247sports Morning Blitz

We waited longer than usual this fall for the initial College Football Playoff rankings from the committee, but a storyline-laden release made it worth it on Tuesday. Trey and Chris Hummer get together to discuss the implications from the Group of Five land, whether the top four of Alabama, Notre Dame, Clemson and Ohio State is correct, the fact that Oklahoma is a sleeper to keep an eye on and wonder why in the world Georgia is No. 9!

Thursday's college football slate isn't as robust as it usually is on Thanksgiving. Ohio State and Michigan won't be playing this weekend. And if recent times are any indication, we might lose some games a few hours before kickoff. But there are still some really compelling matchups this weekend, and for that we're thankful.

Chris Hummer joins guest host Brandon Marcello to discuss what to expect moving forward after Week 12 of college football, including the susceptibility of Ohio State, Clemson, Notre Dame and Alabama. Who is the best? Is there even a true favorite to win the national championship after all four teams have shown glaring weaknesses. Also, what does the rest of the season look like as we deal with more cancelations on the eve of the first College Football Playoff Rankings.

It's Friday, which means Trey is quickly recapping the news to know and the weekend games to watch and then turning things over to a 247Sports network podcast that caught our eye. This week, we'll listen to ESPN reporters Andrea Adelson and David Hale discuss with Noles247's Brendan Sonnone what they learned in reporting an exhaustive tick-tock of Florida State's demise as a football program.

We have a coaching triangle episode of sorts. Trey and 247Sports' Steve Wiltfong start by chatting about the Indiana and its 4-0 start with Ohio State looming Saturday, and it's clear Wiltfong is swept up in some local Hoosier fever. But Trey what Trey really wants to know is ... Is Tom Allen long for Bloomington? In addition to giving his take on that, Wiltfong makes the case for Jim Harbaugh to return in 2021. If he doesn't, don't expect Luke Fickell to leave Cincinnati for Ann Arbor.

There is trouble in Baton Rouge. According to USA Today, officials in LSU's athletic department and broader administration repeatedly have ignored complaints against abusers in a campus-wide mishandling of sexual misconduct. It grabs our attention in this space for what it alleges about Ed Orgeron's football program; nine LSU football players were reported to police for sexual misconduct and dating violence in the last four years. Trey interviews Kenny Jacoby, one of the USA Today reporters behind the investigation, about the details of the story, whether these transgressions compare to other recent cases in college football and what happens next to LSU and, potentially, its football program.

History might say otherwise, but Trey Scott and guest Brad Crawford don't think there's an excuse for South Carolina to not be an every-once-in-a-while contender in the SEC East. What's it going to take to unlock any extra potential in Columbia, and who of the many initial coaching candidates — guys like Hugh Freeze, Billy Napier and Shane Beamer — are the best bets?

Trey and Chris Hummer get together to talk about Week 11's action, which was better than we expected and saw several coaches toil in misery and Florida's Kyle Trask emphasize his Heisman case. Note: Will Muschamp was fired shortly after recording, but our thoughts on the matter will stand the test of time.  Host: Trey Scott   Guest: Chris Hummer Follow or Subscribe to The College Football Daily on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Two proud, winless teams charge into Lincoln this weekend. Winner exhales. Loser continues with a season that feels rather pointless. Trey asks Penn State reporter Tyler Donohue and Nebraska reporter Michael Bruntz about the state of their programs.

It's Tuesday in November, which means we're usually talking playoff rankings. In 2020, we will have to wait a little longer for the committee's official verdict, but that doesn't mean Chris Hummer can't give us his projected top 6. We talk about that and the hypothetical scenarios that have our attention.

Trey and Chris Hummer break down week 10. Notre Dame vs Clemson looked like the game of the year, while Florida cemented itself in the title chase with a convincing win over Georgia. The Pac-12 returned, SEC east hopefuls take big hits, and Michigan continues to flounder. All that and more on the College Football Daily.

Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly is bristling this week at the notion that Saturday's game vs. No. 1 Clemson is a measuring-stick test for his program. In some ways, he's right, Irish Illustrated's Tim O'Malley tells Trey. But that doesn't mean the game is any less important — or vital — for a perennial top 10 program team trying to re-crack the national elite.

This is Dan Mullen's best chance to win the SEC East. But Kirby Smart doesn't plan on letting that happen, even with an offensively-challenged Bulldogs team. Trey brings in Jake Rowe of Dawgs247 and Thomas Goldkamp of Swamp247 to cover Saturday's clash in Jacksonville to talk about keys to the game, the mood around the program and what the game is usually defined by (the ground attack and, in a normal year, incredible tailgating).

The world's foremost expert on DJ Uiagalelei is 247Sports' Greg Biggins, who first saw DJ Uiagalelei when the now-Clemson QB was in seventh grade. Biggins shares his memories with Trey, from concerns that DJ was too big to what led DJ to leave the West Coast despite offers from all over.

Trey Scott and Chris Hummer run through the stop storylines of Week 9, such as Ohio State's impressive win over Penn State, Clemson's near-death experience vs. Boston College and what the Tigers will do without Trevor Lawrence at Notre Dame. Jim Harbaugh and Tom Herman had very different weekends on the hot seat. The Florida-Georgia game is vital to the Playoff race, but both teams might be several men down. Plus, the Group of 5's Playoff chances come into focus.

Wisconsin was forced to cancel Saturday's game vs. Nebraska, which further illustrates how narrow the Big Ten's path is to playing enough games this season to "qualify" for the College Football Playoff. Trey Scott and Chris Hummer place the blame squarely at the feet of Kevin Warren.
