I commend Michigan. They have answered a question no one else had the courage to ask. What happens when you give $15 million to a 17 year old who doesn't know how to play QB and immediately name him your starter?

Yes, but did anyone learn a lesson?

Probably not. Pros are overpaid and now college kids are also. More money than sense.

False.

You're fixated at the QBs while ignoring most of the league isn't a QB. You're actually significantly underpaid, with little coverage for your future on basically worthless contracts will low leverage due to the lack of guarantee

All a matter of opinion. If they get the FREE education, they can do other things for a living after football. Minimum pay is $845,000 for roster players. I'm sure 90% of the nation would love to make that. If invested right they are set for life.

This is not an opinion this is fact. The only league without guaranteed contracts, which has strong payroll constraints, poor player protection and even worse post-play medical support.

It's absolutely insulting to even say anything otherwise.

There is no free education because last I checked I got scholarship offers because I EARNED them they didn't give them to everyone hence why some of you are so bitter about that.

Nothing is free and just because you have some odd bitterness against people you don't even know because they had an experience you wish you had doesn't change a thing

FSU looking good on this first drive against Louisville.

It's incredible when you think about it Ole Miss struggled to beat this Louisville team and im a ranked vs ranked match up the first week.

Since then Louisville has lost two more times.. Ole Miss beats LSU but is exposed to have a terrible defense and gets ran out of Gainesville.

So why do we rate Ole Miss so high? Including LSU? They use each other to prop up, one as a best loss and the other as a best win. Neither actually have shown anything against a team currently proven.

Florida State might be viewed as a good win at the end of the season.

Norvell is an idiot.

Never give up guaranteed points on the road.

Then Louisville breaks a 98 yard TD run.

Florida State had a chip shot FG to go up 17-0.

They go for it on 4th and Goal and get stuffed.

Now the score is 14-14.

FSU is a reasonably talented team coached by an idiot.

Pretty much. These guys could have been up 17 or 21 to zero and are now down 14-28.

I thought they were a decent team but as you said they have decent talent their coaches are morons.

I don't even think they're a decent team. They got absolutely manhandled on the LOS on defense. Louisville got the edge almost every play after the first quarter.

Nebraska looking good against Indiana, but it's early.

I've been assured by Indiana fans, who started watching cfb a year & a half ago, that they would never lose again.
