If some sort of common monetary rules are not

created and enforced across college football, look for the SEC to break away from the NCAA and form a new playoff. Could be the ACC or some ACC teams join in. Makes no sense to compete with unlimited Billionaire money, with no rules or limits. It may take a few more years, but it's all about buying the best team, and at some point, it makes no since. Even the NFL has limits that levels the playing field, making it the most watched sports. College football is still popular because fans still associate the school with the team, how long will that last, especially when they start losing. JMHO

Wouldn’t that make players leave the sec for schools that have no limit?

It is now schools that want to spend money versus schools that don’t

If I ever win the big $1B plus Powerball I’m going to spend as much as it takes to build a UGA super team of the best 2 deep seniors and super seniors across the country just to make a point and force change.

Wow, a whole billion? That's cute.

It's going to take a lot more than that to change this from the current trajectory. Arguably, this year's playoffs were a step in the right direction: so far, other than Ole Miss-UGA and Ole Miss-Miami, all of the games have been really lopsided. The NCAA can't have it's premier games be boring for very long, especially when they overlap with the NFL playoff race and wild card round.

If they try to outbid me it will just prove my point. You figure $5M average per player…two deep and rounding out to around 50 players would be $250M?
On second thought…screw that….I can find a better use for that money.

Buy out every single available ticket to the Championship game and then don't go. They'd have fun trying to hide all the empty seats.

The NCAA wholly organizes and operates March Madness.
If the SEC breaks away from the NCAA, they'd kick the SEC out of March Madness, and there are too many SEC schools that care about basketball now other than Kentucky. Florida fans and Auburn fans really really wouldn't be happy.

My Powerball daydream is to turn the high school football team around here into an runaway swinging dick powerhouse. That would be way cheaper and more feasible.

The fact about it is it’s only negatively affecting schools who had good programs before NIL. We are now in the minority and it’s not going away. ESPNs market is growing by having Indiana ole miss Texas tech and more in the playoff. More people are tuning in all over the country bc their schools are in the playoffs. That’s why. They’re going to keep expanding it til we get to 24 teams.
