The Protect College Sports Act appears to be losing momentum in Congress, and that could end up being one of the biggest wins the Pac-12 has received in months. On today's Locked On Pac-12, we break down why the latest reports surrounding the Protect College Sports Act could actually help the conference's long-term future, especially as realignment continues to shape college athletics. If the bill doesn't pass, what does it mean for Pac-12 expansion, future membership, and the next wave of conference movement? Plus, I react to new Pac-12 position group rankings that have some questionable takes. Is Boise State really the best at nearly every position? Why is Washington State being overlooked at running back and linebacker? Which teams deserve far more respect heading into the 2026 season? Finally, Spencer McLaughlin and I continue our Pac-12 season preview series with Oregon State, breaking down the Beavers' schedule, expectations under Jamarcus Shepard, and whether bowl eligibility is realistic in Year 1.

Can San Diego State compete for a Pac-12 Championship in its first season back in the conference? On today's episode of Locked On Pac-12, we break down why Sean Lewis has completely transformed the Aztecs into one of the most intriguing teams entering the 2026 college football season. After an impressive turnaround, San Diego State returns an explosive offense led by quarterback Jaden Denegal, standout running back Lucky Sutton, and wide receiver Jordan Napier. The biggest question remains on defense after losing several key contributors, including first-round NFL Draft pick Chris Johnson. Can Demetrius Sumler keep the Aztecs among the nation's top defenses despite replacing so much production? We also discuss Spencer McLaughlin's early win projections, where San Diego State fits in the new Pac-12 hierarchy, College Football Playoff expectations, and why the Aztecs could be battling Boise State, Fresno State, Washington State, and Oregon State for a conference championship. If Sean Lewis gets another elite season from his offense while the defense develops quickly, San Diego State could become one of the biggest surprises in college football.

Oregon State enters the 2026 college football season with plenty of questions surrounding its defense, but one position group stands above the rest: linebacker. Christian Rauh is joined by Ryan Harlan of BeaversEdge.com to break down why Oregon State's linebacker room could become the foundation of Mike MacIntyre's new defensive system.

The NCAA has officially approved the new 5-for-5 eligibility rule, marking one of the biggest changes in college athletics in decades. Redshirts are effectively gone, every athlete now receives five years to compete within a five-year window, and the decision could reshape roster construction, recruiting, player development, NIL, the transfer portal, and even future lawsuits. In this episode, we break down what the NCAA's new eligibility model means for Gonzaga Basketball, the new Pac-12, and college basketball as a whole. We discuss the immediate impact on players, coaches, recruiting strategies, injury management, international prospects, and why the rule could create significant legal challenges from players seeking additional eligibility. We also look ahead to the 2027 NBA Draft, highlighting Gonzaga's top NBA prospects, Utah State's Mason Falslev, Oregon State's emerging talent, and other Pac-12 players who could hear their names called next June. If you're looking for a complete breakdown of the NCAA's new 5-for-5 rule, Gonzaga basketball, Pac-12 basketball, college basketball recruiting, transfer portal news, NIL, and NBA Draft prospects, this episode has you covered.

Texas State lands a major coup by hiring running backs coach Kiel McDonald, injecting NFL and Power 4 pedigree into the Bobcats’ staff as they gear up for their Pac-12 debut.

Christian Rauh and Gavin Hite examine the recruiting implications, McDonald’s Texas ties, and the paths for immediate and long-term offensive growth. Elsewhere, San Diego State eyes a contract extension for head coach Sean Lewis after a standout season, but does their defense stack up for another run? The podcast breaks down the Aztecs’ challenging non-conference slate—featuring four first-year head coaches—and San Diego State’s shot at a 4-0 start. Plus, Washington State’s strategic front office hire and evolving fundraising efforts signal a new era for Cougars athletics.

On this episode of Locked On Pac-12, Christian Rauh joins Spencer McLaughlin of Locked On College Football to break down the growing concerns surrounding CFP expansion, scheduling challenges, conference championship games, and what the future of postseason college football could look like.

Boise State head coach Spencer Danielson has once again been overlooked, and the latest Group of 6 head coach rankings prove it. Despite leading Boise State to multiple winning seasons, a College Football Playoff appearance, and dominating UNLV during his tenure, Danielson was ranked behind UNLV head coach Dan Mullen in On3's latest Group of 6 coaching rankings. The decision has sparked major debate across college football. In this episode of Locked On Pac-12, Christian Rauh breaks down why Danielson deserves to be the No. 1 coach in the Group of 6, examines the flaws in the rankings, and discusses what this says about the national perception of Boise State and the new Pac-12. The show also dives into Colorado State head coach Jim Mora's placement in the rankings, why San Diego State's Sean Lewis may have been the biggest omission, and which Pac-12 coaches could rise dramatically during the 2026 season. Topics Include: • Spencer Danielson vs Dan Mullen debate • Boise State's College Football Playoff success • Jim Mora and Colorado State expectations • Sean Lewis and San Diego State's future • Pac-12 coaching rankings • Group of 6 football hierarchy • College football coaching debates Subscribe for daily Pac-12 football coverage, recruiting news, coaching analysis, rankings, and conference updates.

