The Cover 3 crew talks teams that could disappoint, the playoff, Big Ten schedules and more. First, a live listener question on the expectations for Florida State and Miami in 2023 (1:06) then some discussion on the future of the College Football Playoff in the wake of executive director Bill Hancock announcing his retirement plans (3:20). Then it's on to more mailbag questions, including the worst Power Five team this season (10:04), teams that won't live up to the hype (16:00), the potential for Kansas State, or a similar program, to win a national championship in the expanded playoff era (38:30) and whether it is better to have Michigan or Penn State's Big Ten schedule when the conference expands in 2024 (52:25).
Cover 3 is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
