Mailbag! Would you rather have an elite DL or shutdown secondary? Plus, rules in CFB vs. NFL, more! (07/06)

The Cover 3 crew talks San Diego State's future and answers listener questions. First, a dive into the messiest conference realignment news of the week with the Mountain West withholding payments to San Diego State in the wake of the break-up/make up that will have the Aztecs remaining in the conference, for now (5:00). Then it's on to listener questions, with topics including whether you would rather have an elite defensive line or a shutdown secondary for your first year as a DC at a Power Five program (14:00), which current Big 12 team will be the next to win a national championship (18:50), whether college football rules should be even more in line with NFL rules (33:10) and much, much more. Cover 3 is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts. Get 20% off Cover 3 merch in the CBS Sports Store: https://store.cbssports.com/collections/cover-3?utm_source=podcast-apple-com&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=buy-our-merch&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 https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/To hear more from the CBS Sports Podcast ...