A new proposal from Major League Baseball could completely reshape the future of college baseball, and the Pac-12 may be one of the biggest winners. MLB owners have proposed eliminating high school players from entering the MLB Draft while also reducing the draft from 20 rounds to 12. If approved, top prospects would be required to spend at least two seasons in college before becoming draft eligible, dramatically increasing the talent level across college baseball. On this episode of Locked On Pac-12, Christian Rauh breaks down what the proposal means for the future of college baseball, why Oregon State, Washington State, and the new-look Pac-12 could benefit more than almost any conference in the country, and how the growing popularity of the sport could accelerate even further. The show also discusses Oregon State's hiring of former Beaver and professional pitching coach Andrew Moore. After spending the last three seasons in the Cleveland Guardians organization, Moore returns to Corvallis with the goal of helping Oregon State remain one of the premier pitching programs in the nation. Former players and coaches have already praised the move as a major win for the Beavers. Could this MLB proposal create a new era for college baseball? Could the Pac-12 become one of the sport's premier conferences once again? And is Oregon State positioning itself to take advantage of a changing landscape?

Congress has made significant changes to the Protect College Sports Act, and those adjustments could have major implications for the future of college athletics, conference realignment, and the Pac-12 Conference. In this episode of Locked On Pac-12, Christian Rauh breaks down the latest developments surrounding the Protect College Sports Act, including new provisions that could prevent the SEC, Big Ten, ACC, and Big 12 from expanding if they exceed a specific revenue threshold. What would that mean for future realignment? Could schools like Florida State, Clemson, Boise State, Washington State, or Oregon State see their options change dramatically? We also discuss whether the Pac-12 should respond aggressively by pursuing additional expansion candidates such as Memphis, Tulane, East Carolina, USF, James Madison, UConn, Navy, or other Group of Six programs. If this legislation passes, could it create a pathway for the Pac-12 to rebuild toward power-conference status once again? Topics Covered: Protect College Sports Act explained Ted Cruz and congressional involvement in college athletics Pac-12 expansion and future realignment SEC, Big Ten, ACC, and Big 12 restrictions Boise State, Washington State, Oregon State outlook Memphis, Tulane, USF, and AAC expansion possibilities The future of power conferences What happens to college football after 2030?

Washington State enters the new Pac-12 era with plenty of questions, but there may be more reasons for optimism than many realize. New head coach Kirby Moore has quickly energized the program following a turbulent coaching transition. After spending the past several seasons helping build one of college football's most productive offenses at Missouri, Moore arrives in Pullman with a clear vision, strong Pacific Northwest ties, and a coaching staff that has already generated excitement throughout the program. One of the biggest reasons for optimism is Washington State's running back room. Returning contributors like Kirby Vorhees, Leo Pulalasi, and Max Woods give the Cougars multiple proven options in the backfield. Vorhees, who rushed for 576 yards and five touchdowns last season, appears poised for a potential breakout campaign under Moore's offensive system. The excitement doesn't stop there. Washington State's 2026 recruiting class has already produced plenty of buzz, particularly surrounding versatile athlete Lance McGee. The Washington Gatorade Player of the Year could see opportunities on both sides of the football as a linebacker and running back. Moore himself has acknowledged the possibility of utilizing McGee in multiple roles to maximize his impact. The Cougars are also benefiting from strong regional connections throughout the coaching staff, including defensive coordinator Trent Bray. Those Northwest roots are already paying dividends on the recruiting trail and helping establish a foundation for long-term stability inside the new Pac-12. Can Kirby Moore's leadership, a loaded running back room, and an impressive young recruiting class help Washington State emerge as one of the biggest surprises in the conference? On today's episode of Locked On Pac-12, Christian Rauh and Gavin Hite break down why the Cougars may be positioned to exceed expectations in Year 1 of the new Pac-12 era.

