Summary

Is Clemson the College Football champion front-runner? The Tigers rank #1 in ESPN's Bill Connelly's returning production, but the metric is far more nuanced than a ranking. David, Chris, and Bill discuss Dabo's squad, Alabama, Ohio State, Oregon, Colorado, Arizona State, and others' returning production, and what it means for their title hopes. Before Bill joins the show, Chris recaps the CFP meeting, and he and David chat Jim Nagy to Oklahoma. Plus, Kirby Smart takes a shot at Johnny Manziel.
