College Football Playoff format debate heats up as the Big Ten and SEC clash with Big 12 and ACC. We break down the proposed models and their potential impact on the future of college football.

Our analysis dives into the 4-4-2-2-3-1 model favored by the Big Ten and SEC, guaranteeing four spots each in a 16-team playoff. We explore Joel Klatt's take on why the Big 12 might be "bananas" for pushing the alternative 5+11 format. Paul Finebaum thinks the Big XII should quiet down and just be happy with anything.  We explain why.

Plus, get the latest Big Ten recruiting updates, including Illinois quarterback Luke Altmyer's decision to stay put despite Tennessee's interest.

We also dissect Sports Illustrated's power rankings of Big Ten football coaches. From Ryan Day's reign at the top to surprising shifts in the rankings, we offer our insights on each coach's position. Hear our thoughts on Curt Cignetti's impressive jump and why we're puzzled by David Braun's low ranking despite being a former Big Ten Coach of the Year.

Don't miss our in-depth analysis of these crucial Big Ten football developments and their potential to reshape the conference landscape.
