Summary
Counting down and debating the top 25 on the 2020 CBS Sports coach rankings. Barton Simmons, Tom Fornelli and Chip Patterson compare their ballots to the final list, with a particular focus on Mario Cristobal at Oregon (4:45), how to balance the past with the present when ranking Mack Brown (14:30) and the argument for why Gus Malzahn should be ahead of Jim Harbaugh (21:30). Plus, the sliding scale of expectations for Utah (32:15), Jimbo Fisher and the end of his Florida State tenure (43:30), Ed Orgeron's impressive jump in the rankings (1:00:30) and much, much more.
