College football Week 0 kicks off and we're also talking College Football Playoff this week

It's the dawn of a college football season unlike any other. There is massive change to the landscape with conference realignment, sending one of the historic leagues into dormancy. The College Football Playoff is tripling in size, opening the door for some potentially wild final weeks and some spirited debate about who should be among the 12 teams that play for the national title.
Week 0 starts Saturday with one ranked team in action. No. 10 Florida State faces ACC rival Georgia Tech in Ireland. How will the Seminoles and new quarterback DJ Uiagalelei start after last year's disappointing snub from the playoff committee?
There are other questions that loom ahead of the season. Are Texas and Oklahoma ready to make the transition to the SEC? What do we make of Oregon being ranked at No. 3 in the US LBM Coaches Poll and Michigan starting at No. 8? Is Notre Dame someone to watch this year?
How will it all shake out? Dan Wolken and Paul Myerberg discuss these topics and more in this week's version of the College Football Fix.
