Cole Adams I have a problem for paying college players as this will unintentionally hurt Army, Navy and Air-forces football programs due to rules that the schools have. This is after it being difficult to recruit to these schools in the first place just my two cents feel free to disagree. Thanks for reading this comment
Man I'm an OU fan, how do you think I feel? Ain't easy making the playoff, only to get blown out in the first round, like why do we even get in if this is how it ends all the time?
@@OnceTwiceCellophane it's not a stretch. Two of them wanted to go to Tennessee. Trevor has family there, Tee is from there. LSU recruited ETN way too late . I don't know Amari's story but all three of them were not clemson from the jump
Well they had the option to go to a team that has done fuck all in the past five years, or go to a team that just won a national championship. Pretty easy choice.
8Bitbanana peel especially the point of college football.. is for the students and alumni. It’s not for everyone else. Pro can never compare to that. Other than buffalos love for the Bills and arguably the South’s love for the Saints.
Tracking The Market I mean I like UGA and Ohio State cuz my dad went there and I grew up watching them. I’m vibing with OU (but don’t really like em) because my grandpa played there before going pro🤷♂️
I lived in Tulsa that year. It was awesome coming back from Christmas vacation after all the insufferable OU fans said VT would smoke KU. The fact the Sooners were destroyed by the Mountaineers in the Fiesta Bowl was icing on the cake!
Bruh I go to The university of New Mexico... it gets worse. In fact I think the 3 teams that run along the rio grande river (UNM, NMSU, UTEP) only won 3 or 4 games last year combined.
Thanks for mentioning Minnesota. I became a Student there this year and had one of the best college sports years anyone can wish for. I’ve always been an NFC north guy, but having a story as the gophers has really changed the mindset of the state.
Much like Baylor and Utah they're just one quarterback away from being legitimate contenders. Find somebody that doesn't suck and these programs will be going places.
@@charltonwake6813 If he's the quarterback of the Minnesota Gophers then yes, he does suck. Every time I watched them play, even during the big upset, the entire passing offense seemed to revolve around him throwing the ball as far as he could and some poor receiver being forced to make a 50/50 catch. He's lucky his receivers are good at doing so. To be fair though crappy quarterback seems to be the problem for every not quite playoffs team. Baylor, Penn, Utah, Minnesota. All just one qb away.
@@bolbyballinger I dont think you know what you're talking about if you say he sucks. "50/50 catches" so you didnt watch any gopher football this year.
Enjoy it man. My dad had season tickets at Furman and Clemson since I was born and we went to one of the two games every Saturday. He passed away in 2017 and I go sit in his seat now. Make sure to hug your dad and let him know you love him. A relationship like that is special.
@@roundgreenpotatohunter58398 sorry man. I wasn't trying to be a downer. I just think it's important as hell to appreciate those kind of moments because they are the stuff you really hold onto.
I have always loved the ncaa sometimes even more than the nfl. As a kid I could never sleep in on Saturday’s so I would watch spongebob super early and then flip the channel to college game day, the greatest sports show of all time. The excitement and fun that comes with the sport was contagious and that is what football is about.
I don’t understand how people love college football but won’t watch minor league baseball or g-league/wnba basketball. It’s just bush league. Who cares
@@billymanziel5666 that’s not true at all. College football is the highest level of play some of these guys can play at for their age. Not to mention the school spirit and crazy crowds, fans, and atmosphere. You can’t find that in literally any other sport.
If they made the playoff 8 teams, that would help recruiting because players have more options to compete for a title, and it would let more teams to compete for a title. That fixes everything!!!!
This year proved that wouldn’t have fixed anything. My LSU was head and shoulders above number 4 (and everyone but I won’t get into that), and there were only 3 teams that had a legit shot. Why expand to add other teams that will just get kneecapped and sacrificed?
@@grantd8575 well you expand the playoffs and you will have more top talent head to other schools. Joe Burrow got to play with NFL talent in the following years because LSU is one of the bigger names that doesn't usually make it. But compare the talent at LSU to the talent at Oklahoma or Oregon and its completely different. You expand the playoffs to at least 8 and you will see a more talent head outside of the four that are always in the playoffs in the past decade.
@@themanofconstantsorrowelia1929 it really won't change recruiting all that much outside of a couple kids here and there tho, all those kids will think is "why would I go to a team that makes it to the playoffs and gets blown out every year when I can go to a team that makes it and wins every year."
Hey Cole Adams, you said that you were looking to research the topic of college hockey and its recent rapid rise of the talent pool and sending more players to the NHL. As well as more big time teams looking at the possibility of adding teams. For example, at the #ACHA level (Non NCAA Hockey). We had a recent crowd at the Winter Classic in Dallas,, we had the Univ. Of Texas & Texas A&M Club Teams at the ACHA Division 2 Level recently draw a little over 5,000 fans. This could make a statement for college hockey growth in Texas. Another big reason for this is the growing number of strong international players playing in the NCAA. For example, at the recent World Junior Hockey Championship, we had NCAA Players playing for 🇫🇮, 🇨🇦 and 🇨🇭. 🇸🇪 and 🇸🇰 also had committed players to NCAA Teams in the tournament. Other countries like 🇫🇷 have had current players and/or commitments also play in the WJC Qualifiers.
I love how being a Penn State student gives you optimism each fall semester that THIS YEAR will be our year... Before we inevitably lose to OSU or Michigan plus another road Big 10 game thanks to a coaching blunder by James Franklin
CFB has so much passion. I enjoy watching CFB more than any other sport for that reason. Watching these young guys come together to make a great team is wonderful.
agree so much. I go to the most passionate game played. Army Navy. Also been to three Sugar Bowls, two Cotton , a peach(Army Illinois)one Orange,one Fiesta,(Penn State Miami.)These do not compare to Army Navy. Love the college game like me, you have GOT to see at least one Army Navy game. Passion like I can not describe. Go Army,Beat Navy!
Nicholas Vandergeest Any idea how many of those years they finished top 10? They’ve always been a QB and a better offensive scheme away from smothering bama’s legacy.
College football is 100% better than NFL. Waking up on that Saturday morning and watching college game day there is nothing better it truly holds a special place in my heart
Even Gameday is so much worse than it used to be. I had a clip from Gameday from 2005 come through my recommended videos a couple of months ago. It was amazing. They actually talked about football. I learned who some of the players were that were not Heisman candidates. They talked about different defensive schemes. You might actually learn some football.
