(1:07:33-1:10:41) Conclusion

Cole Cubelic (ESPN, McElroy and Cubelic, Cube Show) joins Andy to talk about a very interesting nugget that UAB coach Trent Dilfer dropped on Cole's radio show. Dilfer thinks the schism between the Big Ten/SEC and the rest of the FBS is coming soon, perhaps within the next 18 months.

That a sitting FBS coach would say this is interesting enough, but Dilfer spent enough time working at ESPN to know a lot of the people who move the levers that make these things happen. Plus, everything else has happened faster than expected, so perhaps things could move this fast.

Andy and Cole discuss what such a league might look like. Would it be 50 or 60 teams or something smaller? Who could be included? What would happen to the rest of the FBS?

With court cases still looming, schools exploring the idea of partnering with private equity firms and further realignment still on the horizon, could everything look different by 2026?

Plus, Andy discusses Iowa star Caitlin Clark breaking the NCAA's all-time scoring record. Nike was ready with a congratulatory ad, and the Hawkeyes avenged an earlier loss to No. 2 Ohio State.

Next, On3's James Fletcher III joins Andy to talk college basketball. Tennessee's win at Alabama on Saturday might be enough to move the Volunteers onto the NCAA Tournament selection committee's No. 1 seed line. Gonzaga won a critical game at St. Mary's.

Also, can Ohio State interim coach Jake Diebler possibly get the Buckeyes into the NCAA Tournament.

Plus, which low-major and mid-major conference tournament No. 1 seeds should be on upset watch this week?
