Two weeks ago, ESPN analyst Desmond Howard gave his College Football Playoff prediction, which caught everyone’s eyes for being very different and out of left field. He didn’t have the top three ranked teams in the country, Alabama, Ohio State and Georgia, in the field.
But, the season hadn’t started yet, so maybe Howard was on to something that everyone else hadn’t hadn’t seen yet.
Or maybe it all blew up in his face by week two, which is exactly what happened.
Three of Howard’s four playoff teams lost on Saturday, most likely ending any chance he had of correctly predicting the playoff.
