He makes a good point u can’t act like Fla state had all their starters missing 28 players?

This will continue to be a major problem in the future of college football unless you make these professional football players ( no longer college players) official sign contracts that make them play if not take away money or fine them extensively. I’d the NCAA would come out with a common /?standard for all contracts for D1 this crap would .stop. If not maybe fans should become more interested in FCS teams, where apparently they still play for the love of the game.

The influx of fan interest and the consequent money would ruin *that*, too.

In the end, the fans are responsible for the present state of D1 college football.

I can act like that's completely irrelevant, because it is. They had something to prove in this game. If they can't get their players to understand that and show up, then that's on them. It doesn't mean they deserved a spot in the playoff. It means the opposite.