Ocean Thresher yes I agree most teams don’t have a chance but u have to think abt this most teams don’t care for the national championship they care about the old rivalry’s that’s what means more the bragging rights and the tradition the talegating it’s just all magical and u don’t see that kind of passion in the NFL and u know it to
Hi’PO Clan because in the NFL, the bragging rights are Super Bowls won, not regular season games won against a rival. The Dolphins might have given the Patriots problems in the regular season, but the Pats just need to show all their banners to silence them.
The main problem with CFB is that you have 5 power conferences that dont play the same schedules and you just have to use subjective measures to determine the best teams.
It is the same teams every year it’s so top heavy. I’ve always liked the NFL because at the end of the day it’s more fair because everyone’s a pro and it feels like everyone has a chance
I love college football and all of it's tradition. You make great points. But it was like this 80's, 90's and early 2000's when Miami Nebraska Norte Dame USC were dominated football. To have these schools dominate again u need great coaching. With great coaching u get the great players. Then u dominate. Everything comes in circles.
But thats not fun to watch, before the patriots era rose the NFL was fun to watch because every year you could loose your throne. At least I see it that way!
Tiago Gonçalves The last had far more champions, but there wasn’t a system in place to create unanimous champions unless you were undisputedly dominant.
I miss the era where Miami Florida State Florida Texas Tennessee Georgia Oklahoma USC LSU Ohio State Michigan Virginia Tech Auburn Nebraska and Penn State were always good those were the top 15 schools from 93 to 07 Clemson was just ok and nobody cared about Alabama they was stuck in the middle with Arkansas and South Carolina and you get a surprise run from UCLA Cal Texas Tech Louisville Cincinnati South Florida etc
I'm always gonna prefer the NFL because I want to see the best of the best play, and more open competition. Like you mentioned, in college football its a small handful of schools that dominate every single year. That's boring. And I honestly don't give a shit about the traditions or rivalries either. Just my 2 cents.
Even tho I think college football is better, I won’t argue with anyone on that point. The NFL definitely has more parity and that’s what holding cfb back
"About to fall off" vs Top 5 in recruiting every year since what, 2008? Pick one. Bama is literally 5 years (66-6 since 2015, which was the 7th year of the dynasty) beyond when traditional dynasties collapse.
Agent Tizzle Texas had a down year this year but they were still a solid team and were good the prior 2 years. They have a lot of returning talent so they should be a top 10 team next year
Penn State wins Big 10, goes undefeated, beats Texas (U.S.C. Clemson P.S.U.,Texas all unbeaten) in semi's and U.S.C. in Championship. Hope big game is in Rose Bowl this year.
If the Big 10 has fall sports, Michigan N.J.Pa. Minn.Ill. still shut down, Penn State will win every game, beat Badgers and make final 4.They are the most complete team in nation, ass is U.S.C. Complete Team's COMPLETE!!
I am a die hard ND fan. College football was great when I was a young kid and teen in the late 80s through the 90s with Lou Holtz at the helm. They should have won in 93 but lost to BC. That was one hell of a game that might not happen again since BC's program is going nowhere fast.
@@simulatedsportsassocation2556 that's why it's done on the down low, it's been going on for years, clemson is bad about this, just look up clemson paying players lol
Honestly i think players profiting from their likeness will actually improve parity. If you're a top 20 recruit, would you rather go to Alabama and be just another guy in the uniform, or go to a team like TA&M, Houston, U or another smaller program and be the #1 superstar face of the team getting undivided media attention? It'll pull those top guys away from the top teams because they'll want to be able to profit more.
This is why I like the NFL way more. "Any given sunday" really applies in the NFL. Who would have thought the Tennessee Titans would be in the AFC championship? Who would have thought the 49ers were going to be so dominant?
Thanks for bringing up the point about the whole long layoff between games! I've always made that argument and that honestly the reason I call out Bana for always scheduling there out of conference opponent the first game of the season which gives them 9 months to prepare.
I remember an ad during the first cfp championship that had people in shirts for teams ranked 5-10 saying “we’ll get it next year” and tcu was one and I think back to that often. Also sorry I am a Buckeyes fan
Or we just get rid of conferences entirely and stop letting teams make their own schedules. Doing so would allow us to seed teams by their record and only use strength of schedule as a tiebreaker.
Liam Carruthers yeah last two teams picked. Some of these teams deserve it more than some other blue collar school that played low-level opponents. There shouldn’t only be TWO pac-12 teams that make in existence of the committee
College football is cyclical. 20 years ago Miami, Nebraska, and USC were incredible and seemed like they would be good forever. Alabama and Clemson will come back to earth eventually and new teams will rise and take over for 5-10 years. This is always how it has been and will continue to be forever
The problem there is that it makes it impossible for new fans to feel welcome. Trying to figure out who your team is? Well fuck you! If college football keeps having this attitude they'll find that they can't draw in new fans. Also why the fuck would any intelligent being be passionate about the teams? They do nothing but fuck over their players at every opportunity. I'll have favorite players, but teams? Fuck them.
If you don't like CFP, you can always go watch FCS playoffs. There's a REASON that FBS doesn't do a massive bracket system like that. They don't want to set it up so top talent are playing a bunch of extra very competitive games every year. That would only create tons of problems, not the least of which is increasing risk of injury.
@@biggiecheese2376 New England is an expectation. No other team in NFL history has been as dominant for as long as they have. All the teams left in the playoffs haven't been to the Super Bowl in years. NFL isn't as predictable as college football.
Expanding to 6 or 8 teams needs to happen in the near future. The only problem with this is that I don't think it will happen anytime soon because of so many old heads that run the sport that are stuck in their own ways.
Clemson has been a breath of fresh air because they are not a "traditional powerhouse". Or maybe that's just me being a Clemson fan since the Tommy Bowden era.
Great video man! You and I are on the same train with a lot of things. Unfortunately I just think it’s gonna get worse and worse as the years go on. But I still love college football and all the memories I’ve made watching it. Go Bucks!
I’m from Australia I literally wake up at 4am to watch it although I don’t agree with some of the things that happens or the way it’s run I will always watch. Go Bucks
I completely agree, college football is so uncompetitive to the point there’s no reason to watch when you have some unknown school being shit on by alabama
As a Kentucky football fan, I appreciate the one second of a halftime show you included in there. This is more love then we will ever get from the selection committee under the current system.
To be fair, MBB doesn’t have the talent disparity that CFB does and even then, how are we gonna have a bigger playoff window without rising concerns on player safety?
