Playoff expansion: Inside the discussions behind the scenes, next steps and more (07/07)

The Cover 3 crew is joined by Dennis Dodd for an insider’s take on playoff expansion. First, the factors that will determine whether the new playoff format will be in place by 2023 (4:30), how the Rose Bowl plays a role in the decisions about the quarterfinals (15:00) and whether Notre Dame was a winner or loser in the proposed format with no shot at a top-four seed (22:15). Then, how schools are reacting to the new NIL era (41:00) and why the most interesting hot seat conversation heading into 2021 surrounds Nebraska coach Scott Frost (53:30).
