CFB vs NFL

Has college surpassed the NFL as the premier league? Outside of jersey sales and Beer sales, CFB profits way more money. Stadiums are larger and most coaches make more money. Now with NIL players are being paid a lot of money and I expect that it will only increase. It’s almost as if college is the NFL.
I live in Tampa and am a season ticket holder for the Bucs. I attended games when Brady was here and when they won the Super Bowl. I’m also an Alabama Alum and have gone to every NC game since 1992. The games aren’t as exciting to attend at all even the Super Bowl. The fans, the tailgating, everything college has to offer is on a larger scale. The stadiums are bigger and most of the talent you see is created in College. Guys like Joe Burrow and Derek Henry are the same players they were at there respective schools.
Someone told me one time that 90% of all NFL fans didn’t go to college, and if they did it wasn’t to a large predominant CFB team so that’s where they get their support.
I foresee NFL losing steam and trying to find ways to keep people watching on Sundays. Maybe that’s why they’re talking about starting an international league if the NFL and have been playing overseas so much.

This is why colleges are trying so hard to keep their minor league football system under their control. For the control and money.

The NFL has a lot more of a stable structure RN and has way better ratings than CFB. Outside of the southeast NFL destroys CFB without much competition and even in the southeast it's a fierce competition.
While college sports seems strongish now there feels like a bubble that could pop at any second that destroys everything.
CFB has been on a collision course to trade money in for traditions for many years and you have to wonder just how far this goes before people decide to focus on just the NFL instead.

There are random Sunday night pro games that get more viewers than some CFP championship games.

If you believe that, then you believe that Biden won the state of Georgia legitimately. We are so blinded by statistics people throw out just to create a buzz. Prove what you said, that a random game during the week had more viewers than an Alabama Michigan Rosebowl.
Maybe a Georgia TCU blowout, yes. But that’s rare.

No. NFL is the premiere league. CFB is more entertaining imo but lacks structure big time.

What's the percentage of college fans that actually went to college?

How can I prove anything to you if you believe in some conspiracy theory that Nielsen has has an agenda to hold college football down and Nielsen secretly persecutes college football?
You want me to take a head count from people I know? Ask my neighbors what they watch? Start an online poll or some shite?

It was to me until the surge of the portal and NIL.