- winning a championship works more like american idol than actual football league - don't care about seeing two teams duke it out in the papajohns bowl to see who's the 20th best team and who's 21st - 90% of teams are irrelevant as they have absolutely no chance of ever winning the title - no unique brands to get behind. a million teams called eagles, bulldogs, or tigers, usually with a letter as their logo - the best teams are obviously cheating to get top recruits - i didn't go to a university, so no team means anything to me - stars will only be on the team for at most, 4 years just my opinion. could never get into it.
When it comes to the games themselves. 2 of my favorite football games of all-time were Boise State upsetting Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl, and Texas beating USC with Reggie Bush and Vince Young at the height of their hype.
Been a tough decade for an Oregon fan? Lol you sound ignorant. Most conference titles than any other Pac12 school, 3 Rose Bowl victories, and 2 national title appearances. Had a 2 year hiatus from being elite with crap coaching and have a 9-1 record vs Oregon State and a 8-2 record vs Washington. And that’s with no great recruiting classes until 2018. Like I said before, you sound ignorant.
My Washington Huskies were a top ten team for 3+ years and we never won a single new year six bowl. Then we lost against Oregon and Utah by one td. And we lost to Oregon because of a missed field goal. Don’t get me started about auburn. Also why do we get more hate for being in the playoffs then Ohio State. THEY GOT BLOWN OUT AND WE HAD MAJOR INJURIES!
Another reason I can’t get into watching college football is because every week 90% of the games every week are blowouts. And out that last 10% you’ll be lucky if one of those games is going to include a game with a team looking to contend for a title. Which as he stated is basically Clemson, Alabama, Ohio State, and a couple others.
Granted Im' European, maybe I don't know that much about your kind of football. However I enjoy collage football much more than the NFL, for me it is just much more entertaining as a viewer. I think a factor is the skill level of the players. They aren't as skilled the NFL players but they are still good enough to play entertaining and exciting football. They make huge plays, bust a defensive coverage that allows a 60 yard TD pass and stuff like that, it ain't the best quality, but it's entertaining as hell. The season opener between Florida and Miami is the perfect example of this, terrible football, entertaining as fuck to watch. The thing I find the most stupid in general are they players. Take for instance a 5 star QB, most likely he is going to commit to Bama, Clemson, OSU or one of the biggest schools, which all still have maybe 3 other 5 star QB's on the roster. I get it that they wanna play for the best teams and say they "aren't afraid of competition", but in reality, why not just go to a team like Baylor, Minnesota, UFC or one of those teams? They are still really good and guaranteed not to have as talented QB's, why not go where you can be the number 1 guy from day 1? Players need to swallow their pride and go where they will play, as a young player in any sport, you won't get better if you don't play. Look at Burrow, didn't play at OSU, went to LSU. Had one year as a full starter to become better, and look at him now.
This is how you make everyone happy: 8 playoff teams, all 5 power 5 champions get in so every power 5 conference is represented, then the highest ranked group of 5 gets in so they are represented, the other 2 spots are wild cards that the committee chooses so you can still get in without a conference championship. Then out of the pool of 8 the committee will rank them how they see fit and play the tournament.
I still love college football. I like the reasons you listed. I use to watch everything for years. Then SEC got loud and with the media altering recruiting as well by hyping up one conference and alignment happening with Missouri and A&M going to the SEC opened up the gates gravitate more recruits Southeast. I'm probably just older and miss the way things use to be and conferences were more regional, most the kids stayed in their region and got to see more mid west, west coast, north east, and southeast kids compete against each other in bowls and national championships, I wish the old conference set up was still intact for the playoff era. And I love the 6 team playoff with the byes.
@@rjante2236 it would destroy those sports , excellence drives basketball, baseball will always suck regardless but this why soccer is the best sport its parity is real and not manufactured, no salary caps but u still get upsets here and there
@@joshuaprince6580 Honestly I just find basketball boring as hell, what with the lack of parity. I mean, we got the same damn teams in the finals 4 years in a row. At least this year it looks a little different.
Expanding the playoffs isn’t about “This team should be in because we think they will win” it’s about “These extra teams should be in because they deserve a CHANCE to win. They won the same amount of games and won their conference. Why leave who should get in so much up to human opinion?”
Which is always the case, they don't even have a point. Power 5 teams only have to win their games. Teams like Iowa, Iowa State, even Rutgers or Vanderbilt would 100% make the playoffs if they win their games.
If youre making it to the national championship that means youre not loosing very often, if any at all. We all hate loosing, its not enjoyable, especially to rivals. So yeah, its about winning for me.
As a bama fan I agree with both sentiments above me. Losing to auburn is more embarrassing than any bowl game or regular loss but the national championship is also more important than any game against auburn.
@@chrisnoe7439 unless your in the group of 5, cuz then you have to win for 10 straight years by 100 points per game to even get into the conversation....
Texas has averaged inside the top ten recruiting classes for several years now, and they’re incredibly well-funded so I’m not sure poor recruiting is the reason they haven’t risen to the top recently. They were #3 in recruiting for 2018 (USC was #4).
Yeah bro fr 🙌🏽🙏🏽 I wish that teams (such as acc teams) could play other teams outside there conference like LSU one year or Ohio state the next so the rankings will be more mix and instead of like Clemson destroying every acc team by 50! That’s me tho but you make really good points and hopefully it make change!
The only reason why Clemson wins almost every game of the year it's because they play against nobody's I'm not saying those teams are bad but they always have an easy schedule.
And Ibelieve they went on probation for recruiting violations.I would love to see Clemson,Tennessee rivalry back on.Battle of the Orange.Easy drive for fans.
As a lifelong ND fan we're rarely in the conversation.. and getting blown out against Clemson, and then ANOTHER rain game debacle really killed us. But I still love college football, and everything about it. It has the best regular season in all of sports.
