Published On: Wed Oct 22 2025
Description: The college football coaching carousel is out of control — and it all started with Penn State. Zach Seyko (Locked On Nittany Lions) and Jacob Goins (Locked On Hoosiers) react to the ripple effect from James Franklin’s firing, including Florida, LSU, and Auburn now facing similar pressure. They also discuss Indiana’s stability under Kurt Cignetti, Penn State’s heartbreaking 25–24 loss to Iowa, and what the Nittany Lions can salvage the rest of 2025. Plus, Week 9 Big Ten picks and predictions — with some surprises across the conference.Become an every-dayer!
