Welcome to the Audible presented by Trader Joe's.

0:16.1

I'm Stuart Bandell, joined as always by Bruce Feldman.

0:19.3

We have some new college football playoff rankings.

0:22.1

We have a huge slate of rivalry games, Thanksgiving weekend games this weekend.

0:26.6

And we also, at long last, have our first power for coaching change. Where should we start, Bruce?

0:33.1

Let's hold off on the Mac Brown, North Carolina news for a little bit. The rankings just came out.

0:39.1

I think one of the questions was going to be how far would Indiana fall?

1:30.7

And only then do you get to the block of Alabama, Ole Miss, South Carolina, all 8 and 3.
