I doubt most college football players care about seasons, but I feel you.

When i lived in southern California for 2 years, not having seasonal weather changes really made me miss fall and winter and it was wearing me out.

They have a great market. If the big10 was smart they would schedule better.
there aren't enough teams that move the needle in terms of fan interest nationwide...the SEC has built a brand that is much more interesting to watch.

The stadiums, the colors, the pagaentry, the drama off the field...

There aren’t enough schools who give a shite about football. Northern schools have ice hockey, field hockey, women’s volleyball, water polo, gymnastics and others that garner their attention, so the money and fan interests are moved throughout other sports.

Yeah that Georgia Texas game of 35-10 and the Vandy bludgeoning of Kentucky were real nail biters


Yeah nothing gets me going like a 10-3 Northwestern-Purdue game, except maybe 13-10 Minnesota-Rutgers special!

Beat OSU if you want to shut them up. I think they’ll lose in the playoffs this year but until then, they are on top of CFB

Ain't no way we lose in the playoffs. This year's Ohio State team would probably beat most NFL teams.

Absolutely no way Purdue commits to football like most SEC schools.

This… Purdue is one of the best basketball teams but they don’t give a shite about football. They don’t even have an updated football strength and conditioning facility. It’s severely outdated, so when someone talks shite about Purdue’s football team, or Wisconsin, Rutgers, Maryland, etc, you might as well beam old man yelling at clouds. They are there to collect a check and fill out a schedule. That’s it. People can’t force schools to commit to football. I know it sounds crazy, groundbreaking shite lol.
