CFB Chuck Previews The Big Ten's 2026 Season

CFB Chuck joins me to preview the Big Ten heading into 2026, breaking down the conference from top to bottom ahead of the season.We go through the Big Ten team by team, with Chuck giving his read on which programs are set up for real success this year and which ones he thinks are heading for disappointment. We get into roster construction, coaching situations, and schedule strength for every team in the conference, and Chuck doesn't hold back when he disagrees with the general consensus on a program.In Chuck's view, Oregon, Indiana, and Ohio State are still on top, but he would not be shocked if one of Michigan or USC broke out and made the College Football Playoff. Minnesota and UCLA are his surprise teams.He closes it out with his prediction for the 2026 Big Ten champion, landing on Oregon, and explains exactly why he thinks Dan Lanning's team gets it done again over the rest of the conference. If you want a full temperature check on the Big Ten before the season kicks off, this is the video to watch.College Football with Sam's goal is to give you joy and mold you into the most educated fan.
