Episode Notes

Ralph Russo returns from his trip to Italy to find college football in full chaos. The 24-team playoff has gone from a whisper to a roar. The ACC and Big 12 on board, while ESPN and the SEC pump the brakes. What's actually driving this? And does the math work? Then, Brendan Sorsby files a suit that Bruce and Stew find unconvincing. Plus, the guys pick their favorite Week One games and under-the-radar matchups.
