially started after Week 2, when USC dumped Clay Helton.

This year's cycle doesn't project to be quite as robust or nationally significant, but the wait for the first notable development was even shorter. Nebraska's Scott Frost emerged from Week 0 with his job, but how much longer can he hold on to it?

Frost's latest one-score defeat in a Huskers coaching career defined by them -- a 31-28 setback to Northwestern in Dublin -- has put his already-shaky job status in peril. After a 2021 season in which Nebraska became the first team ever to lose nine games by single digits, Frost found a new way to let a winnable game slip out of his grasp.
