BIG 10 SQUAD: Big 10 Playoff Hopes Keep GOING DOWN | Week 9 Conference Outlook

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 29 Oct 2026 21:00:00 GMT

Big Ten playoff hopes teeter as quarterback questions dominate conference headlines. With Ohio State, UCLA, and Indiana battling adversity — especially at the QB spot — experts debate whether the Big Ten could be limited to just one playoff team this season. Shocking upsets, strength of schedule concerns, and the impact of injuries have fan bases on edge, sparking tough conversations about the league's true contenders.

The discussion explores Ohio State’s playoff path, UCLA’s surprisingly resilient campaign, and whether Wisconsin can keep its hot streak alive. Panelists break down the pivotal Ohio State vs. USC matchup, Iowa-Wisconsin’s defensive slugfest, and Purdue’s surprising rise. Trends in quarterback performances, Big Ten versus SEC selection odds, and what each program needs to secure a playoff berth take center stage. Can the Big Ten avoid being left out in the cold when Selection Sunday arrives?
