Stars DON'T Matter? College football's new normal | How many teams are CAPABLE of a title run in 24?
Ari Wasserman of The Athletic joins Andy to discuss the idea that the Superteam Era might be over. Michigan's win against Alabama showed that a team that doesn't stack top-five recruiting classes can beat one that does when a national title shot is on the line.That probably wasn't true five years ago, but changes in the sport (transfer rules, NIL) have made it possible to build a deep roster without being a perennial high school recruiting juggernaut.That brings up an interesting question. With the 12-team College Football Playoff starting next season, how many teams will enter the season with a real chance at making a national title run. It's a LOT more than it would have been in 2019. Today's show is sponsored by PrizePicks, the easiest way to play daily fantasy.

This was in response to a question about whether he’d followed the news of the Michigan signal-stealing investigation during the season.Also on Thursday, Crimson Tide QB Jalen Milroe revealed that former Alabama offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien told Milroe he should switch positions. That revelation came on a day Milroe and first-year Times offensive coordinator Tommy Rees discussed the evolution of their relationship during a season that started rocky for both and has improved dramatically over the past two months.Clayton Sayfie of The Wolverine joins Andy to talk about Alabama’s cybersecurity measures. Plus, Clayton and Andy break down the critical line-of-scrimmage matchups in a game where both teams have scary defensive lines and offensive lines that have struggled at times this season.Later, Senior Bowl executive director Jim Nagy joins Andy to preview some of the best players in this final full weekend of college football.
