Sure there is. Stop watching. If the ratings plummet enough for long enough, the TV execs running the sport might notice.

The product is still good enough on its own and there are no alternatives. They got us by the balls and all we can do is pout.

What I’ve noticed from young people is that they pull for the team they placed a bet on. Some don’t care at all about college sports.

Sports gambling is is becoming the biggest pastime for many.

Not really. It isn't college football anymore. None of these hired gun mercenaries have anything to do with the schools other than being paid to play there. They aren't real students, they don't interact with the student body, and 98.5% of them couldn't give any less of a frick about fans/alumni.

Without traditions and rivalries, and with unlimited free agency, college football is nothing more than a shittier, watered down version of the NFL.
