Conference championship weekend is here! Spots in the College Football Playoff are on the line, and not just for teams in Power Four conferences. Could we see two Group of Five teams in this year? Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey preview what they are most interested in this weekend. First, they preview the matchup between the nation's highest ranked teams. #1 Ohio State faces #2 Indiana for the Big Ten Championship Game. Although this game does not have much of an effect on either team making the Playoff, it may tell us a lot about what to expect in the Playoff. Then, it's the Big 12 Championship Game between #11 BYU and #4 Texas Tech. A win for Tech secures a first round bye, but is there a path for BYU to make the Playoff even with a loss in the title game? One of the guys thinks that may be possible. Lastly, they look at the ACC Championship Game and its impact on the CFP. Duke takes on #17 Virginia. Virginia will make the CFP if they win, but Duke coach Manny Diaz thinks that a 7-5 ACC champion Duke team would also make the field. Could this be the case, or would it pave a path for multiple Group of Five teams? The guys debate all of this and more.
Later, Ross' Congressional Minute gives an update on the SCORE Act's progress in Congress, or more appropriately, the lack of progress. Ross explains why there has been another delay with the act and if there is any light at the end of the tunnel for its supporters. The guys discuss why there is so much controversy around this act and what needs to happen in the future for any progress to be made.
Finally, Andy, Ross and Godfrey give their picks for this week's I've Got A Feeling. Their records have not been great this year, but maybe that will change this week. Georgia, Tulane and Western Michigan are this week's choices.
