The NCAA's Administrative Committee still needs to formally adopt the rule change. It’s expected to vote on the new transfer window on Oct. 1.

Currently, the two windows for players to enter the transfer portal are from Dec. 9 through 28, following the regular season, and April 16 through 25, following spring practice. Players can enter the portal during that window, but are not required to select their new school – or in rare cases, return to their old one – during the window.

Moving both windows to one 10-day period from Jan. 2 through 11 could negatively impact teams that make deep runs in the College Football Playoff, as in both 2024 and 2025, the CFP semifinals and championship game were scheduled for Jan. 8 or later. There were special five-day windows following the conclusion of the season for teams that played after the December window this past season, which is likely to continue for CFP semifinalists should the new 10-day January window be adopted.

Players are also still expected to receive a 30-day transfer portal window in the event of a head coach departing from their current team.

Brent Venables eats freshman QBs alive, which means a 'trial by fire' for Michigan's Bryce Underwood

Brent Venables eats freshman QBs alive, which means a 'trial by fire' for Michigan's Bryce Underwood​

Venables is 21-5 against freshman QBs dating back to 2012​

Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood kicked off his collegiate career with a bang, completing 67.7% of his passes for 251 yards and one touchdown with no interceptions in a 34-17 victory over New Mexico in Week 1.

However, things are about to get significantly more difficult for the top-ranked recruit from the 2025 class, as the Wolverines face No. 18 Oklahoma on the road this Saturday.

The Sooners opened their season with a commanding 35-3 victory over Illinois State in Week 1, and the CBS Sports College Football Insiders crew identified several reasons Michigan could struggle in Memorial Stadium on Saturday.

"Venables as a play caller going up against a true freshman is going to be a very interesting watch on Saturday," Chris Hummer of CBS Sports and 247Sports said Tuesday on College Football Insiders. "Venables is one of the most creative play-callers in the country in terms of generating pressure."

Venables, in fact, is 21-5 against freshman quarterbacks (true or redshirt) dating back to the beginning of his tenure as Clemson's defensive coordinator and spanning through his current gig (18-1 at Clemson, 3-4 at Oklahoma). In those games against Venables, the freshman QBs have helmed offenses that averaged 20.2 points per game. Whether they were 18 or 19 years old, the freshman classification is a telling filter: QBs on their first run of extensive college action, with limited experience in various defensive looks, are all the same.

3-4 at Oklahoma though. You know, the place he is HC and doesn't have the opposing team's signs. Another meteor game for me.

Oklahoma isn't in the same stratosphere of hate as scUM, especially after getting away with all the cheating

Why Grambling State is the perfect opponent for Ohio State football this week​

The Ohio State football team needs a team like this coming off the Texas game.



The Ohio State football team had the toughest possible first game of the season. They had to welcome the number-one team in the country to the Shoe, which is not an easy task. Texas ended up walking out of the Shoe with a loss, winning the game 14-7.

It was a much lower-scoring game than the Ohio State Buckeyes were hoping for. They would have loved it if they could have opened up the offense a little more so that Julian Sayin could get into the rhythm of the offense as a first-time starter. This week's opponent will allow him to do that.

Sayin will get to take on Grambling State, which is best known for its band. From a football team standpoint, the Buckeyes should have no issue winning this game. In fact, they are perfect to play a week after Texas because this game will allow Sayin to sling it around at will.

The Ohio State football team will allow Julian Sayin to sling the ball around against Grambling State​

Without the pressures of a top-ranked team coming into the Shoe this weekend, they can allow Sayin to throw the ball to Jeremiah Smith more often. He was getting double and triple-teamed while he was playing against the Longhorns, just as he was in the Cotton Bowl.

Getting Sayin comfortable as quickly as possible is something that is high on the priority list for the Buckeyes. He needs to be able to chuck the ball all over the field if Ohio State wants to have a shot at winning a second-straight national championship, which is their stated goal.

The Tigers won't offer much resistance on that front, so Sayin might be able to have 300+ yards in three quarters of football, which is likely all he will play before being rested. There is no need for him to play the entire game, as the risk of him getting hurt is too high.

Ohio State's defense should play with the same vigor as it did against Texas, so it wouldn't be surprising to see that unit pitch a shutout against Grambling State. In fact, it would be quite surprising if the starters allowed the Tigers to score more than 14 points.

This is a game that should feature plenty of backups. That should mean that it will be a stress-free victory for the Buckeyes, something they need after the opener.

Zach Smith was saying today (dildo) that while Matt Patricia's defense was good, it isn't notably complex or novel. He contrasted it with the mythical Venables defenses that somehow lined up in unsound formations with wild stemming and somehow always worked. What Patricia has been able to teach these kids by game one has been phenomenal, and I believe by the end of the season his defense will be significantly more advanced. Venables is just cashing in the check he "earned" by being Stalions 1.0 and not having been caught.
