Two Guys: Previewing Iowa vs. Northwestern & Iowa State vs. Baylor, Reaction to CFP rankings

Iowa's College Football Playoff hopes are alive, but the path to the 12-team field is more complicated than simply winning out. Chris Williams and Chris Hassel break down the first CFP rankings, Kirk Ferentz's comments about ESPN, and what the Hawkeyes need to do to make a late-season climb. The guys dig into Iowa's matchup with Northwestern, including the Wildcats' long stretch without a bye, Iowa's injury report, and the importance of taking care of business down the stretch. Can the Hawkeyes make enough of an impression to move up the rankings? Then it's on to Iowa State's trip to Baylor. Can the Cyclones carry the offensive momentum from their wild win over Oklahoma State into another road game? The guys discuss Jaylen Raynor's performance, the matchup with Baylor's defense, the mental edge Iowa State might have, and their predictions for the game. Plus, a look at college football TV ratings, the start of college basketball, best games of Week 10, their LOCKS, and more.
