BIG 10 SQUAD: College Football Playoff Expansion is INEVITABLE | What this means for the sport May 14, 2026

Show notes

Big Ten playoff chaos heats up as conference experts debate an ever-expanding College Football Playoff. Could a 24-team—or even 128-team—bracket reshape the landscape for programs like Ohio State, Michigan, and Northwestern?

Who benefits—and who’s left scrambling—if postseason access grows at an unprecedented rate? The Big 10 Squad talks about Northwestern’s daunting 2026 schedule, win total predictions, Chip Kelly’s offensive impact, and Big Ten roadblocks that could make or break a season. Rapid-fire banter, sharp predictions, and playful host dynamics make this a must-listen for college football fans eyeing the future of the Big Ten.
