Greg Sankey Declares WAR on Big 12, ACC | SEC, Big Ten Power Grab in 2026

Greg Sankey dropped a bomb on college football Tuesday morning, calling out the ACC and Big 12 and throwing serious shade at NCAA leadership. On this episode of HOF College Football with Jason & The Coach, we break down Sankey’s fiery comments — including his pointed jab: “I don’t need lectures from others about the good of the game” — and explore what it means for the future of the College Football Playoff.

With SEC presidents questioning why they’re still tied to the NCAA and both the SEC and Big Ten demanding 4 auto-bids in the expanded 2026 CFP format, are we watching a hostile takeover of the sport’s postseason? And what happens to schools left behind?

Join Jason Watkins and Coach Phillip Roybal as they dissect the growing rift in college football, what’s really at stake in Sankey’s power play, and whether this is the beginning of the end for the NCAA’s role in the sport.
