Alabama, Ohio State, Georgia Left Out of Desmond Howard’s Playoff Prediction

It’s Week Zero in college football, which means College Gameday premiered on ESPN for its inaugural show of the new season.

At the end of the program on Saturday, the Gameday crew made their annual College Football Playoff predictions. As expected, there were several that included Alabama, Ohio State and Georgia, the three favorites to win the 2022 National Championship.

But those picks were not held by analyst Desmond Howard, who released a wild final four.

Howard included Texas A&M (his SEC winner), Pittsburgh (his ACC winner), Baylor (his Big 12 winner) and Michigan (his Big 10 winner) in his College Football Playoff.
