We open with optimistic Scoop this week as we open Episode 419, and get right down to Greentree to start breaking down the crux of the national college football conversation... Miami vs Notre Dame in the Playoff rankings. And it becomes more obvious each week that the committee is completely changing the rules and making up new metrics to fit whatever narrative they choose. Everyone also has strong feelings about committee chair Hunter Yurachek as he tries to explain this jackassery every week on national television.

You can always gauge how far things go off the rail by whether they land on President Trump's desk, and sure enough Secretary of State Marco Rubio brought up Miami's potential to get screwed in a cabinet meeting this week! Even Duke head coach Manny Diaz agrees that Miami should be in the Playoffs even with all his history with the Hurricanes. And Texas coach Steve Sarkisian took a shot at Miami while lobbying for the Longhorns, but in reality he just needed to beat Florida and just mind his own business. Plus Roman wants to know where everyone puts their percentage of Miami making it into the Playoffs.

Signing Day was another HUGE win for the Canes, with the top class in the ACC for the fourth straight season, with some certified studs to keep Miami in contention for years to come. Plus even more audio from Josh Pate, breaking down why the Miami vs Notre Dame argument holds NO water, and even Colin Cowherd backing the U after tearing us down only two weeks ago. And we briefly touch on the Lane Kiffin drama at Ole Miss and how much of a weasel he was on his way out. James Franklin's drama with Penn State also takes the stage as we have some fun with the wild coaching hires this past week. And we close it out with Championship Weekend picks for all the big games!
