NEW: ESPN analysts called the utility of the CFP's weekly Tuesday rankings show into question. But in order to nix the reveals, ESPN's own contract would have to be redone. The deal btwn ESPN and CFP mandates 5 rankings shows before full bracket reveal. https://t.co/VXnC70leYY

For his next magic trick, Jason will blame Israel for the fact that Tulane (a school with a large Jewish population) got a CFP bid.
