College American Football

No arguments here, Chris. There are so many hypocrisies in college football (and collegiate athletics, in general), that it's difficult to know where to start complaining.
I truly hope programs cut one non-conference game to make room for an additional playoff round, but I doubt it will ever happen. Major programs make so much money for the school on home games. I think a more realistic possibility is starting the season a week earlier. Again, this isn't better for the athletes, but it doesn't interfere with the school's revenue, so I think it could happen.
Regardless, I think we can agree that this 4 team is a step in the right direction. It wasn't that long ago when the best team in the country was decided by a flawed voting system.
Also, my cousin went to CSLSATCB. Go Service Dogs!

Reviving this thread to post about the Mizzou vs. kansas “Border War” rivalry. They’ve been playing this game since 1891 but haven’t played since 2011 in football (when Mizzou left the Big 12 for the SEC) I think it’s one of the best college rivalries in college football and I’m beyond happy to see it back. Hoping for a great game and a Tiger win! MIZ
Any college football fans around here?

@SKT hell yeah let’s go. We have the dreaded Louisiana Monroe today who also took out Saban in 2007. Wasn’t a great start for the SEC last weekend but LSU salvaged it for the league.
-
@ZackB yeah I think LSU should scare some folks. They stole our defensive coordinator a couple years ago and I think he’s turning their D around. I’m hoping for 8 wins this year. Hard to believe we’ve had two 10 win seasons in a row which is nuts for us (not so much for Alabama).
-
@SKT I’m hoping for 10 this year but I really have no idea what this team is after that first game. Ohio state looks really good again unfortunately.

@SKT thanks Sean!

@Denimhead-0 hope yall keep winning man. Florida state was my team when I was a kid. Charlie ward and Warrick Dunn were my guys.

@ZackB Thanks Zack! My oldest son is a Senior there. I’m paying enough, so I gotta root for em.
-
@Denimhead-0 haha in that case I hope the hat came with paying tuition

@SKT great win yesterday for you guys. Florida state didn’t have any let down either and Alabama looked like we figured it out against ULM at least
