Wayne Cook was asked at the start of the show on a scale of 1-10 how fired up he was about the latest playoff rankings and he said he was cool with it.

Disclaimer: the CFP rankings reaction comes at the 55-minute mark. The first hour of the show is Wayne and Hartzell preheating the oven on takes from the weekend, of which Wayno has plenty. Then Phil Steele stops by for his weekly hit running through every game in the top 25 for Saturday. Then come the takes. What are we outraged by? Who has offended us the most?
