College Fusbol

[frankbmd]

I get sick of college fusbol. The conferences change annually. There are the Big 16, the PAC 2, and the Atlantic coast is 20000 miles long with members all over the country. Are they expecting an Atlantic flood? Will the Big 16 be the
Big 14 next year or the Big 18? Who knows and who cares.

With 10 or 12 teams undefeated after 10 or 12 weeks of this season, is selecting a champion based on a four team playoff sensible. Not only that, but invariably the same teams end up in the playoff over and over. Why not just let Alabama and Ohio State just flip a coin in August and be done with it. Bullshit.

College fusbol needs relegation like soccer in the premier league. Let those 10 or 12 teams play each other during regular season next year. Then we will find out who the best is, if anyone really cares. No one even talks about the fine education these young men get playing football anymore. When a player enters the portal, are his academic credits transferable? I haven't heard that discussed. Imagine opening up the flood gates wider so the college football masses could all end up with ivy League degrees. At least the Ivy League could claim legitimate Atlantic Coast status.

I think the portal system should be a one way ticket to the Gaza Strip (not really). But when the Wake Forest quarterback for four years goes into a portal and ends up at Notre Dame for a fifth year, you must realize that money must be a factor. Why is Notre Dame in the ACC in every sport except football? Can't the football team swim or can't they understand that South Bend is not on the Atlantic Ocean?

And what about the cupcakes scrimmaging with the Michigans and Clemsons. If you were a cupcake player wouldn't you rather have a chance to win a game, rather than have the cr_p beat out of you in the Horseshoe or in the Colisseum, so your alma mater can afford better helmets to protect you in the slaughters.

What happens if the 10 or 12 undefeated teams this year just keep winning and eight years from now several of them have 100 game winning streaks. Wasn't there a story about Alabama recently suggesting that the school pay students to not leave the stadium at halftime in the midst of a 77-0 blowout. You couldn't pay me enough to attend the first half of such a game.

Please chime in with your thoughts on relegation, where the best teams play each other during the regular season. All games become more competitive in all divisions. And I know someone is going to cry about losing a cherished rivalry game with this system. But I'll toss you a dog biscuit and pacify you by allowing each team to schedule one out of division rivalry game each year. Don't you honestly think taking the fusbol out of college football is such a bad idea.
