REBELLION: Big Ten DECLARES WAR on Preseason Polls | Will SEC Officials CAVE to Fan Pressure?

Is eliminating preseason polls the right move for college football? Chris Gordy tackles this controversial topic head-on, breaking down why the Big Ten's suggestion might be off the mark. We already know a lot about teams before the season starts - recruiting, returning players, transfers. About 10-15 preseason top teams usually stay strong. The real issue is not reacting enough week-to-week. What do you think - keep preseason polls or scrap them? Gordy also serves up the latest recruiting buzz, including Kentucky's offensive line boost and Alabama's steal from Georgia Tech. Get exclusive insights from John McDaid, SEC officiating coordinator, as he discusses the infamous Texas-Georgia game incident and new rules shaking up the upcoming season. He said the official second-guessed himself during the long pause, not because of fan reactions. It was a unique situation in his 19 years of experience. Do you think this sets a dangerous precedent for fan behavior influencing calls? From targeting calls to game time management, this episode covers it all. Don't miss McDade's candid take on officiating challenges and his vision for the future of SEC football. McDaid says they've improved consistency in calling targeting, but fans still misunderstand the rule. Did you know not all helmet-to-helmet contact is targeting? What's your take on the current targeting rules?
