Summary
Chris Vannini is an absolute madman. He ranked ALL 134 FBS college football teams for his annual '134 Rankings'. He and David Ubben examine the team tiers and disucss some of the major differences between the 134 Rankings and AP Poll. BUT, before then, Until Saturday is excited to welcome former Alabama running back and two-time national champion Damien Harris as the show's co-host! The trio play 'The Newly Recruit Game' to learn more about Damien. Before wrapping up, we open the mailbag and voicemail box and hit CRUNCH TIME.
