Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde, & SI’s Ross Dellenger are back with another packed episode of bears, money & playoff logistics.

The College Football Playoff committee is meeting again this week to determine when the expanded playoff will take place, leading to a discussion on the importance of becoming a top 2 seed and the other challenges the committee may face logistically. We are starting to get a better look at this year’s College Football Playoff picture, so the guys speculate on which teams that are currently on the outside looking in have a shot at breaking into the top 4.

Later, Pat gives a breakdown from what he observed at UCLA’s practice & the guys talk about the Utah player who was offered one million dollars to transfer to another school from a NIL collective. Finally, Pat, Ross & Dan close out the episode with a brand new People’s Court out of Mississippi, as well as a new bear story.
