The NIL and other crap is sucking the life out of college football for me more and more each year.
I feel the same. All the conference realignments, NIL, etc. has tarnished the appeal of college football with me. Will I watch? Most likely but being enthusiastic about it, not so much especially if State ends up being in the West playing Texas, OU, A&M, Mizzou, even arkansas to an extent more regularly than traditional SEC teams like Auburn, Bama, etc. that would just totally suck.
Pigs get fed and hogs get slaughtered. I could be totally wrong but chasing that mighty dollar could end up killing the appeal of the sport for many. Or maybe the new new will end up being better. Who knows really.

As you know, One of my best friends is a MSU guy, and he will be my guest at the Bama game. So I keep up decently.
I think you have every right to be excited about this season. I can see you being 7-0 coming into T-Town.
- I believe you will have a top 10 defense. Remember, Leach has never had a defense because he was in leagues that didn't have the recruiting for it. The whole "Leach doesn't play good defense" is flawed. Ms St is not going to have a horrible defense.
- The offense was close to breaking out. The consistency of the run game is the main issue. When rushing 3, the OL and the RBs have to make them pay. Solve that, and the bigs will have a hard time and you will have a chance to win.
Who is the major concern?
Bama? Yeah, we will be nasty this year.
UGA? Yes, they recruit well, but look at the major losses on that defense. There's opportunity there.
LSU... You lost by 2... your return 18 starters and they return what ...5?
TAMU, you beat... And you have them at home.
Ark.... You beat them all over the field. You missed what, 4 FGs? Lost by 3? On the Road? They have lost Burks and more.
I just don't see how, with a much improved defense (I expect top 10) how you don't win 9.
BTW... thanks for allowing me to post on this board from time to time.
