Show Notes
Though there was little change atop the College Football Playoff rankings in week two, the scant movement spurred an extensive CFP discuss between Andy and Ari. If Texas A&M keeps piling on Ws, will they leap frog Ohio State (1:00)? What's impeding OSU from securing a comfortable position among the top-4? Under which circumstance is Ohio State truly in danger of being ousted? The guys react to Gary Barta's comments about the committee's reasoning behind the Buckeyes' present standing (8:45). Did the Big Ten "screw" Ohio State (14:00)? Was implementing a six-game minimum to compete in the conference championship nearsighted? What can the division take from what the ACC is doing with Clemson and Notre Dame? Another rollicking round of 'Alive or Dead' (20:30) shepherds the duo to Ohio State playoff hypotheticals (35:00). Andy then welcomes OrangeBloods.com columnist, Anwar Richardson, to chat the state of the Texas Longhorns (39:45). Typing post haste to get to the largest matter at hand: what's the game plan against KU? On a more serious note, what's the 411 on Tom Herman's job security? Is Urban Meyer the go-to coach should Herman get the ax? Are Mario Cristobal and/or Matt Campbell serious contenders to run the program, and could a BBQ series lure Andy away from The Athletic?
