Officials at Oregon State, Washington State, and the Pac-12 have indicated several times they are working on plans to try and rebuild the league.

If they add premier Mountain West programs and a couple of American (AAC) schools, can their conference champ lock up the G5 automatic Playoff berth?

On today’s episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin is joined by ‘Locked On Nittany Lions’ host Zach Seyko.

If James Franklin’s team beats West Virginia in Week 1, Penn State has the schedule and the team to win 10+ games (again).

Virginia Tech could have a resurgent season, and their schedule is VERY favorable to win at least 9 games this year.

‘Locked On ACC’ host Kenton Gibbs joins the show to discuss the Hokies’ record in 2024.
