DEVELOPING: Big 10, SEC are STILL Opposed to 'Protect College Sports Act' as Tony Petitti Probes

from Locked On College Football · host Locked On Podcast Network

Reports have gone back and forth regarding the current status of the 'Protect College Sports Act' in Congress. Will there be enough changes made to get the Big 10 and SEC on board? On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin makes his 2026 record prediction for the USC Trojans. Will they win enough games to keep Lincoln Riley off the hot seat? Iowa has been one of the steadiest members of the Big 10, and last year were closer to making the 12-team Playoff than folks might realize. Will they be in the running for that mark again?
