Is Kentucky Being Overlooked? Brad Crawford Makes the Playoff Case

Are college football teams ranked by results—or reputation? CBS Sports and 247Sports analyst Brad Crawford joins Will Dawson to discuss ranking bias, Kentucky’s playoff case, and a college football landscape where traditional powers can’t take anything for granted.

He discusses fatherhood, gratitude, and the challenge of keeping God first while covering the sport he loves.
