In a mock bracket on Saturday morning’s show, “GameDay” predicted that Alabama would be the lone team to be selected into the four team playoff. Herbstreit, however, anticipated chaos in the Playoff’s inaugural year by two teams from college football’s best division getting in.
However, Herbsreit’s ESPN colleague and notable ACC guy Danny Kanell, had differing thoughts.
This whole “two SEC teams in playoff” talk is a joke. Its more likely they get zero teams than two #realtalk
