OFFICIAL 2024-2025 COLLEGE FOOTBALL SEASON THREAD *LYIN' SZN IS HERE*

[frshstunna]

Don’t think I’ve ever seen this before

Those dudes all got in the secondary group chat and said “we getting the F outta there”

For the first time ever is kinda insane

Sadly most brothas don’t get the head job but still a disgraceful reality. I’ve been saying this since 04 but I wish brothas at the college level and the NFL had the opportunity to be selective when choosing jobs because they are often stuck in terrible situations with no chance to win only to get fired after a few years.

 

[Remy LeBeau]

I guess I'm rooting for penn st

If I gotta root for Ryan Day it's gonna be the lightskinned version

 

[rolaholic]

Probably as good as compromise as there'll be

 

[Remy LeBeau]

They'll still be guys getting 6-8 years of eligiblity

Checks bouncing without that expected CFB semi payment?

Sun not as bright, grass not as green, in January as it was during that last visit?

 

[jpzx]

Idk if we’re gonna get like 8 years like the dude in Miami because of Covid, but this is the Pros now, so them floating five years is big. Like before you go to the pro leagues, you’ll make money, maybe a lot, but now for five years you could do that in college.

Will they call it da Boris Protocol or da Nix Accords?

 

[Remy LeBeau]

What are some of y'all suggestions on the seeding/bye issue?

 

[finessence]

What are some of y'all suggestions on the seeding/bye issue?

Let the first two seeds get a bye and make the rest of the field play

 

[Remy LeBeau]

Does that change much though? Had that been the case this year, I think it's the same outcome we have now

 

[aepps20]

What are some of y'all suggestions on the seeding/bye issue?

My proposal is as follows noting that the NCAA might lose money on the weekly rankings shows.

1. No byes to prevent rust

2. First two rounds played on campus with revenue from ticket sales split evenly with the home and road teams.

3. No official playoff rankings until the end like they do in college basketball to keep the suspense and to give the committee a full body of work to put the best 12 teams on the field.

The thing is the 12 team was never designed to have 12 contenders. We all know there are really only like 5 teams that have a real shot on a given season. It was designed to allow more participation and of course, money. People cried about the BCS and cried about 4 not being enough. There’s always going to be blowouts because 12 is way too many.

With that said, get rid of the auto bye just for winning a conference. Sorry but winning the B12 does not have the same weight as winning the SEC or B1G. Make it an auto bud but that’s it. Boise and ASU should’ve never been in the top 4, I don’t care how close ASU made it.

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

I think all of the playoff games should be on campus except for the championship game. The less neutral site games the better

Or at worst the semi finals should be some rotation of 2 of the 4 major bowls

Let the bowls be the bowls

This 12 team playoff is really just a means to eventually get to 16 where at that point there will probably be more rampant changes

Agreed. It’s pretty wild that the top 4 seeds who had byes didn’t get home games.

I don’t understand how all of this travel will work for fans either. Let’s say Tennessee had beaten Ohio State, they would’ve had to travel to Columbus, Pasadena, and now Texas? That’s insane

hmmmmmm.

Smells like he’ll be a Trojan in the future

you ain’t low

This whole thing is stupid, that’s why

And I’m not just saying that because FSU was screwed out of the playoffs because they lost 42 games this year

I’ll always love college football because I love college football, but all this other stuff is so dumb

 

[atlsfinest]

 

[Remy LeBeau]

I think they should use the FCS format just less teams

Brian Kelly left Notre Dame because he thought they weren’t capable of competing for a title in the modern age. What a clown

Credit to Marcus Freeman. He’s taken their recruiting to the next level.

 

[tmay407]

Don’t think you’re getting the question. If you are, you’re saying 17 year old you and 17 year old smith were the same level athlete.

Or maybe you’re saying he was born a better athlete than you ever were.

Oh yea, I don’t think I read it right. 18 year old me could take newborn Jeremiah. Probably never if we’re the same age.

 

[witnesskb24]

Higher seed, higher ranked, and basically a home game

They roll the buckeyes by 14+
