The legacy Big 12 teams are playing zero, ZERO, FBS teams. And they’ll be whining the loudest at the end of the year if one of them is like 10-2 and doesn’t get into the playoff. 7 original Big 12 teams playing the likes of UT Martin, fucking Abilene Christian and Lindenwood.
Credit to WVU and TCU for working in compelling matchups and to UH and the Arizona schools for at least trying. Both Utah schools scheduled trash as well as the originals.
Just about everyone schedules an FCS school every year, regardless of conference. The only programs that don't have enough money buy out of road games to crappy FBS schools.

I had a very realistic dream last night that aggy and the Texas Big12 schools lobbied the state leg to put “salary caps” on player comp because if they can’t compete they wanted to make sure we couldn’t either. Was hard to believe that it didn’t happen for the first 30 minutes I was awake.
No way any sort of salary cap could get implemented without aggy losing a whole lot of ability to pay recruits. Take away the money and they are left trying to get recruits to College Station, sharing a campus with a fake army, a graveyard for dogs, and a bunch of assholes yelling at them to get off the grass.

Title 9 is going to fuck this whole deal. When the women's rowers demand to be paid the same as the starting QB, he'll sue for not getting his value. And they'll sue for equal pay. Rock and hard place.
Yeah, the obvious solution would be to decouple football from the universities, but I don't think people would still watch without that affiliation.

Yep bought the Xbox for this as well
Gamepass is pretty dope although I've mostly been playing a shit ton of Battlefield 5
I think Gamepass gives me College Football 25.. madden came with it
Every EA game ends up on Gamepass about a year after it comes out.

Buying out of a game against App State without any sort of major extenuating circumstances should add a loss to your record.

Okay thought it would be more inflammatory…but I agree with this and I figured the Big 12/ACC/Big East would too with quality bubble teams all being in the outside looking in. The SEC, notably, didn’t have a real quality team miss out this year (17 win LSU or #90 NET Ole Miss).
We have too many DI conferences which means too many AQs. DI is too big need to be split in half like the NCAA president was trying to propose.
Is anyone actually upset by this, or is it just fun to point and laugh at the SEC’s shitty basketball?
I'm not upset by it, but I would rather watch the tiny schools pull off upsets and make runs than see a mediocre power school do that. So I think he's dead wrong in terms of what drives viewership.

I just want one side (whether it is the ACC or the unsatisfied institutions) to have a lopsided, humiliating loss. Either GORs are eviscerated or FSU & Clemson get tagged with a huge exit fee. I also want Stanford to have to be in a conference with Texas Tech. While I have your attention, I'd like to date an Asian college girl from California and some inside info on the next big crypto investment. I'm not asking for the world here. It just boils down to who among (or whom amongst) you will step up and deliver on all of this. I'm not getting any younger, so someone needs to get motivated and get to work. I'm counting on you.
All of this sounds great, but I think it's better if Stanford and Cal get rejected by the Big 12.

So for those that don't follow, is Trev actually good AD?
He cost Nebraska $7.5 million by firing Scott Frost a few weeks early. He also looks and talks like a moron and Nebraska loves him, so I'm pretty sure he's a terrible AD.

I like how in every re-defamement, he keeps saying that he has no idea who she is. Dude how much time did you spend in that courtroom? If you don't know who she is at this point you should probably see a doctor.
Maybe his mind is actually so far gone that he really doesn't know who she is and he keeps defaming her because he can't remember that he's already lost 2 lawsuits for that.

This past year, in the final Dec. 3 rankings, FSU was ACC champ. Next ACC team was Louisville at 15 (not in). Highest of the new B12 was Arizona at 14. Notre Dame was 16.
We have debated here- who is more deserving of an at large bid- a two loss B12 team or a three loss SEC/B1G team? The SEC and B1G are pushing their chips in.It depends on the schedule. Conference affiliation doesn't mean much when they are so big you only play half of the teams.

If the new league can generate just half the money the NFL does that is 9 billion a year industry. In 2022 NCAA only made like 1.2 billion.
9 billion to 48 teams is like 190 million per team a year and at 60 teams that's like 150 million per team.There is absolutely too much money being left on the table. Anything over 1.2 billion is TONS more money for member teams of whatever becomes of CFB.
There is absolutely no way that college athletics will ever generate half the money the NFL does.

