How much higher is Oregon’s ceiling once Kayvon Thibodeaux returns? The College Football Playoff Show

Catch the College Football Playoff Show with Doug Lesmerises and Shehan Jeyarajah every week on your favorite podcast platform.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL, USA -- Are Michigan, Ole Miss and Florida knocking on the door of the college football playoff conversation? Are Notre Dame, Clemson and Ohio State -- all looking vulnerable in different ways -- on their way out of the conversation?

How good is Oregon now (seemingly the next-best team behind the Alabama-Georgia duo) compared to what the Ducks could be when Kayvon Thibodeaux gets back? Is Penn State a top-four team? Is Georgia or Alabama making the better case for No. 1? How much does that Ole Miss game for Alabama next week look like a potential stumbling block? Why doesn’t Oklahoma’s offense stay on track more often? Is Texas A&M still a contender as its backup quarterback tries to round into form?

On this episode of The College Football Playoff Show, Doug Lesmerises and Shehan Jeyarajah are back to welcome teams to the discussion, kick teams out of the discussion, and rank all the contenders.
