No. And I don’t think they are ready for the number of losses teams will have either. When every week is a battle how will they feel about a 7-5 record when they are used to 10-2?

I think they actually dislike it. They are squeezing what they can and blowing the bubble til it goes boom

For now, most of us will, but it won't surprise me when that begins to change. The college football we all know and love is coming to an end.

You know, as crazy as that may sound on the surface, based on the decisions they're making and their corresponding actions, I can totally believe it.

No, we do not. This is a money grab for espn and others, while they destroy college football for us.

Fan opinion is irrelevant.

It baffles me that people still don't understand this.

Expansion to super conferences (2 or 4) became our reality as soon as the playoffs became a thing.

NIL was going to happen as soon as social media made these “student athletes” more than just a jersey number

These are self inflicted concepts that fundamentally changed the game. They are textbook examples of the law of unintended consequences due to well intended but short sighted actions.
