It’s crunch time in college football now that the playoff selection committee’s rankings are out. And Week 10 turns up the heat on the chase for a spot in the top four with several marquee matchups.

Quarterback performance will undoubtedly play a critical role in determining who makes the playoff, and several teams in the hunt boast elite passers. Yogi Roth of the Pac-12 Network and Elite 11 joins hosts Zac Ellis and Lindsay Schnell to break down who has the edge under center. Zac and Lindsay also analyze who were the winners and losers of the first playoff rankings and make their picks for the biggest games of Week 10.

Here is the full list of topics Zac, Lindsay and Roth discuss:

• How will true freshman Jarrett Stidham fare as he steps in for the injured Seth Russell as Baylor’s quarterback? Can the Bears still make the playoff with Stidham? How does he fit into Baylor’s offense?

• What is UCLA true freshman quarterback Josh Rosen’s potential? How does he compare to Stidham?
