Colin is joined by former Alabama QB and ESPN college football analyst Greg McIlory to break down the playoff rankings and preview the playoff!

They start by discussing how much of a “cold weather” advantage Big Ten teams will have when hosting SEC teams from a warmer climate (3:00). They debate whether Georgia’s mediocre O-line could sink them in the playoffs when faced with a team with a strong defensive front like Penn State (5:00) and explain why fans shouldn’t judge Oregon for their narrow escape over Wisconsin (8:15)

They discuss why Alabama has been overlooked due to living in the shadow of Nick Saban (13:00) and whether Texas is the best “eye test” team in the country (22:30). They parse what to make of Colorado and whether they deserve to make the playoff (28:00) and debate what Ohio State’s true identity is besides “talented” (31:00)

Finally, they try to diagnose what is “off” about LSU (44:30) and end with who could be the surprise team in the playoff and why a Lane Kiffin vs Steve Sarkisian matchup in the national championship isn’t out of the question (59:30).
