(Links in notes) Ari and David answer your voicemails and questions on the Sunday Sound-Off! The duo discuss Saturday's most disappointing teams (3:00) before Ari is forced to answer if he's too critical of Ohio State (12:30). Later, the guys are asked if this will be a Pac-12-less playoff (26:30). Also, will Pac-12 teams be forced to change styles in the Big Ten (34:00); how are wins over legacy teams valued during their down years (42:45); and is realignment the real reason we don't like the expanded playoff (49:00)? Finally, enjoy a portion of Ari's playoff therapy session with Yahoo Sports' Dan Wetzel (53:00).
