UCF Knights Knights

Trying to make sense of the playoff picture conference by conference with less than a week to go.

We rank the top defenses each week based on how many times an opponent's drive ends without points.

Scott Van Pelt and Stanford Steve recap all of the action from Week 14 of the college football season. The guys start with the big one in Berkeley as Cal ruined SMU’s CFP chances. Now, DUKE gets in the ACCCG?! The SEC got shaken up a bit as well, as Texas upset Texas A&M, and Alabama won a thriller on the Plains to set up another Alabama-Georgia SECCG. The Big 12 is straight forward, and all fringe CFP hopefuls will be pulling for the Red Raiders. Furthermore, what to make of Texas, Notre Dame, Miami & Vanderbilt’s CFP candidacies. The guys also frequently weigh in on the Lane Kiffin drama as his move to LSU seems imminent. Finally, a Thanksgiving recap, some NFL thoughts, special shoutouts and a special message from the heart. | SVPod Approximate Timecodes: (0:00) Intro (0:52) Duke somehow punches ticket to ACCCG (3:14) Should Lane Kiffin be allowed to coach Ole Miss?
