Bearing Down the Gridiron returns for Season 3. A lot of changes have been made for the college football including the college football playoff format. We now introduce the 12-team playoff format for 2024. Also, conference realignment is officially in place with now a Power 4 Conference instead of Power 5.

The Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) is the first conference to preview as SMU, Stanford, and CAL are the newest members in the now 17-team league. Florida State is the reigning ACC Champions and Clemson is looking to rebound from a down year.
