Herbstreit Predicts Where College Football Realignment Is Heading

Another seismic round of conference realignment shook the college football landscape Thursday as USC and UCLA announced their move to the Big Ten.

As the two schools prepare to join the Big Ten for the 2024 season after the league’s presidents and chancellors voted to accept them per Sports Illustrated’s Ross Dellenger, ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit declared that this would not be the last extensive change to the college football landscape.

In fact, Herbstreit believes college football will eventually take a similar structure to the NFL with two divisions along teams from the ACC, Big 12 and Pac 12 looking to keep pace with the Big Ten and the SEC.
