Big Ten & SEC vs. the Senate: Is a super league imminent?

from College Football Enquirer · host steven godfrey, ross dellenger, andy staples

Are the Big Ten and SEC under attack? That is what it looked like on Wednesday at the Senate hearing for the Protect College Sports Act. One thing that was made very clear was that the parts of the bill that are aimed directly at the SEC and the Big Ten are not going to be changed. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss the hearing and what the fallout may be. Could this be another nudge for the Big Ten and SEC to separate from the NCAA? Then, the guys discuss another prominent figure who was at Wednesday's hearing. Notre Dame Athletic Director Pete Bevacqua. Bevacqua openly spoke about the idea of a super league and what that would actually look like. He discussed how the pooling of rights would really only involve the top brand-name programs getting together and the schedules would be stacked with huge matchups. Andy and Ross discuss the enticing aspect of this and what would happen in the world of this specific type of super league. Later, the guys shift to the feud between Texas and Texas Tech. Recently, Texas Head Coach Steve Sarkisian called out Texas Tech's weak schedule. Tech responded by offering to buy out both teams' Week 1 opponents so they could play each other. Texas did not accept this offer. As a response, Texas Tech Head Coach Joey McGuire called Texas scared and said in 2027 and 2028 they will be scheduling a big non-conference opponent. Andy and Ross discuss all of the drama going on in the state of Texas.
