The playoffs are looking like a NFL season. Which is a long season for college players. Coaches will have to take on NFL tendencies like rotating players often and keeping them fresh and healthy for a long season. FBS will not copy FCS playoff schedule which is a 24 team playoff but their championship game is Jan. 6th! Best thing would be get rid of conference championships and start the playoff the first or second Saturday of December. Or what would equal at least a week off for teams.
Also, needs to be some what of a same number of games played in all conferences. If SEC doesn't want to go to 9 games then just have everyone play 8 games. In the end, college football is becoming more and more like a mini NFL rather we like it or not.

NIL and Transfer Portal has hurt teams. Players don't stay, so teams have depth issues and now you have billionaires paying millions to high school recruits to go to their favorite school to play. It doesn't mean the recruit will work out or stay and they could get hurt.

I heard someone suggest Army Navy game move to Week O. Which I think would be good. All the teams that had a bye lost. So a bye didn't help them this year. It be interesting to see if the committee changes anything.

CFP Changes

What would you change about the CFP to make it better for next year?
It will still be 12 team playoff.
Oregon and Georgia being #1 & 2 got the worst path to the semi finals where Texas and Penn St. the teams they beat got the easiest path to the semi finals. I'm surprised Penn St. game isn't at night and a white out. Can't believe the playoffs are already here. This year of college football went by too fast. If someone would had told me that Indiana and Arizona St. would be in the playoffs and one of them a Conference Champion , I would have thought they were crazy! Hopefully, the committee changes the playoff seeding for the better next year.
The way it is seeded now. Oregon and Georgia are getting penalized for winning their conference championship games. Where the losers Texas and Penn St. have the easiest path to the semifinals! How fair is that? It be interesting if the committee changes things next year.
I can see Kiffin. Who ever takes over is going to have a lot pressure to win and the legacy of Nick Saban to live up to. Also, if a head coach from a Power 5 becomes Bama head coach then not only do you have Bama players in the transfer portal but that other Power 5 school players in the portal too. I think if Florida State coach became Bama's coach then I see Deion Sanders becoming Florida State head coach. It definitely going to be an interesting off season.
I never would have dreamed that Saban's last loss would be against the Cheaters and Harbaugh!
1998 when he was at Michigan State and beat undefeated Ohio State. That loss cost the Buckeyes the National Championship vs Tennessee. Not a loss but a fun fact. In 1980, Pete Carroll the secondary coach at Ohio state left and was replaced by Nick Saban. Rather you like Nick or not, he was one of the greatest coaches in college football!
I think this was the committee way of sending a message to The Cheaters(Michigan)! Best of luck trying to beat Saban and Bama! It's too bad for Florida State but I am loving this! The Cheaters ain't getting to the Natty this year!!! :nana:
Yahoo Sports sources say Conner Stalions bought tickets to Tennessee, Alabama, & Georgia games too. Besides Big Ten games.
Before this season started it was said that Michigan not only had a Beat Ohio State practice, but they had a new Beat Georgia practice too. It wouldn't surprise me if they had tickets to Georgia games this year. Thinking Georgia would be the one the play in a Natty.
Hail to the Cheaters!

This is what I love about March Madness! I'm not a big basketball fan. It is the Best tournament in sports. Especially for the little guy! Would a San Diego St. football team beat Alabama? Hell No! It will be fun to see who ends up in the Final Four now! Bama had a good run. It looks like none of the #1 teams are going to make it to the Final Four unless Houston comes back to beat Miami!
Classy move!
At the end of the day no matter what team and conference you cheer for. 2 lives were tragically lost and that's bigger than football!
Thoughts and prayers to the families and U of Georgia!

Refs helped Georgia win ! No targeting on Marv and overturning a 4th down stop!

Happy New Year!

It's New Year's Eve! What changes would You make in 2023 for College Football? Doesn't matter if answer is crazy or realistic. I would have the transfer portal during April-June only.
Happy New Year Everyone! Have a great weekend and enjoy college football games!
5 missed tackles/assignments = 5 big TD plays! The last time Michigan won at Columbus was in 2000. It was bound to happen sooner rather then later.
I think you have that with some fans that talk smack about their team. There's always some that look like idiots. It's hard to say what Ohio State team will show up to play against Georgia. It all depends on if Day/Knowles is willing to adjust in game. If not then it maybe a long night for Ohio State. Here it is the last day of the year! College football is today and the season is just about done! That went by way too fast! Happy New Year Everyone! Have a great weekend!

re: Ohio State will probably beat us

Ohio State lost to their rival Michigan at home for the first time in 22 years! That was bound to happen sooner or later. 5 missed tackles = 5 TD big plays by Michigan. Can Ohio State beat Georgia ? Yes, but they have to play mostly mistake free football. Day has to Not be Stubborn and play call the same plays that don't work and being willing to adjust! I think it will be a close game. I also think that Georgia has the tougher opponent to beat than Michigan. If Georgia wins than I see another Natty for Georgia . Michigan vs TCU game will be interesting to watch because Everyone is just assuming that Michigan will win! I can see TCU winning ! Both games will be fun to watch.
Ohio State only had 1 loss. It's funny how everyone talks SOS. When SEC teams play FCS schools the second to last game of the regular season. Is it because Austin P. Is such a powerhouse? ??????
