Tha classic “Be careful what you wish for….” 😉

Right now, the ones it hurts most are those who are paying for a lot of it.

Fans

And, I truly believe some players downs the road are going to have serious financial problems thru overspending, NOT making the league (or at a reduced salary) and TAXES!!

It going to be a rude awakening for some.

Of course all we will hear is MORE of how the poor “kids” were “taken advantage of”
🙄🥱

I get but nothing really changed. Money has always been a factor. Players have all came and went they just do it faster and are paid in the open. I am not a fan of where it is going but the results have been fun to watch.
It still is a good product to watch. All the home games were entertaining. Louisville was able to build a legit roster.

The downfall and it is coming will the SEC and Big Ten arrogance. The playoff is good for college football. IU, Arizona State, Boise St and SMU all have a shot at a title that is awesome. It has teams from all 3 time zones. It has incredible 1st round games. It is just packaged differently. Remember when all the big bowl games were on New Year Day? It was awesome. Now you get it next weekend. As a college football fan what more can you want?

It will expand but the ACC and Big 12 need to fight for equal representation. The reality is for the TV people they need the ACC and Big 12 to be good. It generates more viewership. It introduces more fanbases to watch their product. The end game may not change but the road to get there changes every year. It is the best soap opera or TV series ever. The SEC and Big want to blow it up because they want more teams that can’t win it either. That is their arrogance and the TV folks greed. Hopefully, next weekend is a ratings juggernaut.

You never hear the great story of Arizona State without the playoff. SMU who was sentenced to death because they cheated better than Texas counterparts is now playing for a chance to win a title. Yeah let’s blow all this up to get more 3 loss SEC teams in. Greed and arrogance has killed a lot of good things. The Roman Empire eventually failed.

Like I said. He could make people take notice with a great game.

Or he could look like crap with the 2nd string playing with him.

I would take count of who is, and isn’t, playing in the bowl before making a decision.

I know or I least I think you're joking but Brian would have never played for his brother. He's a midget at 6-3.

That would be a mistake in my opinion. He's no sure thing draft pick and he could use the bowl game to change that. The guy has missed so many college games in his career, he needs all the exposure he can get.

And he should want to play the bowl game. This is it for his college career and he has to feel its been a disappointment due to all the games he has missed. Winning a bowl game would be something I think he would like to achieve.

i love it!!!! just a few years ago every top player was going to one of five schools who had deep roots under the table payment systems in place to essential bribe adn pay kids. now it's all open and those blue blood schools no longer control the top talent. and is why NIL is the greatest thing to ever happen to college sports fairness. UK, Duke UNC, Kanasa and the like used always get the top kids. rare was the kid who didn't go to these schools. Now BYU is out bidding everyone. You can go from zero to national champ back to zero again in 15 months and it's awesome. you may not win the title btu every school int he country with a rich booster is now in the game. that's over 330 D1 schools that can realistically buy a title. before it was ten tops.
