Show Notes
Justin Wilcox is out at Cal after nine seasons following a blowout loss to Stanford in the Big Game. In a surprising twist, Nick Rolovich is named interim head coach. The guys discuss potential replacements, including Tosh Lupoi, Sean Lewis, and Jim Mora.
Rivalry week is here with massive playoff implications. Could Alabama actually play themselves OUT of the playoff by losing the SEC Championship Game? Ralph and Stew debate whether the committee would drop a 10-3 Alabama team after losing a 13th game. They also discuss scenarios where Michigan beats Ohio State and crashes the at-large pool, and Georgia Tech upsets Georgia with head-to-head chaos. Plus, why the committee's head-to-head logic only seems to apply to certain conferences.
Also, the guys make their picks for Texas A&M at Texas, Ohio State at Michigan, Miami at Pitt, and Tennessee at Vanderbilt, with one rivalry game upset each.