Why? What makes you think KSU, OSU and KU are positioned to be better than CU, ASU and Arizona in future years?
Fan support and recent history of success. Kansas is a stretch if we are talking more than the next couple of years. I would probably swap them for TCU.

The better Big 12 games will involve Utah, CU and the Arizona schools.
This is completely insane. The better games will include Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Utah, and Kansas.

The UM fans I know went to WMU and the UM alums I know aren't sports fans.
That also tracks with me, but my sample size is 3 people.

Yeah, asking for immunity for NCAA violations is just an admission that you plan on cheating. And NIL makes so much activity legal these days that you really have to cheat fairly blatantly to raise an eyebrow.

this is kind of bullshit on the part of Jim and he is starting to look like a bigger asshole than usual
Michigan paid him a shit load of money to kind of chug along and "win some games" while making sure to lose to tOUS plus MSU, or Iowa, or ND, or Wisconsin in the same season and to take a bowl L and finally they were pissed off enough to call him on his bullshit, but did not fire him and reworked his contract so he actually has some incentives and hey fuck what do you know IT WORKED
and now he is back acting like he needs to get retribution for all of that and that they should have just rode that out and handed him an extension going down the same path and not even thought of firing him because "well you know we will win it all eventually" vs sitting down with him and not firing him and incentivizing him and EXTENDING him
I am sure he thinks his shit does not stink and if Michigan had fired him he would have landed some other top job or would have easily gone back to the NFL for a good team and maybe he would have, but he also could have ended up at some shittier situation with a short leash because people knew his shit smelled a little and if he could not get it done at Michigan then no need to act like he walks on water
now he is just dragging the bullshit out.....much less all the little infractions and the attitude of "fuck the NCAA let the university deal with it I am busy".....which is all fine and good if people want to hate on the NCAA (which is run by the universities), but it is still shit that Michigan has to clean up of his and an example of if you have him around you have to put up with his bullshit even if he is not winning it all and losing to the teams his school most wants to beat
he was not kicked in the head enough as a kid or something he is just not right
I don't blame him one bit for trying to squeeze everything out of them that he can. The iron is hot.

Are you implying that App State and Liberty have some amount of prestige?

Meh
Not any better than Lawrence, IMO. I'd probably lean KU if I ever watched a game at the Phog.
Lawrence is closer to KC, but it doesn't have much going for it otherwise. I'd rather live in Lawrence, but if I have to spend an evening, I would rather be in Manhattan. Then there's Wichita, I guess, but it's a distant 3rd.

Has anybody on that podcast ever stepped foot in Manhattan, KS?
It's the aggy of Kansas. Not a "bad" college town, but not a particularly desirable location or experience.
It's probably the most desirable location in Kansas, for whatever that's worth.

TV contracts will be getting smaller and the super conferences will be cutting dead weight if they haven't already. No future generation will be as invested as Gen X in watching football moving forward. Kids don't participate at the level they used to. And only diehards are going to be willing to carry television service for the purpose of watching sports. We might eventually see a move toward regional conferences with most games not being televised outside of school or conference-run streaming services.

How in the world is our coaching staff not going ape shit on the sidelines to the side judge for the non-call? Somebody should have been all up the refs on that one. Not one, but 2 SJ missed it? That's horrible.
I felt that Sark took the pick up of the block in the back flag kind of soft. I saw he argued for about 2 seconds and then looked down at his sheet. I know as a coach you want to keep your focus on the game, but we were on D and Sark should have been in the ear of the refs through that next play.
Since I wasn't at the game, the staff may have been going ballistic but usually you can tell even on TV.Take away the big black line that isn't actually on the field and just look at the football. He's still offsides by a toe, but that's not that easy to see and not really all that blatant.

I think if there were a requirement for all series scheduled to be home and homes or neutral site games, everyone would stop scheduling the FCS schools and we would see better matchups. We are getting what we get because everyone wants to have 7 or 8 home games every year.
