What if there's an alternate reality in which the 2018 college football season—with just a couple of minor tweaks—was entirely different?
In a world in which Vanderbilt upsets Notre Dame, Georgia's fake punt works, Kelly Bryant never transfers and a major league baseball team tells Kyler Murray he's not allowed to play football, you're looking at one heck of a change from the actual College Football Playoff picture.
These aren't outrageous what-if scenarios. We're talking about things like a fluke injury that instead doesn't happen, a key pass attempt that actually finds it mark and a Miami team that sticks with one darn quarterback instead of trying to swap starters every week.
