as things continue to evolve in college football..…I think you will see schools that pay big money through the collective start ensuring the deals include playing out full seasons/postseason play. it’s pay to play. It’s basically pro ball at the big schools. No way they let kids cash big checks and then let them sit going forward without penalty. You can’t do that in pay sports. Think college football is far from done fixing this monster they created.

Think they had an opportunity to have Colorado actually play a variant of a BIG12 title game and took it. They never played anyone at the top of that conference this year so it was sort of weird. You never got a real look at how they even stacked up in conference.

Well, you do make a point there lol

Miami HC addressing how they came to Cam Ward not playing in the 2nd half….”I’ll prefer not to answer that question as it relates to that”….. so let’s at least put to bed that the coaches just had to see what their backup QB had in him in the midst of a shootout. Because that’s an easy answer for a coach. But he couldn’t say it. Cam got his and took himself out.

I mean you are pretending not to watch because your team is being exposed and can’t even beat decent BIG12 teams. It’s all flash. Little substance. Which is what you have been told about for 2 years now. Clemson won the ACC. Went to the CFP. And is in position with a some slight coaching changes on D… to actually compete next year for a real run. That’s the notes.

your team didn’t have opt outs.

your cope continues to be hilarious…Sanders isn’t tanking lol. Colorado is just being exposed as everyone knows they would be when they play good teams. And not even good teams, just BIG12 good.

Yeah, every Bowl game is different. Some actually play. Some don’t. For example, Colorado and BYU both committed to actually playing in their games. Colorado pridefully making it known they were going full squad and not taking the game off against their first good BIG12 team they will face all season.

Syracuse is our champion

The lazy Colorado can’t run the football narrative from Booger at the half. They could…they just don’t. They ran 5 random times for almost 4 a pop. Sanders took a 30 yard loss that wiped out the little running they did. They don’t want to run the ball in Colorado. It’s a choice they make in how they run their O.

I feel like every game I watch he should have taken 5 more sacks than he did….and it be all on him.

I mean, Dabo has a pretty good track record with QBs. He couldn’t get mid level ACC caliber play from DJU….and was super loyal about trying to find anyway to get it. 2 full seasons trying. Then 2 more teams tried. 3 years in the ACC and was pretty much the worst the ACC has seen in some time. I’d rather have the Gamecocks 5th string QB than stomach through watching him ever again

DJU shouldn’t be drafted. He likely will late but there is a mile long list of better QBs who won’t even be drafted. But he has those “tools”

Yeah. They got too caught up in their kitchen sink approach. Forgot they can just play football after that great setup

BYU playing like they in the natty. Kitchen sink being thrown at Colorado right now

One thing that stinks about the size of conferences…Colorado played none of the top teams in the BIG12 this season. Same for the ACC. Clemson, Miami, SMU never saw each other.

2 drives in a row that finish with Travis Hunter going at Sheuder unhappy.

Don’t disagree it likely helps his stock. I just don’t like business decision football. Play or don’t play. I don’t care for half in to get yours football. That’s just me. And I also just dislike these Bowl games for reasons just like that. Cancel all these bowl games then. Add Miami to list of why. Already a billion reasons why they shouldn’t be played. It’s money over football should be.

BYU QB just missed a 70 yarder to house lol.

He wanted that record. That’s why he played. Everyone knows that. He got it. Then he sat. That’s called an agreement. if they wanted a good look at Williams…you just play him the full game and give him the reps. Not insert a cold QB into an absurd shootout late. I get it. Like I said, I prefer the old approach. Which basically applied in HS and will again in the NFL. I think a bunch of these college bounce around kids are red flags waiting to happen. Again, not wanting that convo to be just about Cam. It’s bigger than Cam. I still think it’s whack sitting him midway in a shootout.

He played just to get his today. Then sat. That ain’t being that dude IMO. Team had 20 pass yards in the second half. That’s hanging the rest that helped him get his out to dry. Just not my preference. Just don’t play then. I hate on Colorado a lot. If those dudes actually finish the season as it sounds they will….I’ll give them props

Season felt like it was just Ward and Restrepo playing catch as Miami gave up 2 billion points no matter the opponent

I think this era is going to produce business decision makers the likes we haven’t seen….and that means that will carry forward to the NFL. I like my players like Cam Newton….trying to suit up after breaking his back the same week. I didn’t want him to play then….but I liked they had to fight him not to play. Dudes like Cam can carry and motivate a team beyond what they do on the field. No NFL guys running through a brick wall for a lot of these new era guys IMO

I think Cam and Sanders are going to have to sit and reprogram themselves. Both have just gotten way too use of holding the ball and thinking they are good athletes behind the LOS. That might work in the BIG12 and ACC but it’s the recipe to get murdered in the NFL. Both got the talent. But talent ain’t enough. see Caleb Williams.

Cool. Go for the record. That requires playing in the game. He got teammates looking to make themselves look better for next year too. They helped him get his. I just don’t like the mentality. NFL might should start paying more attention to how these QBs are mentally wired IMO. Think that’s going to be a bigger and bigger thing going forward in this era. College era of team jumping for checks and guarantees. I’m not trying to make it just about Cam. Just my general thoughts well beyond him,
