On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT breaks down why college football feels completely different in the NIL and transfer portal era, and how the sport’s traditions and rivalries are being reshaped. JT also previews the Miami Hurricanes entering the 2026 season with Darian Mensahat quarterback, plus what to expect from LSU with Lane Kiffin and the ripple effects across the SEC. The episode dives into the SEC’s move to a nine-game conference schedule and why it could create a major College Football Playoff debate around strength of schedule vs record. JT wraps by reacting to Josh Pate’s way-too-early Top 25, highlighting the biggest risers, overrated teams, and the early CFP picture without giving away the final verdict.
