2024 College Football Thread

Looking forward to an offseason of them continuing to ruin college football more and more.

ACC now saying they think they should have a regular season champ.  Park that team to the side.  Let the 2nd and 3rd teams play for the ACC “championship”.  Have 2 champions with the regular season champ protected from actually having to prove to be that. 

Stupid.  Hope that gets shot down.  Bad ideas tend to bleed over.  Other sports. 

reality is SMU didn’t play Clemson, Miami and the top of the ACC in season.  Conferences are too big.    So yeah, you 100% have to play a real title game to be the champion.  Because it exposes you to the actual best teams.

We knew this would happen - that you'd end up with conferences focusing on not weakening their best teams records. Any given Sunday (Saturday) is an even bigger thing in college football. Just look at OSUs losses this year...

They need to go back to the way it was 20 years ago.  The conferences are too big and meaningless now.  Bring back the Big East!

The mega conference thing definitely sucks. I miss the days when you played every conference opponent.

yep.  I mean, basically everyone I wanted to see play each other in the ACC this year.....wasn't on the regular season schedule.   And it's not new.   It's just far worse.  I use to give my SEC chest thumping friends poo because Clemson in the last decade of college football....Clemson saw mighty Bama far more often than SC even thought about it.  I mean, if your brag and defense is you play in the Bama conference but never really play them.  If you are playing a team once every 3 or 4 years......you aren't really in their conference IMO

Ohio State/Notre Dame had the 3rd smallest viewership of the championship games in the CFP era.   Ohio State now actually account 2 of the 3 lowest viewed championship games.  This past game surpasses 21s Ohio State/Bama game.   

Just getting big names doesn’t auto mean big views

    • Interesting topic.  I have had a few NFL friends and one told me that he could not work out or train unless the activities and facilities were approved. AI: In many NFL contracts, certain activities are restricted, and injuries sustained during those activities can lead to the voiding of contract guarantees or even the entire contract. These restrictions often include dangerous activities like skydiving, rock climbing, or even engaging in contact sports like boxing. Additionally, injuries sustained while working out at non-team facilities or during personal recreational activities may be classified as "non-football injuries," potentially impacting the player's compensation.    Having said that, I question the reason the person filming this was not helping.  Secondly, the decision to put it on social media makes it seem a bit prearranged.  I do not think this would violate his contract, but I do think it is a bit stupid on his part in that he could be injured.    
    • Doesn't make it right.  And as you put it, you wanted to ban him from being country, which is essentially policing who he is as a person lol  I get protecting the "asset", but banning people from living their life is crazy. Russell Wilson likes to play helicopter pilot.  I would deem that WAY more dangerous.  Those things scare me.  I still wouldn't want to keep him from doing it if I were his boss.  I would just try not to think about it, haha.
    • Could do better could do worse. I've seen some people very indignant over bringing him back and I can absolutely relate to the sentiment. But it's just in a backup role. He's also a good locker room presence and an effort player so for a 1 year rental in a year where we aren't going to do much it's fine. This is a development year. And there will be options if need be at the trade deadline. Besides at the end of the day we all knew a signing like this was around the corner after how drafting Mark Williams ended. He should have been our franchise center for the next several years. I don’t put that failure on the Hornets.