The one thing I have to say is that the big schools will lose but only drop one or two spots even if they lose to a unranked team because that school has the title
I’m a Clemson fan, I go to Clemson and have lived in South Carolina pretty much my whole life. Even though there was that heartbreaker for us on Monday, I do agree with you. College football is so much fun to watch bc it’s so volatile, and everything means everything, every little mistake costs big, because there are so many teams. But even with all these teams it is always us, Ohio state, Alabama and that’s about it. However, I would like to point out something about Clemson. Clemson’s culture is what draws people to us. We never used to be as good as we are now, Dabo built this team from pretty much the ground up. When Justyn Ross was asked why he was choosing Clemson he said it was because it felt like a family. We are hard working but we also have a program to nurture. Take our back up quarter back for example, Chase Brice. He’s likely transferring, and the whole of Clemson is behind him, we want him to succeed, he wasn’t going to get the recognition he deserved here. We want chase Brice to do well, and I promise wherever he goes everyone here is rooting for him. Now I don’t live in Alabama, so I don’t know firsthand but from what I’d heard from Alabama fans, when tua got hurt everyone thought the season was over, they were done for. Here at Clemson if Trevor got hurt everyone would put their faith in Brice, there wouldn’t be any “I hope he does ok” we would back Brice 100%. That’s why Clemson has the best recruiting class, that’s why were contenders year after year, because Dabo built a program meant to nurture, not compete.
Totally agree with you. My best friend is a Clemson fan and growing up they was just another school they were a 8-9 win middle of the road team now there elite. Its nice to see a s hook that wasn't a big name school come up and make history. I just wish they beat up on my Buckeyes every year
Totally agree about the parity. As a kid (think late 90s), it felt like the # 25 ranked team could easily beat # 1 and anyone else could beat anyone. Now it feels like #10 cant even compete with the playoff teams. I liked it when it felt like good coaching and playing hard was the biggest factor in determining the winner. Now its usually who has a better recruiting class. Thats not exciting.it makes playing the games pointless and anticlimatic.
FCS football is a joke Cole! As a fan of an FCS football team “Southern Illinois University at Carbondale” it’s annoying to see North Dakota State win the Missouri Valley Conference and the FCS National Championship every year! North Dakota State has won 8 National championships in the last 9 years! Every year I know that North Dakota State is going to win the National championship and no one else in the FCS stands a chance against them!I think you should maybe make a video about the FCS and how it’s worst then the FBS, because at least in the FBS their is a different national champion every year!
Yes but literally only like 10-15 team who really only have a chance in the FBS maybe even less just due to the top players just goes to those schools. And after that Is literally anyone’s game which makes it fun
Freddy FTW six teams in the Missouri Valley conference and James Madison University are the only teams in the FCS that can compete with with FBS level teams.
I think a Consolidated League of all the current power Conference teams would be great. Personally I would like 6 conferences of 12 teams each, which would obviously necessitate some reshuffling of the teams, but doing so would restore most of the conferences to the way they were before the most recent realignment- which messed up conferences and disrupted rivalries. Bringing back rivalries such as Texas vs Texas A&M and Oklahoma Nebraska would be a benefit to this plan. Not that conferences would have to go back to exactly the way they were, but that would be some kind of probation for these longtime rivalries to continue to exist. So there would be a total of 72 available slots and 64 teams which are currently in the power 5 conferences, which leaves 8 slots to be filled from Independents and the current group of 5 teams. obviously Notre Dame gets a slot. My other seven choices would be BYU, Army, Navy, UCF, Colorado State, Memphis, Cincinnati and San Diego State. obviously the specific teams could change, but those would be my picks based on recent history, tradition, and which smaller teams play well against the more established teams. My playoff would have 8 teams with 6 Conference champions and two wild cards including the possibility of one of the wild cards Going to a smaller Conference team if they qualify. I would also add a rule that current FBS teams can only play one game outside of the FBS and it has to be played within the first 2 weeks of the year. In other words, no cupcake games in November.
I definitely agree with your love and hate of college football. Even though I'm an LSU fan on top of the mountain right now, I do realize that I better enjoy it while I can. With Alabama and Clemson owning the recruiting rankings yet again, they will be in prime position to play for another title. Ultimately, If there isn't more parity in recruiting, then the results at the end of the season will remain the same. What happened with LSU this year is truly a rarity these days in college football. I just hope there will be more teams like LSU that come from outside of the preseason top 5 or beyond to "actually" challenge these perennial contenders. As much as these teams are dominant and deserve to be there, it really is boring to see the same 3 teams fight it out with the 4 seed as cannon fodder. It really starts at the line of scrimmage. OSU, Bama and Clemson continue to recruit and develop top talent on both sides of the line. As a result, they usually physically dominate the teams on their schedule. Oklahoma has great skill position players but lack dominant line-play. The results speak for themselves. Clemson lost arguably the best defensive line in many years to graduation and the draft. If that line played played LSU in the game, the result may have been much different. And having to tier QB's don't hurt either. 😁
4 team playoffs are fine and nobody can convince me otherwise. Who tf would wanna watch lsu destroy the 8th ranked team in the nation. Win your conference championship, thats essentially your expanded playoff. Go Gators.
People were wanting to get rid of the wild card spot in football so teams like this year's Eagles and Titans wouldn't get in. One of those teams was eliminated quickly, but the other . . . A lot of the times you'll get blowouts sure, though you get plenty of those already (it's kind of the expectation going into a college game), but sometimes you'll see that 8 seed take down the top seed and make for a great experience.
My favorite part of college football is the rivalries, but just behind it is seeing the miracle upsets. This year was perfect for me because I’ve been an Illinois fan since i was a little kid, and Wisconsin and Michigan St were two of the best games I’ve seen them play in ages.
I agree with an expanded playoff because that means more exposure for other teams which could potentially balance out recruiting as kids see other teams competing for the top.
I’m an Oregon fan from Ohio. It’s amazing to see the rise/fall/rise of the team. It’s been great but yes, I do hate seeing Clemson and Bama every year. I like Ohio State since I’m from Ohio though. Although they’re very arrogant 😂
Ohio state fans are most of the reason everyone hates that school. Besides osu fans I can’t think of anything I really hate about Ohio State. Just there fans are like a nuclear power plant
My dad played for ball state (mac school) and was their starting quarterback. He never got to show his potential against other schools as much as schools like usc and indiana do. I think a wild card from non power five conferences might add some of the excitement that college basketball has
i think i am just a salty TCU fan but someone had to say something
Cole Adams I have a problem for paying college players as this will unintentionally hurt Army, Navy and Air-forces football programs due to rules that the schools have. This is after it being difficult to recruit to these schools in the first place just my two cents feel free to disagree.
Thanks for reading this comment
Could you make some more MLB videos, please? You haven't put one out in over a year.
2013 Michigan State > 2014 Tcu And it isnt very close...
Cole Adams it honestly isn't that fun being a spoiled osu fan bc half our games are blowouts and it's even more heart breaking when we lose
Man I'm an OU fan, how do you think I feel? Ain't easy making the playoff, only to get blown out in the first round, like why do we even get in if this is how it ends all the time?

