College Football Summary

The College Football Playoff has sparked discussions about its current format following lopsided defeats for Tulane and James Madison in the first round, raising questions about whether the 12-team bracket includes too many uncompetitive matchups.

Oregon's coach Dan Lanning expressed that the playoff system is flawed, suggesting that Oregon should be playing at Texas Tech in the quarterfinals instead. Meanwhile, Ohio State's defensive coordinator Matt Patricia addressed the media ahead of their playoff game against Miami, emphasizing the importance of preparation as the team aims to improve their postseason record against the Hurricanes.

In other news, UNLV and Ohio are set to compete in the Frisco Bowl, with both teams expecting nearly full participation despite common trends of player opt-outs during bowl season.
