Welcome to Week 2 of the **HOF Top 12+ College Football Show**.
Jason Watkins recaps the first HOF Top 12+ rankings and the First Four Out, gives a short reminder on why college football does not need a 24-team playoff and takes a closer look at the teams outside the Top 16 with the loudest complaints — Louisville, Washington, Tennessee and Texas Tech.
Then Texas Tech goes to **Resume Court**.

Are the Red Raiders being treated like a national contender before proving they belong? And how should college football view Texas Tech’s aggressive portal spending, NIL operation and legal fight over transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby?
The main topic centers on the hypocrisy surrounding college football reform. Cody Campbell, Nick Saban and others say they want structure, guardrails and stability in college sports. But what happens when the rules threaten their roster, their money, their quarterback or their competitive advantage?
Plus, Texas creator **Really Flawed** joins the show for **Defend Your Team**, breaking down Steve Sarkisian, Texas, the Longhorns’ war of words with Texas Tech and whether Texas is truly ready to win a national championship.
Tonight’s show:
* HOF Top 12+ recap
* First Four Out reminder
* Why 24 CFP teams is still too many
* Outside Looking In: Louisville, Washington, Tennessee and Texas Tech
* Resume Court: Texas Tech
* Brendan Sorsby vs. the NCAA

Drop your thoughts in the comments: Is Texas Tech a real contender, or just an offseason headline? And are college football’s reformers trying to save the sport — or save their own advantage?
