CFP Rankings, Parity in Football and Bad Officiating
Welcome to College Football Rankings Week One guys! This week on the Girls on the Sideline pod, the girls are discussing their thoughts on the first week college football rankings, the crazy parity they see happening in both college and professional football, as well as the horrible officiating that has been plaguing these leagues for quite some time.
