With six players projected in the first-round of CBSSports.com's latest NFL Draft mock, it looks like the Crimson Tide could break LSU's record for most selections in the first round.

A wild weekend of the NCAA Tournament was heavy on upsets. The current college football structure is less allowing of Cinderella-type runs, but there are a few schools — of the Power 5 and Group of 5 variety — that might fit the slipper this fall.

It seems the days of two-sport stars in college basketball and football are behind us (thanks, specialization). The embodiment of that might be Jalen Suggs, who could have turned into a 4-star QB prospect but had such an irresistible future as a basketball standout that he chose a college that doesn't even have a football program! With the NCAA Tournament underway, Allen Trieu joins the show to re...

247Sports director of recruiting Steve Wiltfong joins the show to discuss Notre Dame’s recent hot streak on the recruiting trail, including the big commitment from four-star linebacker Joshua Burnham, and identifies some programs on the cusp of taking the next step in the national landscape. Wiltfong also shares the latest buzz on a few notable prospects that competed at a loaded Under Armour Camp...

Filling in for Trey Scott, Chris Hummer is joined by CBS Sports National College football writer Dennis Dodd to discuss the Power Five conferences and their rules regarding intra-conference transfers. With potential rule changes around the corner, will the other four conferences follow the lead of the ACC and adjust their guidelines ahead of time? Chris and Dennis go through the rules and talk abo...

What went wrong for LSU last fall? Well, what didn't? As Ed Orgeron's Tigers move forward with spring optimism aplenty, there's no denying the sentiment in Baton Rouge: Coach O's honeymoon period is over, and these new changes had better work. Shea Dixon joins the College Football Daily to take stock of the Tigers. Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Shea Dixon Follow or Subscribe to The College Football...

Given his skills, his last name and the schools involved, it really isn't hyperbole to wonder if Arch Manning will be the most famous or talked-about recruit ... ever. So of course we need to catch up with Steve Wiltfong after his trip to the historic Isidore Newman School.

What can you really say about a team that went 3-1 over an entire season? When it comes to gauging the Washinton Huskies, perhaps it's better to start at their most well-known asset, freshman QB Sam Huard. Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Brandon Huffman Follow or Subscribe to The College Football Daily on  Spotify ,  Apple Podcasts ,  Google Podcasts ,  Stitcher , or wherever you get your podcasts. Fi...

247Sports recruiting analyst Andrew Ivins joins the show to discuss some of the top performers from the Under Armour All-America Camp Series stop in Miami, a five-star running back scheduled to announce a commitment this coming weekend and why programs such as Clemson, Oklahoma, Ohio State, Miami, Florida, Florida State, Georgia and Texas A&M are making noise in the Sunshine State early in the...

On the heels of Kansas and Les Miles separating, today's journey through the P5 takes us to Miles' first head coaching spot: Stillwater, Oklahoma, where Mike Gundy must again work some magic to get the Cowboys back to contention. https://nissanbracketengineer.splashthat.com/ Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Cody Nagel Follow or Subscribe to The College Football Daily on  Spotify ,  Apple Podcasts ,  Go...

It's very possible Les Miles has coached his last college football game. Trey and 247Sports' Kansas reporter Scott Chasen discuss last week's bombshell investigations, whether KU AD Jeff Long should also be in the crosshairs (did he really not know any of this?) and what might happen next for a national champion coach and a Power 5 program already struggling mightily. Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: S...

We were all-in on Louisville after the 2019 season in which the Cardinals and new coach Scott Satterfield blew past expectations. But then 2020 saw Louisville fall well short of expectations and then endure Satterfield flirting with South Carolina, a saga which angered the fan base and left the coach with his tail between his legs. With plenty about the Cardinals to chew on, Trey calls up Jody Dem...

247Sports National Recruiting Analyst Bud Elliott joins Andrew Ivins to discuss 2022 recruiting in the state of Florida. They break down the strengths and weaknesses of the cycle in the Sunshine State, how Florida State, Miami, Florida, and UCF are performing on the trail, and whether the in-state schools will be able to keep the top kids home. Host: Andrew Ivins Guests: Bud Elliott Follow or Subs...

Herm Edwards is building a powerhouse in the desert. The Arizona State Sun Devils have the QB, have the coaching and have the talent to compete for a Pac-12 divisional title and, perhaps, even win the whole thing. The question is consistency. Arizona State's second-year OC Zak Hill joins the show. Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Arizona State OC Zak Hill Follow or Subscribe to The College Football Dai...

There's no point in throwing darts at Arik Gilbert's future destination. Instead, Trey and Rusty Mansell — who's known Gilbert since the player was in the eighth grade — discuss what might be happening with the former 5-star and why it was such a trying year for every college football player. Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Rusty Mansell Follow or Subscribe to The College Football Daily on  Spotify , ...

We're used to Alabama facing Clemson on the field — but not so much on the recruiting trail, strangely enough. That changed Friday when 5-star QB Ty Simpson picked Alabama. Analyst Hank South joins the show to break down the decision and why Bill O'Brien was so key here; Trey runs through a huge weekend of news, including Arik Gilbert backing off his Florida pledge. Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Han...

Michigan isn't ready to quit Jim Harbaugh just yet, but the coach had to make some concessions that will make things weird moving forward, namely an assistant coach salary pool that's less than last year's. But if the staff can gel and get the most out of some promising young talent — namely, 5-star QB J.J. McCarthy — then can this FINALLY be the year? Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Steve Lorenz Foll...

The top-ranked signee in Tennessee's class wanted out. For a moment, the Vols werent' too inclined to let allow an unconditional release. But in the end, UT did the right thing and 4-star Dylan Brooks quickly wound up at Auburn, where he continues Bryan Harsin's encouraging trend of solid after-hours additions. Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Keith Niebuhr Follow or Subscribe to The College Football D...

We're a sucker for the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, who are turning things around on the field and on the recruiting trail. So much so, it's hard to believe getting back together with coach Greg Schiano was a tough, painful decision for AD Pat Hobbs. Host:  Trey Scott    Guest: Brian Dohn Follow or Subscribe to The College Football Daily on  Spotify ,  Apple Podcasts ,  Google Podcasts ,  Stitcher , o...
