Doug and Shehan make their playoff picks; and is Cincinnati a contender?

Doug Lesmerises and Shehan Jeyarajah have been talking about the College Football Playoff since the middle of July. Now they'll tell you which four teams they think are going to make it.

On this final preseason episode of The College Football Playoff Show, Doug and Shehan each explain why they chose their four playoff teams, why they left certain teams out, and which team they think is going to win the national title. That's in the second half of the show.

In the first half, Doug and Shehan analyze the Cincinnati Bearcats and whether they should become the 10th team to officially join the group of contenders before the start of the regular season. North Carolina was rejected last week. Will this week be kinder to Cincinnati?

Thanks for listening to The College Football Playoff Show, and don't miss the shows next week, when the analysis will be based on what happens on the field this weekend with the best teams in the country.
