The first-ever episode of the NEW Locked On Pac-12 is here, and we're diving straight into one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding the new-look Pac-12 Conference. National media outlets continue to rank Group of Six contenders ahead of the 2026 college football season, but are they seriously underrating the Pac-12? After ON3 released its latest G6 rankings, Christian Rauh breaks down why several Pac-12 programs are being overlooked, including Washington State and Texas State, while examining where Boise State, San Diego State, and Fresno State landed on the list. In Segment 2, we focus on Texas State and why the Bobcats may have one of the most dangerous offenses in college football. With quarterback Brad Jackson returning alongside elite wide receivers Beau Sparks and Chris Dawn Jr., Christian explains why Texas State's receiving corps deserves national attention and why the Bobcats could surprise many people in their first season in the Pac-12. Then in Segment 3, former Locked On Pac-12 host and current Locked On College Football host Spencer McLaughlin joins the show to discuss the outlook for San Diego State Aztecs, the future of head coach Sean Lewis, concerns about the Aztecs' defense, and whether San Diego State can compete for a Pac-12 Championship and College Football Playoff spot in 2026.
