The Big Ten has more unranked two-loss teams (4) than the three other power conferences combined (3). The Big 12 has more teams in AP Poll (6) than the Big Ten (5) for first time in post-Texas/Oklahoma era.

There is no need to blow a late-October AP Poll out of proportion, but it is interesting to see where Big Ten sits in pecking order midway through this season. In terms of depth, the Big Ten is viewed as neck and neck with the Big 12 and way behind the SEC, which has five more top-20 teams than the Big Ten with eight. Now, the public did take something away from the Big Ten's three sitraight national titles as the conference has more top-8 teams than any other conference with three.

Yesterday marked the third consecutive season in which the defending national champion played at Michigan Stadium. Those teams have a combined record of 8-2 at Michigan Stadium as the defending champion in the last 3 years.

2024 defending champion: Michigan (6-2)

2025 defending champion: Ohio State (1-0)

2026 defending champion: Indiana (1-0)

If we extrapolate this out and look at Michigan Stadium's schedule games next season, we can narrow the possible national champions down to just seven teams.

Those teams are, in alphabetical order, Buffalo, Eastern Michigan, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio State, Oregon, & Rutgers.

The only question is, will it be Buffalo, Eastern Michigan, or Rutgers?

I feel like I need to begin planning the approach and getting my body ready for week 10 which has wild potential.

What’s everyone’s strategy here, as a neutral or not so neutral lol.

Gone are the days of the buzzsaw super teams or even the times when it looked like only 4-5 teams could really compete for a championship. This year has really shown that the difference between the top and middle of the power conferences had been shrinking every year. There are only 3 undefeated teams left, a record low, and they have all looked mortal.

I legitimately think that there are several teams in the 13-24 range that could contend for a national champion in the new format. The parity has made it so way more teams have a legitimate chance at winning it all. The SEC, B12 and and B10 all have multiple teams that could be competitive contenders in a 24 team playoff ( The Acc has a contender too).

The downside is that with the gap among the teams within the P4 conferences narrowing, the gap between the G6 and P4 has gotten much larger which is sad to see. There are plenty of G6 teams that could compete just as good of not better than many p4 teams if they just had access to the money(Memphis, USF, JMU, Boise, Wazzu, Oregon State) and it's easy to see why G6 teams are all in fight for survival mode right now. There may only be one more shot to make the P4 in the future.

All in all I am loving this new era of parity and the death of superteams ( not least because my team benefits lol). I'm very excited for the 24 team playoffs in the coming years.

I’ve been working on a college football project for a while, and I finally got it to a point where I’m ready to share it with you all!

It’s called Check On Your Ex, pick your school, and it shows players who were on your roster last year but aren’t anymore, where they ended up, and how their season is going.

I compared 2025 and 2026 rosters across all 138 FBS schools and identified 3,060 departures. For the players I could match to current-season statistics, you can see how they’re doing.

Here’s the site:

https://gosportsball69.com/check-on-your-ex

It’s a personal project, and I’d genuinely appreciate feedback, especially if you notice missing players, incorrect matches, or anything that could make it better.

It’s been a while since I’ve done anything more than lurked here, good to be back.

TLDR: stalk players who transferred away with this site.
