Welcome to Episode 48.2! We are previewing the only B1G game! Purdue v. Michigan PUR QB Aidan O'Connell lost his brother earlier this week. Would anyone blame him if he chose NOT to play? Do we think he'll play? Blake Corum is out, and Mazi Smith has been charged with a gun crime. ----Will there be a detraction from the overall Wolverine performance? Does Purdue have any shot? Does a Purdue win hurt Ohio St. if USC wins & the Buckeyes don't make the #CFP? CFP Rankings What can happen that would change the top 4: UGA, MICH, TCU, USC? Should a team be punished for losing what has been acknowledged, by the committee, as a "bonus game?" Who is in "no matter what happens?" TCU has more "good wins" than multiple top 5 teams. Notre Dame was better than what most thought they were after losing to Marshall. 2 of their 4 losses are to top 5 teams (OSU & USC) Beat #9 Clemson What would a playoff team w/more than 2 losses look like in an expanded playoff scenario, this year? CFP Expansion Rose Bowl agrees to amend the final two years of the current CFP contract in order to start an expanded playoff (12 teams) as early as next year! Is this a good thing? Sam urges the CFP to give a certain group of the 12 teams a reward! #HEADLINES!
