Me and the Big 12 guys got together to discuss the almost expansion of the CFP. This episode almost felt like an apology letter to Bob Bowlsby for all the flack he caught during the Big 12 re-alignment. Big 12 and SEC were ready to push an expansion through but ran into a brick wall of commissioners. Give it a listen as to why we think the expansion would pay dividends and what we think will ultimately become of the College Football Playoffs. Learn more about your ad choices.