Tracking The Market Been with em while they were garbage too
Okay LSU fan
I go to the University of Kansas, I don’t want to hear any complaints out of anyone 😂
2007-2008 was amazing though wasn't it :) I was only 13 but the happiest kid.
I lived in Tulsa that year. It was awesome coming back from Christmas vacation after all the insufferable OU fans said VT would smoke KU. The fact the Sooners were destroyed by the Mountaineers in the Fiesta Bowl was icing on the cake!
Fuck kansas
William Palmer Hell yeah, fuck OU
Bruh I go to The university of New Mexico... it gets worse. In fact I think the 3 teams that run along the rio grande river (UNM, NMSU, UTEP) only won 3 or 4 games last year combined.
Thanks for mentioning Minnesota. I became a Student there this year and had one of the best college sports years anyone can wish for.
I’ve always been an NFC north guy, but having a story as the gophers has really changed the mindset of the state.
Especially after that Vikes debacle.
Much like Baylor and Utah they're just one quarterback away from being legitimate contenders.
Find somebody that doesn't suck and these programs will be going places.
@@bolbyballinger you think Tanner Morgan sucks?
@@charltonwake6813 If he's the quarterback of the Minnesota Gophers then yes, he does suck.
Every time I watched them play, even during the big upset, the entire passing offense seemed to revolve around him throwing the ball as far as he could and some poor receiver being forced to make a 50/50 catch.
He's lucky his receivers are good at doing so.
To be fair though crappy quarterback seems to be the problem for every not quite playoffs team. Baylor, Penn, Utah, Minnesota. All just one qb away.
@@bolbyballinger I dont think you know what you're talking about if you say he sucks. "50/50 catches" so you didnt watch any gopher football this year.
I love watching colledge football every Saturday night in the fall with my dad
Enjoy it man. My dad had season tickets at Furman and Clemson since I was born and we went to one of the two games every Saturday. He passed away in 2017 and I go sit in his seat now. Make sure to hug your dad and let him know you love him. A relationship like that is special.

I have always loved the ncaa sometimes even more than the nfl. As a kid I could never sleep in on Saturday’s so I would watch spongebob super early and then flip the channel to college game day, the greatest sports show of all time. The excitement and fun that comes with the sport was contagious and that is what football is about.

Ask Oklahoma how "having a shot at the title" felt this year
And last year and the year before lol
Piero Sanchez and the two years before that lmao
And every year they’ve been in a title game or playoff game since 2001 lmao
My boys at LSU had a bloodbath..
Oklahoma is a quarterback not a team and that's how they have always been
If they made the playoff 8 teams, that would help recruiting because players have more options to compete for a title, and it would let more teams to compete for a title. That fixes everything!!!!
I mean the answear to evryproblem seems to be to expand the playoff
This year proved that wouldn’t have fixed anything. My LSU was head and shoulders above number 4 (and everyone but I won’t get into that), and there were only 3 teams that had a legit shot. Why expand to add other teams that will just get kneecapped and sacrificed?
@@grantd8575 well you expand the playoffs and you will have more top talent head to other schools. Joe Burrow got to play with NFL talent in the following years because LSU is one of the bigger names that doesn't usually make it. But compare the talent at LSU to the talent at Oklahoma or Oregon and its completely different. You expand the playoffs to at least 8 and you will see a more talent head outside of the four that are always in the playoffs in the past decade.
That’s a good point I never even thought about
@@themanofconstantsorrowelia1929 it really won't change recruiting all that much outside of a couple kids here and there tho, all those kids will think is "why would I go to a team that makes it to the playoffs and gets blown out every year when I can go to a team that makes it and wins every year."
Hey Cole Adams, you said that you were looking to research the topic of college hockey and its recent rapid rise of the talent pool and sending more players to the NHL. As well as more big time teams looking at the possibility of adding teams.
For example, at the #ACHA level (Non NCAA Hockey). We had a recent crowd at the Winter Classic in Dallas,, we had the Univ. Of Texas & Texas A&M Club Teams at the ACHA Division 2 Level recently draw a little over 5,000 fans. This could make a statement for college hockey growth in Texas.
Another big reason for this is the growing number of strong international players playing in the NCAA. For example, at the recent World Junior Hockey Championship, we had NCAA Players playing for 🇫🇮, 🇨🇦 and 🇨🇭. 🇸🇪 and 🇸🇰 also had committed players to NCAA Teams in the tournament. Other countries like 🇫🇷 have had current players and/or commitments also play in the WJC Qualifiers.
I love how being a Penn State student gives you optimism each fall semester that THIS YEAR will be our year... Before we inevitably lose to OSU or Michigan plus another road Big 10 game thanks to a coaching blunder by James Franklin
That's just the nature of college football.
You know penn state almost beat us right? It’s really not inevitable
If you didn’t lose to the fucking gophers 💀
More like penn head state.🤭
CFB has so much passion. I enjoy watching CFB more than any other sport for that reason. Watching these young guys come together to make a great team is wonderful.
Chris Nguyen I refuse
agree so much. I go to the most passionate game played. Army Navy. Also been to three Sugar Bowls, two Cotton , a peach(Army Illinois)one Orange,one Fiesta,(Penn State Miami.)These do not compare to Army Navy. Love the college game like me, you have GOT to see at least one Army Navy game. Passion like I can not describe. Go Army,Beat Navy!
I wouldnt call LSU a Cinderella story. Look at their recruiting classes
It may take a year or two to fully recover after burrow and Brady’s loss but other than that I agree
Lsu in 20 years have 3 champiomships and have been ranked in 18 of them they always good.
@Sorin \\ that's not true. Clemsons recruiting class is ranked #3 right now.
Nicholas Vandergeest Any idea how many of those years they finished top 10? They’ve always been a QB and a better offensive scheme away from smothering bama’s legacy.
I agree, it's more of an inevitable breakthrough than a Cinderella story.
College football is 100% better than NFL. Waking up on that Saturday morning and watching college game day there is nothing better it truly holds a special place in my heart
Even Gameday is so much worse than it used to be. I had a clip from Gameday from 2005 come through my recommended videos a couple of months ago. It was amazing. They actually talked about football. I learned who some of the players were that were not Heisman candidates. They talked about different defensive schemes. You might actually learn some football.
If watching a competition where 80 percent of all the teams have zero hope of winning anything in the next decade is your thing, keep watching it.