The new PAC-12 officially launches in less than two weeks, but can the conference compete with programs like Oregon, USC, UCLA and Arizona State on the recruiting trail? On this special Locked On College Crossover, Christian Rauh is joined by recruiting expert Brian Smith of Locked On The Portal to break down the future of PAC-12 recruiting, why San Diego State is emerging as an early recruiting winner, and what Washington State may have found in quarterback Kaden Pittick. The conversation dives into Sean Lewis' recruiting strategy at San Diego State, the importance of keeping California talent home, why JUCO recruiting could become a major advantage for PAC-12 programs, and what schools like Washington State, Oregon State, Boise State and Fresno State must do to raise the overall talent level of the conference. Plus, Brian explains why Caden Pinnick could become one of the most important players in the PAC-12 rebuild after posting over 3,000 passing yards and 32 touchdowns at UC Davis before transferring to Washington State. Most importantly, the guys discuss the uncomfortable reality facing the new PAC-12: what will it actually take to compete against the recruiting powerhouses of the West? NIL, social media, television exposure, facilities, development, and relationships all play a major role in determining whether the conference can thrive or simply survive. Topics Include: PAC-12 recruiting rankings update San Diego State's 2027 recruiting class Sean Lewis recruiting strategy Washington State QB Caden Pinnick PAC-12 recruiting vs Oregon and USC California recruiting battles NIL and media exposure impact How the PAC-12 can become a national player again Brian Smith recruiting insights Future of the new PAC-12 conference Photo Credit: Darren Yamashita - IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The conversation starts with Fresno State winning key recruiting battles over conference rivals Boise State and San Diego State, including the commitment of linebacker Jeremy Davis. The Bulldogs continue to establish strong recruiting pipelines in California's Central Valley and Nebraska while building a roster with size, physicality, and long-term development in mind.

Utah State faces its toughest test yet as they join the reimagined Pac-12 under Bronco Mendenhall’s leadership. Can McCae Hillstead step out of Bryson Barnes’ shadow and deliver a breakout season, or will Texas State, Boise State, and Fresno State keep the Aggies on the ropes? Christian Rauh and Brady Clark break down the revamped quarterback battle, the emergence of Jayven Jacobs in the backfield, and whether Robert Anae’s return as offensive coordinator can elevate the team’s scoring attack. The conversation spotlights a rebuilt receiving corps, a standout linebacking trio led by Harrison Taggart, and the pivotal roles of Brevin Hamblin and Chapman Lewis in the secondary. With a daunting non-conference slate and a make-or-break defense, Utah State’s path to bowl eligibility is anything but certain. Is a surprise Pac-12 run in the cards, or will the Aggies need time to find their footing? Photo Credit: Marco Garcia-IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

On this episode of Locked On Pac-12, Christian Rauh breaks down what Teresa Gould's contract extension means for the future of the conference, why PAC-12 leadership wanted stability ahead of the league's official relaunch, and how Gould helped guide the conference through one of the most turbulent periods in college sports history.

The new Pac-12 officially arrives in July 2026, and one program may be positioned to benefit more than anyone else: Gonzaga. In this special Locked On Pac-12 and Locked On Zags crossover, Christian Rauh and Andy Patton break down why Gonzaga's move from the WCC to the Pac-12 could create a significant financial, recruiting, and competitive advantage for the Bulldogs moving forward.

The first-ever episode of the NEW Locked On Pac-12 is here, and we're diving straight into one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding the new-look Pac-12 Conference. National media outlets continue to rank Group of Six contenders ahead of the 2026 college football season, but are they seriously underrating the Pac-12? After ON3 released its latest G6 rankings, Christian Rauh breaks down why several Pac-12 programs are being overlooked, including Washington State and Texas State, while examining where Boise State, San Diego State, and Fresno State landed on the list. In Segment 2, we focus on Texas State and why the Bobcats may have one of the most dangerous offenses in college football. With quarterback Brad Jackson returning alongside elite wide receivers Beau Sparks and Chris Dawn Jr., Christian explains why Texas State's receiving corps deserves national attention and why the Bobcats could surprise many people in their first season in the Pac-12. Then in Segment 3, former Locked On Pac-12 host and current Locked On College Football host Spencer McLaughlin joins the show to discuss the outlook for San Diego State Aztecs, the future of head coach Sean Lewis, concerns about the Aztecs' defense, and whether San Diego State can compete for a Pac-12 Championship and College Football Playoff spot in 2026.

Could a 24-team College Football Playoff completely change the future of the new PAC-12? In this episode of Pac-12 Daily, Christian Rauh breaks down the growing momentum behind College Football Playoff expansion and why the proposed format could either elevate or hurt conferences outside the Power Four. The discussion dives into the American Football Coaches Association’s support for major postseason changes, including expanding the CFP field, eliminating conference championship games, and restructuring the college football calendar. The episode explores what those changes could mean for programs like Washington State, Boise State, Oregon State, San Diego State, and the rest of the rebuilt PAC-12 conference. Would a larger playoff actually create more access for Group of Six schools, or would it simply give the SEC and Big Ten more spots? The show examines strength of schedule concerns, nonconference scheduling strategy, CFP resume building, and why Washington State’s brutal 2026 schedule could become the blueprint for future playoff contention. Topics include: 24-team College Football Playoff expansion PAC-12 playoff chances in the new era Washington State football scheduling strategy Boise State and San Diego State CFP outlook SEC and Big Ten influence on playoff expansion Group of Six access concerns College football conference championship debate PAC-12 national relevance in 2026 and beyond Subscribe to Pac-12 Daily for daily coverage, analysis, recruiting discussion, conference news, and the future of the new PAC-12 Conference.

