They’re both terrible products currently and have been for a while now.

The 12 team playoff starting next season should help a ton.

Nah, it will still be the same teams.

What they really need to do is significantly reduce the number of scholarships teams can give so teams like Alabama and Ohio State can't stock up.

The only thing I would change about the college game is getting rid of some of the bowl games. Every .500 school doesn't need to go to a bowl game.

It's so ridiculous. Being bowl eligible used to mean something. Now you have to be completely terrible not to go to a bowl so no one really cares outside of the playoffs. Draft prospects even sit out the NYE6 bowls. There should be maybe 12-15 bowl games tops. Legacy TV contracts are the only thing keeping all these bowls alive. Viewership ratings have to be terrible and most are attended at the level of a HS game.

If you're going to have a billion bowls at least get rid of conference time ins and make them regionally relevant. If you have say UNC and Tennessee playing in Charlotte it's going to be well attended. Have the same game in Phoenix and who's going?

This would help too but the portal is going to take care of some of that. You're not gonna have 4 and 5 star junior and senior third stringers. Those guys are gonna transfer and play somewhere.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
