Phil Steele joins “The Locker Room” to discuss the latest issue of “Phil Steele’s College Football Preview”, gives his thoughts on the Bulldogs and Yellow Jackets heading into the 2026 season, and other hot topics from around college football!
They’ve got a new quarterback, but he does like Alberto Mendoza coming in. He’s a guy that’s really smart, processes information, hasn’t started a game yet, but he’s really talented. Watch out for him. He’s going to have a good year. Offensive line, once again, you’ve got a coach that knows how to develop an offensive line. Malachi Carney’s an NFL caliber dude. I’m anxious to watch this defensive line. Last year, they gave up 4.6 yards per carry and 164 yards per game on the ground. If that defensive line’s improved, they should be better.
