Episode Details

The Cover 3 crew reacts the updated College Football Playoff rankings. First, a blind guess of the new top 10 as they are being released (1:51) and then a deep dive into the top positions just outside the top four with the case and path for No. 6 Alabama (6:07) and No. 5 Ohio State (9:53). Then, whether TCU is a lock to make the playoff regardless of its result in the Big 12 title game (14:45) and how these rankings would look in the future expanded playoff era (16:00). Plus, thoughts on Brent Key's hire at Georgia Tech (20:21) and more coaching carousel talk.
