Are you dumb as hell? My point was right there: I'd rather see in-conference games that mean something than beating up on nobodies for "recruiting reps."
Nope. That wasn't your point. See below.

If there was one good thing about the 2020 season it was that immediate conference intensity from day 1.
And once they are freshmen playing for the university, it isn't recruiting reps. I can see the confusion for a fan base who doesn't know what to do outside of recruiting season. But it is called player development. And it beat Bama in a big game last season.
My point has always been that half of the conference is below average and that you can't find 4 great conference games a year for your team (3 tops) and probably can only find one great conference season opener in your lifetime.

This is a non-point. There are 130+ FBS teams and only about 10-15 of them are really good. It is an unrealistic goal - mathematically - to want 50-60 "good" games.
So ...
The intensity comes from the fact that in-conference games mean something. They count in standings. We're not playing Southwestern Utah Community College.

You're basically lobbying for an in-season preseason. No thanks.