Ocean Thresher yes I agree most teams don’t have a chance but u have to think abt this most teams don’t care for the national championship they care about the old rivalry’s that’s what means more the bragging rights and the tradition the talegating it’s just all magical and u don’t see that kind of passion in the NFL and u know it to
Hi’PO Clan because in the NFL, the bragging rights are Super Bowls won, not regular season games won against a rival. The Dolphins might have given the Patriots problems in the regular season, but the Pats just need to show all their banners to silence them.
If I had a glass of beer every time he said the word "title" I would be dead.
I actually counted how many times he said "title", it was 21 times. So I would be dead way before he ended.
The main problem with CFB is that you have 5 power conferences that dont play the same schedules and you just have to use subjective measures to determine the best teams.
It is the same teams every year it’s so top heavy. I’ve always liked the NFL because at the end of the day it’s more fair because everyone’s a pro and it feels like everyone has a chance
8:23 "snubbed for a team with a higher ceiling because of their name" Shows Michigan clip. Too accurate
I love college football and all of it's tradition. You make great points. But it was like this 80's, 90's and early 2000's when Miami Nebraska Norte Dame USC were dominated football. To have these schools dominate again u need great coaching. With great coaching u get the great players. Then u dominate. Everything comes in circles.
Precisely.
But thats not fun to watch, before the patriots era rose the NFL was fun to watch because every year you could loose your throne. At least I see it that way!
Don't forget Oklahoma and even kansas
Tiago Gonçalves The last had far more champions, but there wasn’t a system in place to create unanimous champions unless you were undisputedly dominant.
@@Creolegyrl225 And Colorado
I miss the era where Miami Florida State Florida Texas Tennessee Georgia Oklahoma USC LSU Ohio State Michigan Virginia Tech Auburn Nebraska and Penn State were always good those were the top 15 schools from 93 to 07 Clemson was just ok and nobody cared about Alabama they was stuck in the middle with Arkansas and South Carolina and you get a surprise run from UCLA Cal Texas Tech Louisville Cincinnati South Florida etc
I'm always gonna prefer the NFL because I want to see the best of the best play, and more open competition. Like you mentioned, in college football its a small handful of schools that dominate every single year. That's boring. And I honestly don't give a shit about the traditions or rivalries either. Just my 2 cents.
Yeah like the Patriots dominating every year after year after year that didn't get boring neither just my two cents
@@user-gj6lm9zv9s still, 13 different superbowl winners in the past 16 years. Shows the competitivness of the league
Even tho I think college football is better, I won’t argue with anyone on that point. The NFL definitely has more parity and that’s what holding cfb back
You know Clemson use to be a team who was ranked between 20-25 5-10 years ago and bama is about to fall off but I do agree with a 8 team playoffs
Bama's about to fall off? woah don't get too ahead of yourself. Btw Im not a Bama fan
"About to fall off" vs Top 5 in recruiting every year since what, 2008? Pick one.
Bama is literally 5 years (66-6 since 2015, which was the 7th year of the dynasty) beyond when traditional dynasties collapse.
Bama about to fall off? Lmaooo
at least 6, with top 2 having bye's first round.
Ba ha ha. Lemme know how that works out.
Texas has good recruiting classes they just are bad. Look at their recruiting and explain to me how they aren’t better
Agent Tizzle Texas is back!
Agent Tizzle Texas had a down year this year but they were still a solid team and were good the prior 2 years. They have a lot of returning talent so they should be a top 10 team next year
Agent Tizzle they also had several fluke losses and most of their losses were to top 15 teams. They only lost by 7 to the national champs.
@@KennCobain when will that happen, roll tide

Penn State wins Big 10, goes undefeated, beats Texas (U.S.C. Clemson P.S.U.,Texas all unbeaten) in semi's and U.S.C. in Championship. Hope big game is in Rose Bowl this year.
Notre dame’s had a couple years of elite recruit classes now, they’ll be up there the next two or three years
If the Big 10 has fall sports, Michigan N.J.Pa. Minn.Ill. still shut down, Penn State will win every game, beat Badgers and make final 4.They are the most complete team in nation, ass is U.S.C. Complete Team's COMPLETE!!
I am a die hard ND fan. College football was great when I was a young kid and teen in the late 80s through the 90s with Lou Holtz at the helm. They should have won in 93 but lost to BC. That was one hell of a game that might not happen again since BC's program is going nowhere fast.

As a Cincinnati Bearcat student and season ticket holder, I hate a lot about college football.
Honestly i think players profiting from their likeness will actually improve parity. If you're a top 20 recruit, would you rather go to Alabama and be just another guy in the uniform, or go to a team like TA&M, Houston, U or another smaller program and be the #1 superstar face of the team getting undivided media attention? It'll pull those top guys away from the top teams because they'll want to be able to profit more.

Thanks for bringing up the point about the whole long layoff between games! I've always made that argument and that honestly the reason I call out Bana for always scheduling there out of conference opponent the first game of the season which gives them 9 months to prepare.

The playoffs should be every fbs conference winner and the committee picks the remaining wild cards
Dylan Crawford they pick the last team. Make it 6 teams like nfl
Or we just get rid of conferences entirely and stop letting teams make their own schedules.
Doing so would allow us to seed teams by their record and only use strength of schedule as a tiebreaker.
Liam Carruthers yeah last two teams picked. Some of these teams deserve it more than some other blue collar school that played low-level opponents. There shouldn’t only be TWO pac-12 teams that make in existence of the committee
I’m loving all this Frog talk! Really underrated team, but almost always great! You deserve more subs man.
College football is cyclical. 20 years ago Miami, Nebraska, and USC were incredible and seemed like they would be good forever. Alabama and Clemson will come back to earth eventually and new teams will rise and take over for 5-10 years. This is always how it has been and will continue to be forever
Passion is a part of it, having three teams doesn’t help
The problem there is that it makes it impossible for new fans to feel welcome.
Trying to figure out who your team is? Well fuck you!
If college football keeps having this attitude they'll find that they can't draw in new fans.
Also why the fuck would any intelligent being be passionate about the teams?
They do nothing but fuck over their players at every opportunity.
I'll have favorite players, but teams? Fuck them.
Bolby Ballinger honestly idk what you’re even saying lol
No such thing as a fan of 3 teams.
I think it’s too early for April fools
If you don't like CFP, you can always go watch FCS playoffs. There's a REASON that FBS doesn't do a massive bracket system like that. They don't want to set it up so top talent are playing a bunch of extra very competitive games every year. That would only create tons of problems, not the least of which is increasing risk of injury.
