How Week 10 upsets will impact first CFP rankings + Auburn fires Hugh Freeze
Description
Week 10 is in the books and there were plenty of upsets to help create drama for Tuesday's first CFP rankings release. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss all of the drama that unfolded and the impact it may have this week. #18 Oklahoma kept their playoff hopes alive after knocking off #14 Tennessee. Will they be able to pull off a few more wins and make the playoff? Arch Manning is starting to round into form as he led #20 Texas to a win over #9 Vanderbilt. Does Vandy still have a path to the CFP and is Texas surging after a rough start to the season? #23 USC went into Lincoln and came out with a win over Nebraska. What does their path to the playoff look like? Plus, #8 Georgia Tech and #10 Miami were upset by unranked teams on Saturday. How does this affect the battle for the ACC's playoff spot? Also, how does Miami's loss hurt #12 Notre Dame?
Then, the coaching carousel continues to spin as yet another big program has decided to move on from their head coach. Auburn has fired Hugh Freeze in his third season. The guys discuss where everything went wrong for Auburn and why Freeze wasn't the right guy for the job. They also talk about who they think is the perfect hire to take over the role. We recorded this before the firing was official, but the crew expected it to happen soon. Since it had not happened yet, they talk knowing that Freeze was still the head coach of Auburn during the time of recording
Later, they dive back into previewing the upcoming CFP rankings. How many teams might the Big Ten have in the playoff? Who do the guys think will be the Group of Five representative? They have felt confident about the American conference, but is there another team that is making a push? Plus, will the ACC or the Big 12 have multiple teams make the CFP? Also, Ross shares the most recent update on the CFP expansion talk.
