College Football Championship Week Recap: Cincinnati Makes History, Best Bowl Games, Heisman Race, Oklahoma Hires Venables
Championship week is over, and the College Football Playoff field is officially set! Andrew Stem and Jack provide a recap of the week's college football news, games and stories. How concerning was Georgia's performance vs. Alabama for the Bulldogs, heading into their CFP matchup vs. Michigan? Michigan clinches its first CFP berth in the face of tragedy. Would Cincinnati over Alabama be an even greater upset than 16-seed UMBC taking down 1-seed Virginia in the 2018 NCAA Tournament? Did Alabama playing close games prepare them better for postseason play? Was this the easiest time the committee has ever had picking a top four? Jack and Andrew discuss the weekend's games and how it shapes their view of teams entering bowl season. They also preview the College Football Playoff, share their thoughts on must-see bowl games and which teams got shafted this bowl season. Later, they talk Heisman and share their picks, and provide a rundown of coaching changes, including Lincoln Riley fleeing Oklahoma for USC, Billy Napier taking the Florida job, Brent Venables replacing Riley at Oklahoma, LSU paying a king's ransom for Brian Kelly, Marcus Freeman replacing Kelly at Notre Dame, Mario Cristobal potentially leaving Oregon for Miami and Washington hiring away Fresno State head coach Kalen DeBoer. Lastly, Jack reveals the first draft of his 24-team playoff bracket that he will be posting to jackvita.com later this week and running a simulation on next week.
