Welcome to Navy Sports Central - The Official Podcast of the Navy Sports Nation!

Today, we will take a look at the college transfer portal and how it has basically become college football's version of the free agent market.  

We will also critique  the controversial final rankings of the College Football Playoff Selection Committee post-Championship Week.  We compare Florida State's situation with Ohio State's 2014 scenario and examine if the committee's revenue-driven approach overlooked the resulted in them ignoring all of the Seminoles' on field accomplishments. 

Finally, we'll recognize the two standout athletes from our fall Mid Watch segment.  Freshman Kiefer Black, who led Navy Water Polo team to the Mid-Atlantic Water Polo Conference Championship game, and senior Averi Miller, whose clutch play sealed an incredible comeback  against Army to take the Star on Veterans Day.
