On today's college football inquirer, the ACC and the Big 12 come out publicly in favor of a 2014

playoff. We hear the ACC's explanation for why, plus an idea that would affect this year's

college football playoff. Also, we got kickoff times. What's it going to look like week one,

two, and three. And also, you can start planning your Thanksgiving weekend right now. Also, Florida State and Georgia just canceled a home and home series. Why?

Cash money. They're going to play each other, but it won't be in Athens or Tallahassee,

and they're going to make a lot of money off of it. We'll talk about it all on today's

College Football Enquirer.

This is College Football inquire with Stephen Godfrey. I am Andy Staples. Ross Delinger is traveling today. Godfrey. Sir. Somebody finally said it out loud. There wasn't the Big Ten. Oh, we're doing this, right? This is going to happen now. We're doing this doing this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. I don't know if it's going to happen yet. Okay.

hear them handle their carefully curated

24 they wanted 16 so no i'm excited for whatever logic they're going to trot out i also uh you know

If I know, I know, I'll get you there, buddy. I'll get you there. They're trying to beat me down, but I feel like they're not succeeding. And I still, Greg Sankey, hold the line, hold the wall. But here's what they said.

So Jim Phillips,

in New, I still, Greg Sankey, hold the line, hold the wall. But here's what they said. So Jim Phillips,
