EXPANSION: ACC Fighting FSU, Clemson Jump to Big Ten

Locked On Big 10 – Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast

Here is the latest college football expansion and realignment chatter: Florida State and Clemson continue with their lawsuits vs the ACC with an eye toward jumping to a more lucrative conference like the Big Ten. We believe a settlement is the only way out of this college football mess. However, ACC commissioner Jim Phillips is not going to sit by passively and watch his most prestigious college football teams jump ship to the Big Ten without a fight.

EXECUTE THE TV DEAL!

Speaking to the media this week, Phillips said the ACC media rights deal was agreed to and celebrated by all parties involved when signed. He feels the deal should continue to be executed… all the way to its 2036 conclusion. We will share our latest thoughts on all of this

PENN STATE AND RUTGERS WAY TO GO!

Penn State football recruiting continues to play "win some and lose some" with some high profile recruits. Overall, 2025 is shaping up nicely. They did, however lose a 4-star player to Rutgers. Have you noticed Rutgers football recruiting?? They have a top ten national class of their own coming in. Greg Schiano has been impressive.

BREATHE EASY MICHIGAN

We also check in on a couple of Michigan football commits who took visits elsewhere. One of them was even taking a look a rival Michigan State and that got a lot of people's attention. But it looks like the Wolverines can rest easy for now.

CLASSICS

Finally, we look ahead to the last weekend of June with our preview of the Big Ten Network's Big Ten Classics on Craig Shemon's Locked on Big 10.
