UCLA-as-dark-horse-playoff-contender, we hardly knew ye.

Rivalry Week is in the books, and the boys discuss that Stanford upset of the Bruins, Ole Miss's Egg Bowl upset, and plenty more, from the Civil War and Territorial Cup, to the Iron Bowl and the battle for Paul Bunyan's axe, and everything in between.

Plus, insight on the latest coaching musical chairs action, which saw Nebraska fire a coach, Buffalo hire one, and Wazzu and Auburn divest themselves of defensive coordinators.

Happy Thanksgiving! Celebrate that most gluttonous (and gracious) of holidays with The College Football Podcast crew, as they look ahead to the final week of the regular season. Be thankful for Rivalry Week!

The penultimate weekend of the regular season has come and gone, and, I mean . . . better than expected, right? Arkansas upended Ole Miss, officially eliminating from playoff contention a team that was probably already eliminated; Florida State survived another nail-biter; and Arizona took Utah to the woodshed. And that's just scratching the surface, really.

Recap the entirety of Week 13 with the boys, who also offer up some special bonus content: the hilarity of Canadian football rules!

Bad games this weekend? It won't stop the boys from plowing through a solid hour of show, previewing the top 8 or 9 match-ups of Week 13.

Add in chatter on Marcus Mariota's notorious crime spree, playoff committee rankings, and the recipe for a festive holiday cocktail, and this is some unforgettable media. Enjoy.

The Muschamp is dead, long live the Muschamp! Florida and Big Willy Style are finally parting ways; in a few weeks anyway. In the meantime, CA and Luke rattle off his likely successors and settle on their respective frontrunners. And no, it's not Mark Hudspeth.

Then the boys venture into the Week 12 recap. Arizona State-as-national-contender, we hardly knew ye. It's like two shows for the price of one. And that one is free!

How can it possibly already be Week 12? Life -- and that damn Gregorian calendar -- are just not fair.

So savor these fleeting moments, before the 2014 season is over and Iowa is crowned the first College Football Playoff champion, and preview Saturday's action with the boys. Special attention on FSU-Miami and MSU-Bama, sure, but there's plenty of forecasting to go around.

And quick breakdown on the latest playoff rankings, of course.

Like a phoenix, rising from the ashes, Jeff has returned! One of The College Football Podcast's founding fathers pinch hits for Luke this week, recapping Week 11 with Canada. And oh, what a week! Auburn, Michigan State, Kansas State, Notre Dame -- and those are just the somewhat surprising losses! Things may get wacky.

Saturday is, quite possibly, the best slate of games all season long. Arizona State-Notre Dame, Alabama-LSU, Ohio State-Michigan State, Oregon-Utah, and that's just scratching the surface. Iowa-Minnesota, for Pete's sake!

Luke and Canada preview the whole day of action, and address the playoff committee's latest rankings. UCLA, be pissed. (Although, yeah, don't lose games too, I suppose.)

One playoff candidate bites the dust, and another reinforces its case. But Ole Miss and Oregon weren't the only ones making an impression on the committee this weekend, as Florida State narrowly escaped Louisville, TCU upended West Virginia, and Florida inexplicably upset Georgia.

All those games and more in the Week 10 recap, along with a wildly accurate forecast of the committee's new top 6.

The votes are in and the committee has met, and we now have our first-ever College Football Playoff rankings. Surprises? Certainly, but, in a rather unpredictable turn of events, there's probably nothing to get too upset about. Probably.

Canada and Luke weigh in on the committee's list, contextualizing what exactly it all means and who the big winners and losers were.

Plus, a preview of Week 10's myriad appealing games!
