Realignment has created mega conferences that create issues in college football, including unbalanced league scheduling.
What’s the right fix on the conference front?
On today’s episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin is joined by Josh Pate of CBS Sports and ‘Josh Pate’s College Football Show’.
He shares his thoughts on scheduling in college football and how Indiana’s Curt Cignetti addressed the issue incorrectly. (13:02)
The Playoff might stay at 12 teams—and it should.
If it were to expand to 16 teams, should the SEC and Big 10 both get more automatic bids than the Big 12 and ACC? (25:35)
