College Football Playoff Rankings Reaction: Georgia jumps Ohio State, TCU into top four, Notre Dame enters top 25 (11/08)

The Cover 3 crew breaks down the updated CFP rankings and talks playoff chase. First, what the committee saw in placing TCU ahead of Tennessee (2:00), why Clemson’s ranking was higher than where the Tigers fell in the AP poll (5:09), whether Notre Dame should be penalized for its bad losses (6:30) and if LSU has a real shot at making the playoff (9:30). Then, how Michigan overcomes a lack of quality wins with a well-balanced statistical profile (12:43), where Group of Five teams fell in the rankings (18:23) and one of the biggest head-scratchers being the separation between USC and UCLA (23:04). Plus, stacking up the three-loss teams like Texas and Kentucky (28:00) and the teams that likely just missed the cut for the top 25 (31:35). Cover 3 is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts. Nominate the Cover 3 Podcast in the “Sports” category of the The People’s Choice Podcast Awards! http://podcastawards.com/app/signupGet 20% off Cover 3 merch in the CBS Sports Store: https://store.cbssports.com/collections/cover-3?utm_source=podcast-apple-com&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=buy-our-merch&amp;utm_content=cover-3-collectionWatch Cover 3 on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/cover3Follow our hosts on Twitter: @Chip_Patterson, @TomFornelli, @DannyKanell, @BudElliott3For more college football coverage from CBS Sports, visit <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.cbssports.com_college-2Dfootball_&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=jGUuvAdBXp_VqQ6t0yah2g&amp;r=99K5MuDO7uktD7sLxqJ-8ySDxcUzvgEugyoZUqPJpWf7na ...
