Greedy mfs turned the championship in to a t.v show. You will start to see some fukkery as the playoffs go. You need the big names and flashy shyt. Not that old "touchdown Jesus Notre Dame shyt". Think about what happens if Colorado and Deion had made it all the way through. You get the polarizing type shyt where half the ppl wanna see his team win and the other half wanna see him lose, but they will still tune in. Like a Floyd fight.

Folks ain't hyped on college football two weeks past New Year's Day. There was no hype on the game whatsoever.

but college football is Murica :smugfavre:


The only thing you can surmise from this is that whatever fanbase Notre Dame still had in NYC is dead now. If the numbers are low nationally then it musta really been low locally here.

It was an 8 seed vs a 7 seed.
I don't have the time or the interest to comb through wikipedia to bear this out, but out of
MLB
NBA
NFL
NHL
NCAAM
and NCAAF
I would be interested to know if that is the highest combined seeding number (15) for a game played in the round of 4 or later, all time?
If it's not, it's gotta be top 3.

Simply put: their entire seeding and bracketing procedure is fukked if you have 7 v 8 in the final round.
Reseeding it would fix SOME of the problem, but the fact that the round of 4 was 8v5 and 7v6 means that every team that got a bye lost. Reseeding isn't fixing that, the entire seeding process itself needs revamping. You're not putting the best 4 teams in America out there to wittle themselves down to a champtionship game. Or if you ARE putting the best 4 teams out there, you're not assigning seeds correctly, because for 100 years college football has been "the 1st ranked team is champ".

Now you're trying to tell me the 8th ranked team is the champ?

I didn't even see the highlights.

Part of me thinks this is just a necessary step/move by the SEC & Big 10 to break free and leave the NCAA in their dust, but who knows.

The "seeds" were messed up due to conference champions needing to have top 4 seeds.



3rd Seed Boise State? 9th in the CFP Rankings, 8th in AP
4th Seed Arizona St? 12th CFP, 10th AP


7th Seed ND? 5th CFP, 3rd AP
8th Seed OSU? 6th in both


And the Champion is automatically the #1 team, just like when the CFP was 4 teams.

It's not the brands or game....it's timing.

Playing the Natty on January 20th is dumb. You got MLK Day hoops. Plus, most people have mentally moved on from CFB by the end of the first week in January.

They gotta start the season a little earlier and make it so the Natty takes place between Jan 1 and maybe Jan 7th. Once you get past that, it's all about NFL playoffs and people checking on on college and NBA hoops.

I am begging you guys to please shut the fukk up about ratings. It’s the dumbest topic of discussion about any sport and it doesn’t mean anything.
