The hosts of the Locked On Podcast Network, representing all 16 Big 12 football programs, have cast their preseason votes — and the results are anything but unanimous. Arizona State football earned several first-place votes, but not enough to be the clear No. 1 heading into the 2024 Big 12 season. In this episode of Locked On Sun Devils, host Richie Bradshaw breaks down the official Big 12 preseason power rankings as voted on by Locked On's experts — and why ASU's reigning Big 12 champion status wasn’t enough to sway all voters. Bradshaw spotlights the Sun Devils’ strong returning core — including quarterback Sam Leavitt, breakout wide receiver Jordyn Tyson, and a defense loaded with experience and depth — as he explains why Arizona State football should be the preseason favorite. But not everyone agrees. How did Houston football land a shocking first-place vote? Why is BYU still hanging in the top six? And what should we make of other contenders like Kansas State, Texas Tech, and Baylor getting preseason hype? We analyze each team’s placement, debate which teams are overrated or underrated, and examine the growing Big 12 football rivalries that could define the 2024 season. With Kenny Dillingham at the helm, can ASU rise above the noise and prove the doubters wrong? Tune in for in-depth analysis, expert insight, and a passionate defense of Arizona State’s place atop the Big 12.

Big 12 shakeup: BYU QB Jake Retzlaff exits, Texas State joins PAC-12. Is college football's landscape shifting dramatically?

Host Drake Toll and the squad analyze Retzlaff's departure from BYU Football and its impact on the Cougars' upcoming season. The team dissects Texas State's surprising move to the PAC-12, exploring potential recruiting battles and conference realignment strategies. Discussions cover Sacramento State's aggressive push into college football prominence and the evolving dynamics of TV revenue in the sport. Jake Hatch offers insider perspectives on BYU's quarterback situation.

Tune in for expert analysis on how these moves could reshape the future of Big 12 Football and beyond.

The Big 12 Conference's quarterback landscape is shifting in perhaps the DEEPEST LEAGUE in the nation for gunslingers. Who will dominate the field this season? Arizona Sun Devils' Sam Leavitt and Kansas State's Avery Johnson are at the center of a heated debate with Baylor's Sawyer Robertson. Hosts Richie Bradshaw and Christian Rauh break down their top 5 QB rankings, including those three, and analyze each signal-caller's potential impact. The discussion extends to key supporting players like ASU's Jordyn Tyson and K-State's Jayce Brown. The Sun Devils and Wildcats are replacing stud running backs, but perhaps a "Moneyball' approach to replace Cam Skattebo and DJ Giddens in the aggregate could be the key. Both programs are also loaded at tight end, which may lead to tons of redzone touchdowns. As the Sun Devils aim to defend their Big 12 title, unexpected challengers emerge like Baylor and Texas Tech. But are the seemingly forgotten about Kansas State Wildcats the Arizona State Sun Devils' biggest threat to ASU's reign? Tune in for expert insights on the Big 12's most electrifying quarterbacks and the teams poised to shake up the conference hierarchy.
