Chris went down to EA Sports to test out College Football 26, and he's got a LOT to talk about. He also went to Big 12 meetings, where a lot of College Football Playoff drama is spilling out into the public. What do the Big Ten and SEC really want from the next CFP format, and can anybody stop them? And the guys shout out the College Football Hall of Fame for changing the rules to let Mike Leach in.
