The Cover 3 crew discusses the updated college football rankings. With a delayed rankings release due to double-overtime in the Champions Classic, the Cover 3 crew starts live with the reveal at the back end of the rankings (1:48) before getting to the first big debate of the week with USC getting the nod over Alabama for No. 7 (6:00). Then with the full rankings revealed it’s on to whether TCU should have gotten the No. 3 spot ahead of Michigan (9:15) and how the committee treated Utah (14:13), North Carolina (16:15) and Washington (19:56).
