A rumor flew around online recently that the Big 12 is lining up to add Oregon State and Washington State as the 17th and 18th members of the league. Nobody should actually expect that move to be announced--because it wouldn't make sense right now.

On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin is joined by 'Locked On Utes' host JT Wistrcill. They go through and predict every regular season game outcome for the Utes, which SHOULD result in an appearance in the Big 12 Championship Game.

Louisville made the ACC Championship Game a year ago in HC Jeff Brohm's first season at the helm. Spencer predicts game-by-game what their record could be, and lays out why they're such a high floor program this year.

On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin talks about Alabama's game against Missouri, their first meeting since 2020. Is there any real upset potential when the Tigers roll into Tuscaloosa?

Liberty is the most likely team (per FanDuel) to go undefeated this year. Last year they did with a similarly weak schedule (not their fault) and lost 45-6 against Oregon in the Fiesta Bowl. Should a 13-0 Liberty team be a Playoff lock in 2024?

The Big 10's addition of 4 former Pac-12 schools and the SEC's addition of Texas/Oklahoma make them the true "power 2" leagues in college football. The moves and their mentality reflect that both are, indeed, too big to ever go away.
