Summary

CBS Sports identifies six college football programs poised for a strong run through the late 2020s. Ohio State, Notre Dame, and Texas are highlighted for their talent, coaching, and resources.

This, particularly pronounced with Alabama's and Georgia's recent challenges, suggests a potential for fewer teams to dominate in the coming years.
