Double the size of the playoff? The proposal from the Big Ten, that felt unrealistic months ago, now appears to be a real possibility. Ross Dellenger is at the CFP meetings this week and reports significant momentum behind expanding the College Football Playoff to 24 teams. When, or if, this will happen is still to be determined. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey discuss the impact of such a massive expansion and how the conversation has gotten to this point. 

Then, Ross shares some more information coming from the administration side of college athletics. The College Sports Commission is being challenged for being too restrictive on the deals athletes can sign. The guys discuss how they saw this coming from the start and what may happen as a result. 

Later, it's time to have some draft conversations. The 2026 NFL draft is on Thursday and there have been mixed reviews about this draft class. The quarterback class is viewed as relatively weak, but Andy and Godfrey debate if that is in fact the case. Then, they discuss players who are being undervalued in this 2026 draft. From LSU's Harold Perkins Jr. to Iowa's Logan Jones to Navy's Eli Heidenreich, who are some sleepers that could make a big impact on NFL rosters?

All this and more on today's College Football Enquirer.
