Episode Synopsis

The College Football Playoff selection committee faces criticism for perceived inconsistencies in ranking teams like Notre Dame and Miami. Notre Dame, with a dominant four-game stretch, dropped in rankings, while Miami, also strong, jumped up. Alabamas ranking rise, despite a loss, further confuses observers. The current structure, mandating conference champions, leaves out strong independent teams. Some suggest a simple ranking of the twelve best teams, regardless of conference, for a more exciting and fair playoff.The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story. AI Powered. Hosted on Acast.