Gonzaga Basketball is heading into one of the most fascinating offseason transitions in recent memory. After losing multiple rotation players and veterans through graduation and the transfer portal, many fans are wondering if Mark Few and the Bulldogs are finally vulnerable entering the new Pac-12 era. But despite all the roster turnover, Gonzaga may still have one of the best teams in college basketball heading into the 2026 season. On this episode of Pac-12 Daily, Christian Rauh is joined by Andy Patton of Locked On Zags to break down Gonzaga’s offseason, transfer portal additions, breakout candidates, and what this roster could look like in the new Pac-12 Conference. The discussion dives into the departures of players like Emmanuel Innocenti, Braden Smith, and Steele Venters, while also explaining why Gonzaga prioritized keeping Brayden Huff, Davis Fogel, and Mario Saint-Supery as the core of the future. The episode also explores why Davis Fogel could become one of college basketball’s biggest breakout stars next season and how Gonzaga’s incoming transfer class, including Arizona State center Masamba Diop and former Houston guard Isaiah Harwell, could elevate the Bulldogs back into national championship contention. Gonzaga’s rim protection, roster balance, three-point shooting concerns, and NCAA Tournament ceiling are all discussed in detail. Additionally, the conversation examines Mark Few’s future as Gonzaga prepares for life in the Pac-12. With Few approaching 800 career wins and entering the Hall of Fame, questions are beginning to surface about how much longer he plans to coach and what Gonzaga basketball could look like after his eventual retirement.

Fresno State might be the MOST UNDERRATED team entering the new Pac-12… and it starts with one thing: retention. In this episode, we break down why the Bulldogs are quietly building one of the most dangerous rosters in the conference heading into 2026. Year 2 under the current staff is showing real signs of identity, culture, and continuity—and that’s something most programs in this new era simply don’t have. From returning production across the offense to a defense built on turnovers and physicality, Fresno State is bringing back key contributors at nearly every position. This includes top running backs, their leading receiver, and major defensive playmakers—all while avoiding the transfer portal losses that have crippled other programs. But the biggest question remains: quarterback. With a wide-open QB battle featuring multiple young and athletic options, Fresno State could unlock a more dynamic offense in 2026. Adding mobility at the position and expanding the playbook could be the difference between another solid season… and a true conference title run. We also dive into: Why retention is becoming Fresno State’s biggest competitive advantage How the “Valley pipeline” is fueling long-term success Breakout players to watch on BOTH sides of the ball What needs to improve for Fresno State to go from 9 wins → 11+ wins Why this team fits perfectly into the new Pac-12 landscape Bottom line: Fresno State isn’t just building a good team—they’re building a sustainable program. And in this version of college football, that might be the ultimate edge. If you’re a fan of Fresno State football, Pac-12 expansion, or college football sleepers… this is a team you need to be paying attention to NOW.

Oregon State football spring update is here, and the biggest storyline is impossible to ignore… the Beavers still do not have a starting quarterback. With spring practice underway, JaMarcus Shephard has made it clear that the Oregon State Beavers football program will NOT name a QB1 anytime soon. In fact, a decision may not come until just days before the season opener. Is that confidence in the quarterback room… or a major red flag? In this episode of Pac-12 Daily, we break down: The wide open QB competition between Maalik Murphy, Brady Jones, and Braden Atkinson Why Oregon State is delaying a starting quarterback decision What this means for the Beavers offense heading into the season How the new coaching staff is changing the identity of the program Key spring takeaways including physicality, discipline, and roster development Oregon State enters the season as one of the biggest mysteries in college football. New system. New energy. But one massive unanswered question at the most important position on the field. If the Beavers don’t figure out quarterback… nothing else may matter.

Oregon State shakes up Pac-12 football recruiting with the commitments of standout wide receivers Ayden Payne and Landon White. With new head coach Jamarcus Shepard, a former Alabama wide receivers coach, can the Beavers’ receiver room reach new heights? Payne’s explosive playmaking and rare ability to rack up yards after the catch draw Jerry Rice comparisons, while White’s Power 4 offers raise expectations for immediate impact. Recruiting expert Brian Smith spotlights San Diego State’s impressive 2027 class, highlighting JUCO center Justice Turner’s plug-and-play potential, receiver Jayden Flores’ uncommon combination of size and skill, and linebacker Isaiah Phelps’ high IQ and versatility. The conversation tackles how talent acquisition in the trenches could reshape conference power dynamics and unpacks the potential impact of the Protect College Sports Act on programs like Oregon State and San Diego State. Will these moves set up a new Pac-12 powerhouse? Photo Credit: Kevin Neri-IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
