#3 Penn State hosting #6 Oregon leads a stacked Week 5 slate in college football. It will be a White Out in Happy Valley on Saturday for the Ducks' first trip into Nittany Lions territory. Oregon got the best of Penn State in last season's Big Ten Championship game, but there is a key difference for Penn State this year. New defensive coordinator Jim Knowles. Knowles knows the Ducks well from facing them twice last season when he was the defensive coordinator for the national champions, Ohio State. Ross Dellenger talked with Knowles in the offseason about making the switch from Columbus to Happy Valley. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey join Ross as they discuss the impact Knowles is having for Penn State this year, how important this game is for James Franklin and what we can expect from this matchup. Later, the guys chat about the release of part of the new SEC conference schedule. The annual opponents for each team have been revealed. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss how these matchups were decided and what we should take away from this new schedule. The rest of the schedule is to be released later today. Plus, the ACC followed the SEC's lead and announced they too will be playing a nine-game conference schedule starting in 2026. Each of the Power 4 conferences is now playing a nine-game conference schedule, but there are still some inequalities among conference schedules. The guys discuss what these are, how they can be adjusted and what this scheduling impact could mean for the future of college football. Lastly, all 32 Division 1 conference commissioners are meeting this weekend. It is expected a new CFP format will be discussed along with a host of other notable topics in the world of college athletics. Ross will be there and while he does not expect there will be much news on the CFP front, there is sure to be plenty of information that will come out of the meetings. We will get his report from the meetings on Thursday. Thursday will also hold a conversation about Oklahoma State's firing of Mike Gundy.
