The Pac-12 announced it will add Fresno State, Colorado State, Boise State and SDSU in 2026. David Ubben, Chris Vannini, and Damien Harris react to the realignment news. They also discuss other programs (like Tulane and UNLV) that the conference could target. Civil War and the Apple Cup look a bit different this year, but will the underdogs test the favorites? Kansas State-Arizona and UCF-TCU are intriguing Big 12 matchups, and Missouri-Boston College, Oklahoma-Tulane and Alabama-Wisconsin, and LSU-South Carolina are big tests for ranked SEC teams. Plus, Trust Fall Picks, Locks of the Week, Wheel of Takes (where we the guys have to defend a random take), and trivia rounds out the show!
