We were told if they would just start a playoff with 4 teams that would fix everything. now it is 8 teams. Why do you think it will stop there?


It won't, and that's sort of the point. What you're going to find out is that players and fans could not give any less of a shite once they're eliminated from playoff contention. You're going to see players quit left and right once their teams are out.

It sucks, but today's college football player does not care about 7-4 Georgia vs 4-7 Georgia Tech.

The playoffs have nothing to do with opt outs... the culture of making it acceptable for agents to give players advances before the bowls is 100% why we have opt outs.

Do you really think the only fans watching
CFB playoff games are only of those playing?

Alabama vs Georgia NC game had 28 million plus viewers.They were only Bama and UGA fans?

No idea what you're talking about.

Are you talking about the reg season or non playoff bowl games?