You’re right. Here in Ohio, OSU is the only football we have
Definitely not getting anywhere with the Bengals and Browns lol
I’ve always loved watching college football, even more than the nfl, but dang! You got some great reasons that I didnt think of

Michael M what’s been predictable about this NFL season?
Expanding to 6 or 8 teams needs to happen in the near future. The only problem with this is that I don't think it will happen anytime soon because of so many old heads that run the sport that are stuck in their own ways.

- winning a championship works more like american idol than actual football league

- 90% of teams are irrelevant as they have absolutely no chance of ever winning the title
- no unique brands to get behind. a million teams called eagles, bulldogs, or tigers, usually with a letter as their logo
- the best teams are obviously cheating to get top recruits
- i didn't go to a university, so no team means anything to me
- stars will only be on the team for at most, 4 years
just my opinion. could never get into it.
When it comes to the games themselves. 2 of my favorite football games of all-time were Boise State upsetting Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl, and Texas beating USC with Reggie Bush and Vince Young at the height of their hype.
As a Texas, Oregon, and Florida fan, it's been tough decade:/
Recruiting hasn't been an issue for Texas though, we just suck at player development.
We do, hopefully we’ll be good this next season. Hook em.
Been a tough decade for an Oregon fan? Lol you sound ignorant. Most conference titles than any other Pac12 school, 3 Rose Bowl victories, and 2 national title appearances. Had a 2 year hiatus from being elite with crap coaching and have a 9-1 record vs Oregon State and a 8-2 record vs Washington. And that’s with no great recruiting classes until 2018.
Like I said before, you sound ignorant.
I miss Tennessee vs. Florida being a top ten matchup and my favorite game of the year
My Washington Huskies were a top ten team for 3+ years and we never won a single new year six bowl. Then we lost against Oregon and Utah by one td. And we lost to Oregon because of a missed field goal. Don’t get me started about auburn. Also why do we get more hate for being in the playoffs then Ohio State. THEY GOT BLOWN OUT AND WE HAD MAJOR INJURIES!
Another reason I can’t get into watching college football is because every week 90% of the games every week are blowouts. And out that last 10% you’ll be lucky if one of those games is going to include a game with a team looking to contend for a title. Which as he stated is basically Clemson, Alabama, Ohio State, and a couple others.
Thank you for mentioning Minnesota. GO GOPHERS.
ROW THE BOAT

Granted Im' European, maybe I don't know that much about your kind of football. However I enjoy collage football much more than the NFL, for me it is just much more entertaining as a viewer. I think a factor is the skill level of the players. They aren't as skilled the NFL players but they are still good enough to play entertaining and exciting football. They make huge plays, bust a defensive coverage that allows a 60 yard TD pass and stuff like that, it ain't the best quality, but it's entertaining as hell. The season opener between Florida and Miami is the perfect example of this, terrible football, entertaining as fuck to watch.
The thing I find the most stupid in general are they players. Take for instance a 5 star QB, most likely he is going to commit to Bama, Clemson, OSU or one of the biggest schools, which all still have maybe 3 other 5 star QB's on the roster. I get it that they wanna play for the best teams and say they "aren't afraid of competition", but in reality, why not just go to a team like Baylor, Minnesota, UFC or one of those teams? They are still really good and guaranteed not to have as talented QB's, why not go where you can be the number 1 guy from day 1? Players need to swallow their pride and go where they will play, as a young player in any sport, you won't get better if you don't play.
Look at Burrow, didn't play at OSU, went to LSU. Had one year as a full starter to become better, and look at him now.
I see you using the 2007 Images of the Year footage. One of the best images of the year videos ever.
This is how you make everyone happy: 8 playoff teams, all 5 power 5 champions get in so every power 5 conference is represented, then the highest ranked group of 5 gets in so they are represented, the other 2 spots are wild cards that the committee chooses so you can still get in without a conference championship. Then out of the pool of 8 the committee will rank them how they see fit and play the tournament.
I still love college football. I like the reasons you listed. I use to watch everything for years. Then SEC got loud and with the media altering recruiting as well by hyping up one conference and alignment happening with Missouri and A&M going to the SEC opened up the gates gravitate more recruits Southeast. I'm probably just older and miss the way things use to be and conferences were more regional, most the kids stayed in their region and got to see more mid west, west coast, north east, and southeast kids compete against each other in bowls and national championships, I wish the old conference set up was still intact for the playoff era. And I love the 6 team playoff with the byes.
Those West Coast teams didn't fall off b/c recruiting changed, recruiting changed b/c those teams fell off (mainly due to administration).

I was really confused when I saw this title, but this is a really good video. Nobody else had a chance except the powerhouses, CFB is too top heavy :(
Expanding the playoffs isn’t about “This team should be in because we think they will win” it’s about “These extra teams should be in because they deserve a CHANCE to win. They won the same amount of games and won their conference. Why leave who should get in so much up to human opinion?”
All of these teams that he is talking about didn’t get into the playoff because they lost
Which is always the case, they don't even have a point. Power 5 teams only have to win their games. Teams like Iowa, Iowa State, even Rutgers or Vanderbilt would 100% make the playoffs if they win their games.
Stop caring about the National Championship and enjoy the season. The allure of College Football has never been the National Championship.
If youre making it to the national championship that means youre not loosing very often, if any at all. We all hate loosing, its not enjoyable, especially to rivals. So yeah, its about winning for me.

As a lifelong ND fan we're rarely in the conversation.. and getting blown out against Clemson, and then ANOTHER rain game debacle really killed us. But I still love college football, and everything about it. It has the best regular season in all of sports.
The one thing I have to say is that the big schools will lose but only drop one or two spots even if they lose to a unranked team because that school has the title
I’m a Clemson fan, I go to Clemson and have lived in South Carolina pretty much my whole life. Even though there was that heartbreaker for us on Monday, I do agree with you. College football is so much fun to watch bc it’s so volatile, and everything means everything, every little mistake costs big, because there are so many teams. But even with all these teams it is always us, Ohio state, Alabama and that’s about it. However, I would like to point out something about Clemson. Clemson’s culture is what draws people to us. We never used to be as good as we are now, Dabo built this team from pretty much the ground up. When Justyn Ross was asked why he was choosing Clemson he said it was because it felt like a family. We are hard working but we also have a program to nurture. Take our back up quarter back for example, Chase Brice. He’s likely transferring, and the whole of Clemson is behind him, we want him to succeed, he wasn’t going to get the recognition he deserved here. We want chase Brice to do well, and I promise wherever he goes everyone here is rooting for him. Now I don’t live in Alabama, so I don’t know firsthand but from what I’d heard from Alabama fans, when tua got hurt everyone thought the season was over, they were done for. Here at Clemson if Trevor got hurt everyone would put their faith in Brice, there wouldn’t be any “I hope he does ok” we would back Brice 100%. That’s why Clemson has the best recruiting class, that’s why were contenders year after year, because Dabo built a program meant to nurture, not compete.
