Summary

The Cover 3 crew breaks down the initial look at the top 25 rankings for the 2023 season. First, why Georgia is in a tier to itself for No. 1 heading into next year (1:26), the other teams that deserve top five consideration (10:40) and what to do with TCU given the turnover from this year's 12-win team (13:45). Then, assessing Tennessee's standing among the top 25 (17:50) along with other SEC foes LSU (19:45) and Texas A&M (22:00). Plus, how high should USC be ranked given both the presence of Caleb Williams but also the absence of a proven defense (25:00), what Sam Hartman brings to Notre Dame (27:42) and where Clemson fits into the national picture after a second straight year outside of the top four (32:54). Finally, discussing the calls for changes to the college football calendar, like moving National Signing Day or adjusting the transfer period windows. What coaches and commissioners are saying, and what would work best for the sport moving forward (42:45). Also, what's up with Jaden Rashada and his expected enrollment at Florida? (53:30).
