To keep it a stack, CFB been a slow dying product for at least 8 or so years, they might as well optimize the emphasis on the playoff and massive brands by making it to where the playoff is bigger (numerically and in terms of coverage)

There's no way, to me, that CFB trends up again with how its currently structured and who currently has power. And this is pretty much the warnings that was associated with the major moves made in the early 2010s :manny:

To keep it a stack, Auburn been trash so I'm depressed about college football:mjcry:

I just tell these young men don’t grow up to be Columbus tech buckeyes
I know it mattered :dwillhuh:

Im saying it wouldn’t have in a 12 team playoff year.

And we see that shyt EVERY year in the NFL where teams rest their starters after clinching playoff spots and stop giving a fukk the rest of the way.

It still matters, them folks in the nfl are different, it’s not a 1 to 1 comparison, this it won’t matter seems to only work in your mind, and basically says that teams that lose won’t care, when they do, (realistically most 19 yo care about this to a point then they just enjoy the fringe benefits) but the coaches care so they will make the kids care, guy on his couch “ oh man this was a good game but won’t count” as They watch the game and matters with seeding and can put rivals out based on wins too

The viewing numbers would say otherwise the issue is no regionality and little parity

How many times the past few years have we seen top 5 upsets in College Basketball and everybody collectively goes :unimpressed:


Why would it be different in CFB now with less stakes for most of the top teams that know they’re in regardless?

It’s because the avg nikka couldn’t tell you who plays for their school, one and done has killed cbb because we aren’t invested in these kids

You still have 3 years to know a kid so it matters

Caleb came back and it’s year three in Lincoln’s system so you should be hyped

Thats BS. The upsets in CFB matter because of the stakes.

All you gotta do is look back at the 07 season. Nobody knew who the fukk played for App State, Rutgers, South Florida, Kansas, Etc.

Im not even sure what that last part has to do with anything :/
