Fox Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reveals the 10 games that will shape the 2026 College Football Season. From huge early season Big Ten-SEC matchups between Michigan and Oklahoma and Ohio State at Texas to the return of Lane Kiffin to Oxford, he breaks down which games will have the biggest impact on the sport in 2026. Klatt explains why a cross-country trip could determine if USC is ready to make a Playoff push and why a rematch of the Big Ten Championship Game gives Indiana a huge opportunity to assert themselves over the Buckeyes. Miami’s trip to South Bend offers the Fighting Irish a chance to avenge the loss that kept them out of last year’s Playoff and “The Game” between Ohio State and Michigan will have a new coach looking to put his stamp on the rivalry.
