Summary
Andy, Ari and Scott Dochterman celebrate getting past the halfway point of the season without really thinking much about the College Football Playoff because the season has been so darn interesting. Perhaps things narrow a bit after games like Syracuse-Clemson and UCLA-Oregon this weekend, but it feels like we have a few more weeks of just enjoying a lot of teams still being in the hunt for conference titles at this point. Later, we make Scott talk about Iowa's offense even though he really doesn't want to. Why? Because we may never see anything quite like this again. Plus, Ari weaves an elite segue into why programs shouldn't sign coaches to 10-year deals.
