Welcome to the chaos and glory of College Football 26. If you're not vibing with the madness yet, you're seriously missing out. Between the new College Ultimate Team, Dynasty CFB 26 Coins, and Road to Glory modes, there's more content than ever to grind, flex, and straight-up dominate.

And let me tell you-this isn't just a "day one grind" story. It's a full-blown saga. From building the craziest cut squad in the game to pulling limited editions, running wild with Johnny Football, and surviving one of the sweatiest onside-kick comebacks imaginable, this article is your front-row seat to the most electrifying week one in College Football 26 history.

The Cut Squad: Absolute Madness from Day One

Right out the gate, the mission was simple: build the most cracked team in the game. We're talking limited-time cards, top-tier freshmen, legends-you name it. And yes, we went all in. Packs opened? Too many. Coins spent? Despicable. Vibes? Immaculate.

Here's what the Cut Squad looked like:

 QB: Limited Time Johnny Manziel (aka Johnny Football)

 HB: Texas's Ricky Williams (86 OVR)

 WRs: Jeremiah Smith, Squirrel White, Ryan Williams, and Dorian Moore

 TE: Tanner Quisel (who? Doesn't matter-he's got hands)

 O-Line: 87 OVR units across the board

 Defense: Icy Hopkins, Leonard Moore, DeAngelo Ponds, Mr. Clark, and an 85+ rated D-line

 LBs: Harold Perkins Jr., Ryan Erlacher, Deontay Lawson, and Zayen Walker

This wasn't just a team-it was college football's version of the Avengers.

Game One: Instant Blowout and First Picks

We hit the field against Leaning Hippie, and it didn't take long to realize we were built different. From lockdown slant coverage to instant interceptions, the squad played like their lives were on the line.

Walker got the first pick-six of the season.

Ponds followed up with another INT.

Johnny Football? Tossing lasers like it's 2012 again.

And when you've got Squirrel White running routes like a madman, you're cooking on every drive.

Game Two: The Onside Kick Sweatfest

Facing Just Joshin You, it looked like another blowout-until the onside kick fiasco. After dominating most of the game (up 11 with a minute to go), this dude got two onside kick recoveries and turned it into a serious fight.

But when it mattered most, our defense clamped.

Coverage sacks?

Fourth-down stops?

Game-winning pick by Walker?

The win was sealed, but College Football 26 showed us how chaotic things can get when onside luck goes the wrong way.

Game Three: The Fantastic Four and the High Ball Masterclass

The next game brought out the chaos in full force. We played against Sir Gunkington, who had his cheese blitzes and double-A gaps dialed in. But we had a secret weapon: the high ball.

Play action, motion zigs, curls for the girls-every route hit for big gains.

Manziel was in full Heisman mode.

Ricky Williams bulldozed through the box.

And our tight end made one of the filthiest catches of the season.

Despite some frustrating aggro catches and missed tackles, the scoreboard stayed in our favor.

Game Four: The Onside Comeback that Wasn't

Playing Woodland Ducks 4, we had one of the sweatiest games of the early season. This dude was running the same motion play every snap.

But despite the predictable offense, he hit some wild conversions, including a ridiculous spin fadeaway that looked more like SGA in the NBA Finals than a college QB.

Yet again, the squad rose to the challenge:

 Jeremiah Smith mossed defenders.

 Squirrel White iced the game with a TD bomb.

 Defense? Fully locked in by the final quarter.

He tried the onside cheese again, but this time we recovered and ended the game with a statement win.

Game Five: The Painful Loss We Needed

Then came the humbling. Against an absolute sweatlord who clearly knew his cut meta, we lost 42-35 in a game that could've gone either way.

From busted coverages to missing onside kick mechanics, everything that could go wrong-did.

But that L? It fueled the fire.

We bounced back immediately.

Game Six: The Squirrel White Show

The next game was personal. After that L, we came in locked and loaded. The goal: dominate from the jump.

 Manziel threw absolute lasers.

 Squirrel White had two bombs, including one where the entire defense literally ran into each other.

 The defense? Picked off everything in sight.

And in one of the most beautiful plays of the day, Ricky Williams broke a tackle, stiff-armed two defenders, and waltzed into the end zone like it was 1998.

It was domination. It was therapy.Offensive Highlights

Let's give the offensive stars their flowers:

 Johnny Manziel: Feels like a mobile Joe Burrow-elite improvisation, dot-throwing, and surprising power on the run.

 Squirrel White: Underrated MVP. This man makes defenders look like middle schoolers. Tracks down balls, stretches plays, and always finds the open lane.

 Ricky Williams: The reliable bruiser. Stiff arms, sheds, and straight-line speed that's dangerous when paired with good blocking.

 And of course-don't sleep on Jeremiah Smith. The dude just catches everything.

Defensive MVPs

Defense wins games-and ours won more than a few:

 Zayen Walker: Always in the right place. Game-sealing picks, clutch tackles, and pick-sixes galore.

 DeAngelo Ponds: Elite ballhawk instincts. Might be the most slept-on DB in the game right now.

 Harold Perkins Jr.: Blitz machine. Whether you send him up the middle or off the edge, he finds the quarterback.
