Summary
The Cover 3 crew drafts non-conference series we want to see play out on the field. First, with the Final Four set, a discussion on the role of Cinderella in the NCAA Tournament and what we might expect to see with an expanded bracket in the College Football Playoff (2:00). Then, it’s on to the Dream Non-Con Matchup Draft, starting with a very obvious No. 1 overall selection involving the recent moves on the coaching carousel (23:00). After that the picks vary from renewing historic rivalries, aligning iconic brands that don’t play often and much more. Nebraska, Tennessee, Florida, Michigan, Miami, Notre Dame and Texas all make multiple appearances in the four-round draft, which concludes with a pick that brings a recent recruiting rivalry beef to the field to settle the matter.
Cover 3 is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
