How would an SEC-only playoff impact the rest of college football? (05/25)

The Cover 3 crew talks Arch Manning and the SEC’s future with Texas and Oklahoma. First, with the news that blue chip quarterback Eli Holstein has committed to Alabama, does that mean that the Crimson Tide are out of the running for Arch Manning (1:15)? That, plus some suggestions regarding where Manning might be looking as the quarterback dominos continue to fall on the recruiting trail. Then it’s on to the future of the SEC, which takes center stage during the league’s spring meetings at the end of the month (17:00). What will the league schedule look like with Texas and Oklahoma in the conference, and what is the potential of the conference holding an SEC-only playoff (33:19)?
