The latest College Football Playoff rankings have been released. Alabama is back in the playoffs despite two really bad losses, while Miami falls out of the top 12 after losing to Syracuse. With conference title games coming up this weekend, which team has the most to lose before the final rankings are announced? SMU or Boise State? Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz and Adam Breneman nail it all with their immediate reactions.

The trio will then be joined by South Carolina head coach Shane Beamer. After a six-game winning streak, the Gamecocks are one of the hottest teams in the country, but will that be enough to clinch their way into the playoffs before Sunday? Beamer makes the case for South Carolina making the playoffs, reveals the key to the team’s recent success and his perspective on player development in the transfer portal era.

Caroline, Fitz & Adam preview the SEC, Big 10, ACC, Big 12 and Mountain West conference championships. With a first-round bye at stake for the four highest-ranked winners, these title games have more to offer than ever before.
