NFL Players Have RUINED College Football?! + 12 Team CFP Predictions | The Walk-Ons

Episode 13: College football is officially on the doorstep!! Jacob Regh and Kevin Walker dive into the latest chaos surrounding NFL players returning to college football, headlined by LSU bringing back former Buccaneers linebacker Jack Pivens after he recorded two sacks in an NFL preseason game. The guys question Lane Kiffin's role in the situation, whether NFL teams are effectively allowing college programs to tamper with their players, and why the SEC and NFL need to establish a clear line between professional and college football. They also revisit the Brendan Sorsby situation, debate whether athletes who sign professional contracts should ever be allowed to return to college, and argue that college eligibility needs to become black and white.

 

Then it's time for the official 2026 College Football Playoff predictions! The guys build their 12-team bracket from scratch, debate the Big Ten vs. SEC, make bold picks involving Indiana, Miami, Texas Tech, Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Ohio State and Notre Dame, and argue over which teams deserve the top seeds. The bracket gets especially heated when Texas Tech faces Texas, Miami takes on Ohio State, and Indiana battles Oregon — ultimately leading to a shocking conclusion: Indiana is picked to repeat as national champion. Are Jacob and Kevin onto something, or are these picks going to age terribly?
