Fox put together a panel of its college football analysts Sunday to stage a mock rankings for the College Football Playoff. Sort of mimicked the selection committee’s weekly process. The panel was made of up Rob Stone, Dave Wannstedt, Petros Papadakis, Matt Leinart, Danny Kanell, Robert Smith and Bruce Feldman.
And on the show that aired Sunday afternoon, the seven analysts made their national championship predictions.
Two picked Auburn. Five picked Oklahoma.
No one picked Alabama. No one picked the ACC champion, be it Miami or Clemson. And a big majority favored the Sooners.
It won’t be easy for OU – or anyone else.
