INSANE? Josh Pate Suggest Lincoln Riley is NOT 100% Locked in to USC Trojans. Alabama Upset Alert? Nov 06, 2025

Show notes

Major fanbases across the country, including LSU, Florida, Penn State, and Virginia Tech. Josh Pate made a WILD suggestion--that isn't so wild--about an option.

On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin discusses whether USC is on any upset potential this week against Northwestern. Is Alabama in any more trouble against LSU?

The G5 does not have a team ranked inside the Top 25--for now--but that could very well change this weekend when Tulane travels to Memphis. Are the Tigers in the lead to be the G5 Playoff spot?

Show notes

The College Football Playoff Committee's Rankings came out for the first time, and the Big 12 got a great draw with 3 Top 15 teams. The ACC is not in that camp.

Miami traveled to Dallas to avoid an upset bid against SMU with their Playoff hopes on thin ice. Ohio State was scared for a half against Penn State, then woke up.

On today's reaction episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin discusses another stellar showing by Texas QB Arch Manning. The Longhorns control their own path to the College Football Playoff after dispensing of Vanderbilt.
