10 Burning Questions going into the 2026 Season

विवरण

Fox Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt lists his 10 burning questions in the sport as we head into Week 1 of the season. He breaks down questions like how many teams can actually win the National Championship this year and who could be this year’s Indiana that shocks the sport. Will Arch Manning and Texas take the next step and bring the Longhorns to the promised land? Klatt also looks at which new Coaches will make the biggest impact in Year 1 at their new school and points out the coordinator changes at top programs that could very well determine who wins it all. He evaluates the recent weeks at LSU and whether Lane Kiffin can manage the self-inflicted distractions and lead the Tigers to a successful season as the sport’s new villain. Klatt also makes his Heisman pick as he debates between players like Ohio State’s Julian Sayin & Jeremiah Smith and Notre Dame’s C.J.
