Will the CFP Committee's Rankings be Like the AP Poll? + Did Maryland make the right call keeping Mike Locksley?

Is the AP Poll slow to react or is the CFP committee about to make the same mistakes? Full college football playoff news and top 25 reaction! Big Ten Huddle brings you daily college football playoff rankings updates, Big Ten news, and honest takes on Oregon football, Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, USC football, Indiana, and more.

JR and Jeff debate whether this is the right or wrong move, dive into the damning stats (0 wins vs Big Ten teams .500+ in conference), the recruiting implications, the favorable 2026 schedule, and why fans are furious.

We break down:
Why firing Locksley right now could destroy the roster
The three straight bowl wins vs the brutal October collapses
How much the $1 million buyout actually factored in
2026 schedule look-ahead (no Oregon, Michigan, or Indiana!)
