Mailbag! Hot or not, debating best vs. most deserving for rankings, more (11/03)

from Cover 3 College Football · host CBS Sports, College Football, Football, CFB, College Football Picks

The Cover 3 crew answers listener questions on ranking teams and hot takes. First, analysis of Georgia Southern’s hire of Clay Helton to take over its football program (2:33) and a new spin on “Hot or Not” rating the heat of takes from around college football (11:00). Then it’s on to the Big Ole Bag of Mail with an appropriately-timed question on how teams are ranked — should it be the “best” teams or the most “most deserving” teams (27:25)? Plus, identifying candidates for a hypothetical Group of Five Heisman award (44:15), some love for Auburn (47:35) and a specific coaching decision question for late-game scenarios (53:20).  Cover 3 is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.  Watch Cover 3 on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/cover3 Follow our hosts on Twitter: @Chip_Patterson, @TomFornelli, @DannyKanell, @BudElliott3 For more college football coverage from CBS Sports, visit https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/ To hear more from the CBS Sports Podcast Network, visit https://www.cbssports.com/podcasts/ To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
