Give pro and college sports 5 or.10.more years and watch what it all turns in to.

College screwed up by getting rid of traditions/school connection and trying to move towards a semi-pro league.


Colleges are trying to have their cake and eat it too and it’s failing miserably.

If nothing else the NFL gave Thursday Night football some much better matchups so maybe Al Michaels will show some enthusiasm

Sounds like going to a bar to watch this day is mandatory.

I hate all of the changes to the sport I grew up loving. I want to see it fail spectacularly.

It isn't college football anymore. It's a shitty, watered down version of the NFL.

^This. College Football has always been my favorite sport, but NIL and the CFP changed this. I hate what CFB has become and is headed to. Sometimes, change is not better.

Do you care about tv ratings? Does it impact your viewing of the games?

I don’t, but following this board for a week will teach you there are people that very much do

They literally do not care. They corner the market. Some recent discussions.

Christmas Day: vs. NBA
President's Day: vs. Daytona 500

They will schedule games whenever they want and do not care who it's up against. Roger Goodell would schedule games every week if he could.

It's the annual unlimited free agency and the constant conference realignment. Traditions and rivalries are what made college football special. As traditions and rivalries get whittled away every year, what's left?

Product for you to consume, until the next season's product. Traditions and rivalries are for Europeans.

Soccer teams literally have their main sponsors name front and center on their uniforms. Most of them don’t have the team name anywhere on the jersey either.
