How many programs will win a national title in the next 10 years, and which teams will pull it off?

The NBA just crowned its seventh different champion in seven years. Is college football headed for a similar level of competitiveness, or will a few teams still dominate the landscape. In the 11 seasons of the College Football Playoff, there have been six different champions (Ohio State, Alabama, Clemson, LSU, Georgia, Michigan).

Is it possible the curve is flattening enough to have eight or nine different champs in 10 years?

(59:13-1:05:00) Will Kentucky embrace Motivated Mark Stoops?
(1:05:01-1:05:42) Conclusion

We’ve talked plenty about Texas Tech and its spending spree in the portal, but what other teams set themselves up for potential success through the portal?

Could Florida State come back from a horrific 2-10 season with two new coordinators and a radically revamped roster?

Did Ole Miss simply create a new window for playoff contention with another portal haul?

Everyone expects Oregon to be good, but can the Ducks contend for a national title with several key spots filled by players who transferred in this offseason?

Is Rich Rodriguez trying to do at West Virginia what Curt Cignetti did at Jacksonville State?

Has USC gotten its NIL operation in order in a way that allows the Trojans to regularly beat out national title contenders for players? It certainly seems that way.

It’s also a Dear Andy/Dear Ari show, and you have some incredible questions…

Which college football program would get the highest valuation?

If you had no rooting interest and got to choose a college football team to back, which team would be the most fun to root for over the next 20 years?

Could the College Football Playoff simply require teams play a minimum number of power conference games?

Plus, the Random Ranking is back. Andy, Ari, and Producer River rank the movies that don’t have sequels but maybe should.

Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia continues to liven up the college football world, this time with a pledge on the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast that after this season Vanderbilt will “run” the state of Tennessee.

This came as conference commissioners were meeting in Asheville, N.C., to discuss the CFP format for 2026 and beyond.