Totally agree with you. My best friend is a Clemson fan and growing up they was just another school they were a 8-9 win middle of the road team now there elite. Its nice to see a s hook that wasn't a big name school come up and make history. I just wish they beat up on my Buckeyes every year
how about a Minnesota video pls
ps: just cause you said Minnesota doesnt mean you get out of it
We need to bring back the BCS system because in that system, conference championships and bowl games really mattered.
Totally agree about the parity. As a kid (think late 90s), it felt like the # 25 ranked team could easily beat # 1 and anyone else could beat anyone.
Now it feels like #10 cant even compete with the playoff teams.
I liked it when it felt like good coaching and playing hard was the biggest factor in determining the winner. Now its usually who has a better recruiting class.
Thats not exciting.it makes playing the games pointless and anticlimatic.
FCS football is a joke Cole! As a fan of an FCS football team “Southern Illinois University at Carbondale” it’s annoying to see North Dakota State win the Missouri Valley Conference and the FCS National Championship every year! North Dakota State has won 8 National championships in the last 9 years! Every year I know that North Dakota State is going to win the National championship and no one else in the FCS stands a chance against them!I think you should maybe make a video about the FCS and how it’s worst then the FBS, because at least in the FBS their is a different national champion every year!

Yes but literally only like 10-15 team who really only have a chance in the FBS maybe even less just due to the top players just goes to those schools. And after that Is literally anyone’s game which makes it fun
Freddy FTW six teams in the Missouri Valley conference and James Madison University are the only teams in the FCS that can compete with with FBS level teams.
Steve Barnes financially they can’t
@@footballtalkwithfreddy8684 once again showing that Division 1 FBS success is more about money than actual ability.
We need more Baylor stories in college football.
I think a Consolidated League of all the current power Conference teams would be great. Personally I would like 6 conferences of 12 teams each, which would obviously necessitate some reshuffling of the teams, but doing so would restore most of the conferences to the way they were before the most recent realignment- which messed up conferences and disrupted rivalries. Bringing back rivalries such as Texas vs Texas A&M and Oklahoma Nebraska would be a benefit to this plan. Not that conferences would have to go back to exactly the way they were, but that would be some kind of probation for these longtime rivalries to continue to exist.
So there would be a total of 72 available slots and 64 teams which are currently in the power 5 conferences, which leaves 8 slots to be filled from Independents and the current group of 5 teams. obviously Notre Dame gets a slot. My other seven choices would be BYU, Army, Navy, UCF, Colorado State, Memphis, Cincinnati and San Diego State.
obviously the specific teams could change, but those would be my picks based on recent history, tradition, and which smaller teams play well against the more established teams.
My playoff would have 8 teams with 6 Conference champions and two wild cards including the possibility of one of the wild cards Going to a smaller Conference team if they qualify.
I would also add a rule that current FBS teams can only play one game outside of the FBS and it has to be played within the first 2 weeks of the year. In other words, no cupcake games in November.
I definitely agree with your love and hate of college football. Even though I'm an LSU fan on top of the mountain right now, I do realize that I better enjoy it while I can. With Alabama and Clemson owning the recruiting rankings yet again, they will be in prime position to play for another title. Ultimately, If there isn't more parity in recruiting, then the results at the end of the season will remain the same.
What happened with LSU this year is truly a rarity these days in college football. I just hope there will be more teams like LSU that come from outside of the preseason top 5 or beyond to "actually" challenge these perennial contenders. As much as these teams are dominant and deserve to be there, it really is boring to see the same 3 teams fight it out with the 4 seed as cannon fodder.
It really starts at the line of scrimmage. OSU, Bama and Clemson continue to recruit and develop top talent on both sides of the line. As a result, they usually physically dominate the teams on their schedule. Oklahoma has great skill position players but lack dominant line-play. The results speak for themselves. Clemson lost arguably the best defensive line in many years to graduation and the draft. If that line played played LSU in the game, the result may have been much different.
And having to tier QB's don't hurt either. 😁
4 team playoffs are fine and nobody can convince me otherwise. Who tf would wanna watch lsu destroy the 8th ranked team in the nation. Win your conference championship, thats essentially your expanded playoff. Go Gators.
People were wanting to get rid of the wild card spot in football so teams like this year's Eagles and Titans wouldn't get in. One of those teams was eliminated quickly, but the other . . .
A lot of the times you'll get blowouts sure, though you get plenty of those already (it's kind of the expectation going into a college game), but sometimes you'll see that 8 seed take down the top seed and make for a great experience.
As an Ou fan, I agree with some of the stuff but i don't know man about most of it
My favorite part of college football is the rivalries, but just behind it is seeing the miracle upsets. This year was perfect for me because I’ve been an Illinois fan since i was a little kid, and Wisconsin and Michigan St were two of the best games I’ve seen them play in ages.
I agree with an expanded playoff because that means more exposure for other teams which could potentially balance out recruiting as kids see other teams competing for the top.
I’m an Oregon fan from Ohio. It’s amazing to see the rise/fall/rise of the team. It’s been great but yes, I do hate seeing Clemson and Bama every year. I like Ohio State since I’m from Ohio though. Although they’re very arrogant 😂
Ohio state fans are most of the reason everyone hates that school. Besides osu fans I can’t think of anything I really hate about Ohio State. Just there fans are like a nuclear power plant
@@colinoesterle3517 I don't like their mascot. I also don't like how they always win. So them being a powerhouse is something to hate I guess.
lmao you basically admit you're a bandwagon fan in the first 30 seconds, hard to take your opinion seriously
@Chris Nguyen facts
Chris Nguyen no
Wanna fix college football? Expand the playoffs! That’ll directly address all complaints of disparity
My dad played for ball state (mac school) and was their starting quarterback. He never got to show his potential against other schools as much as schools like usc and indiana do. I think a wild card from non power five conferences might add some of the excitement that college basketball has
And then there’s Michigan. Gets top recruits every year and can’t finish higher than 3rd place
They are better at basketball
