Week 11 is here and the college football playoff picture is starting to get interesting.

This week, we're breaking down the biggest matchups, questioning some of the committees rankings, looking for potential upsets, and making our picks for the weekend.

Can USC give Indiana trouble? Is Devin Dampier making a Hiesman push? Can Texas survive a trip to Baton Rouge? And is Drew Mestmemaker really making me eat my words?

Plus: The Buffalo Minute gets a little heated, Pat's Plum's Pick of the week, speed picks, and plenty of college football chaos.

College football is starting to separate the contenders from the pretenders, and this weekend gave us plenty to talk about.

Ohio State has a Jeremiah Smith problem, Georgia continues to look like the most complete team in the country, and UCLA might be even better than I originally thought. Meanwhile, Miami and Notre Dame gave us plenty to reconsider, and Michigan is somehow making an already disappointing season even more disappointing.

The Big 12 remains an absolute circus. Utah looks like the adult in the room, BYU continues to be a rollercoaster, Texas Tech can score on anybody but apparently can't stop anybody, and Houston might be the most entertaining team nobody is talking about.

Plus, Alabama has officially made things interesting. I've changed my opinion on the Tide, but don't expect me to suddenly buy into everything the playoff committee is selling.

And to wrap things up, it's time for Pat's Top Eight. Eight teams, my personal rankings, and a few opinions that I'm sure people will disagree with.

Who do I trust? Who am I buying? And who is getting a little too much respect?

The first CFP rankings are officially here and there are some questions.

Miami sits at #1, Georgia is right behind them, Utah and BYU are in the top ten, and teams like Texas and Alabama might be getting to much respect. But, how many of these teams do we actually trust.

This weekend has some massive playoff implications and were breaking down the games that could shake up the entire picture.

Can BYU survive the Holy war against Utah? Is really deserving of its ranking against Missouri? Can Houston establish itself as a legitimate Big 12 contender? And what happens when Miami faces Notre Dame in one of the biggest games of the weekend.

Plus: Bama vs LSU, Georhia vs Ole Miss, Ohio State vs Orgeon, speed picks, and Pat's Plum's Pick of the Week.

College football makes no sense right now and I'm starting to think the AP poll is just assigning teams numbers and hoping nobody asks questions.

Miami is sitting at the top of the rankings, but the defense keeps giving up points, Georgia looks like team to beat, Ohio State has some serious problems to figure out, Indiana keeps winning games without exactly inspiring championship confidence.

Plus: is USC deserving more respect? Is Dylan Raiola a better closer than starter? Is LaNorriss Sellers making a late Hiesman push? And what the hell is going on in the Big 12?

We've got Georgia vs Miami hypotheticals, the Indiana-M- team conspiracy, and plenty of questionable confidnce.

Quarterbacks are going down left and right in college football, and for some teams, the timing couldn't be worse.

Mississippi State has to figure out life without Kamario Taylor. Oregon is suddenly facing some serious questions about its quarterback room and the direction of the offense. UCLA might be better equipped than anyone to survive losing its starter, while Ohio State has a quarterback decision that could shape the rest of the season.

Four teams, four very different situations, and one very big question: which programs are actually built to survive when their starting quarterback goes down?

Plus: speed picks, Pat's Plum's Pick of the Week, and make some time for the only NFL team in New York: the Buffalo Bills. It's the Buffalo Minute...which may or may not last a full minute.

Michigan just lost to Indiana and now I'm trying to figure out what that means for Ohio State.

Can Michigan be a disappointing team for most of the season and STILL have what it takes to ruin the Buckeyes' year? Rivalry games don't always follow the rules and that's exactly what makes this interesting.

Plus: Oregon's returning talent problem, whether Texas needs adversity to play its best football, Mississippi State's dependence on Kamario Taylor, and the teams that could spend the rest of the season playing spoiler.

After a chaotic weekend last week, who knows what's going to happen??!!

We don't but we sure will pretend like we do.

In college football: Does the uncertain quarterback play spell upset for the Oregon Ducks? Will Houston vs Utah be a key game in the outcome of the Big12 (and the playoff picture)? And will Indiana give Michigan the notes they need to ruin Ohio States playoff hopes a few weeks from now?

on the NFL side of things we are trying not to overreact to the Titans big win on the road and we just aren't buying the whole 'JJ McCarthy" going on out in New York. Is he the real deal or just a one quarter wonder?

Then we unvail the somewhat ridiculous Florida team parlay that may or may not be strongly influenced by a massive video game release.

Plus: Speed Picks, superstition talks, and Pat's Plum's Pick of the Week (6-2 btw).

Football is a beautiful, unpredictable mess.

This week on Pat on the Back, I'm looking at a weekend that reminded us why its important to enjoy the times you get it right, own it when you're wrong, and accept that football rarely goes according to plan.

Then, I'm joined by Adam Giardino, UConn football broadcaster, for a conversation about life in sports broadcasting, what you learn from being around a team that fans might miss, and some important debates facing society today.

From his Broadcasting career and his opinion on two point conversions to Adams favorite ceareal and the best Reeses Cup shape, we get into everything you didn't know you wanted to grown men to talk about.

Adam also discusses his involvement in the Black Play-By-Play Foundation and its working supporting Black play-by-play broadcasters.
