NCAA GDT: The 2024-25 EXPANDED College Football Playoff: the New Revolution

[Tony Romo]

Man I really feel bad for the RT, #56, looks like his name might be Williams? He was slow, maybe hesitated a split second, to get out on Sawyer and then just whiffed. I don’t know that kid or what kind of person he is, but I would understand it if his stomach hurt for like a week.

Cam Williams! he just came back from injury.

Cam Williams! he just came back from injury.

I’m sure he made a great effort to do so. I didn’t watch the whole game so I don’t know if he played well or what but ooof that play. I fee for him.

Should move it so North it's played in Toronto.

Play it in Canton

That 15 yards by their TE for taunting following his stiff arm….

But you can’t lose 7 yards when you are at the 1 yard line.

I thought money made it unfair though?

It does for the most part. Yes there will be some upsets but those top spending schools will always be there in the end.
Teams like Buffalo, Liberty, Jacksonville St or Marshall ever get a fair chance at a championship cause they don't spend the money or are a name brand school

None of those schools are in this to play on that level.

Yet til Liberty had that one game cancelled, they were in the conversation for the playoff.

It's crazy to me how many love the upsets in March Madness but for football they want the blueblood schools in it.

dude Liberty lost 45-6 to Oregon last year.

CFB and CBB aren't the same, were these random mid majors have 4-5 year guys. this is comparing apples to oranges.

Liberty lost to Kennesaw State.

2-10

And OSU lost to a crappy Michigan team.

I know I will never win this argument as many here love seeing the blueblood schools at the top.

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

OSU by 14+ v ND

But if ND pulls off the upset and wins the title, Marcus Freeman will be the Ohio State HC if I had to bet in very short order. Day HAS to win the National title to keep his job especially in a year where they lost to a dogshit Michigan team

No one thinks this lol, they deserved to make the playoffs but they also got their ass kicked by a way better team. Same boat as SMU where you can build on the season but you clearly didn't belong with the top dogs.

Just saying

It’s not even seeing blueblood schools on top, it’s practical realities of college football. Ohio State also beat Penn State, Indiana and Nebraska when they were 5-3, and lost by 1 at Oregon who they shitsteamed anyways.

Only way Day is leaving now is if the NFL is calling to him

... this is an article about schools NIL funding for the athletic department. I can bet a lot of money, that Texas did not spent more.

Like Oklahoma State is ranked above Ohio State in the article, come on man.

Good win.

Article is based on booster donations from 2005 to 2022, so the rankings predate NIL.

Not surprised OK State is near the top either, didn’t T Boone Pickens pledge $1B to their athletic department?

 

[Nogatco Rd]

Texas spent more

College football's top 50 programs ranked by NIL efforts

You should read the article. The headline doesn’t match the content whatsoever. That’s a list of public universities ranked by booster donations in the 17 year period from 2005-2022.

They lost all credibility with me when they used the phrase “donor funs”

not sure what you mean by “fair chance?”

While those teams made it, other than Arizona State, they got blown out by the college's who spent more. The only team that wasn't on that list is Notre Dame

ND wasn’t on the list bc they are a private school. That was a list of public universities.

I love upsets too.. but there is way more variance in basketball and in college basketball in particular, than there is in football..

the liberty’s of the world all have a path to the CFP now, not sure what they have to complain about? And IIRC weren’t they in the mix until the lost to the worst team in D-1A, Kennesaw state?

 

[No Fun Shogun]

I hate Ohio State, but I hope they absolutely destroy Notre Dame.

 

[KallioWeHardlyKnewYe]

The haves win a lot more in sports than the have nots. That's not exclusive to college football. That's just sports.

For as great as March Madness is major programs are still often the ultimate champion.

A system that at least lets smaller teams in is better than everything before which was almost completely closed off to non-traditional programs.

Would be kinda cool if Ohio State won, 2 weeks later they host the stadium series.

There is a LARGE % of Blue Jacket fans who really dislike Ohio St. There is no doubt the team would be there and they would absolutely hate every second of it.

 

[DueDiligence]

The national championship comes down to 4 teams that have great O and D lines and very average QB talent. You could take any one of the top 25 QBs in college football put them in the same circumstances and the results would be the same.
