There are people in the sports media business who ultimately believe that the TV executives should pick the CFP field. I've never experienced more confusion...

For those who missed it, Paul Finebaum was screaming on television today that the SEC should get 6 teams into the College Football Playoff....

[IUP24]

I actually think what you're seeing is this...

Because there are now actual "investments" into players (I'm talking about the revenue...

[IUP24]

I'm probably more tuned into the "new world" of college athletics and D1 football than I would say most on this board. I never anticipated or...

[IUP24]

I think Pitt's going to lose the football game on Saturday. ND is strong up front on both sides of the ball and Pitt's offensive line is a weakness on...

[IUP24]

Here's my position (apologies for the length here)... I've long said - and I think over the last few years, and even recently it's being proven true -...

[IUP24]

So a playoff elimination game between two teams that have played each other 74 times is a bad choice compared to two teams playing a game that's mostly...

[IUP24]

So Pitt hosting Notre Dame, given the factors I laid out above, is not a good option?

You'll have to really explain that one to me. Again,...

[IUP24]

I'm curious where you would have chosen otherwise. College Gameday hasn't been to Pittsburgh in 20 years (also a Pitt/ND game). ND has won 7 straight....

I've watched a lot of ACC football this year. The favorable thing for Pitt is that the games against GT and Miami, while both extremely challenging games,...

Ross Dellenger was a guest on a podcast a week or two ago discussing how television ratings are driving decisions amongst college sports more now than...

[IUP24]

I agree with all of that.

I'm personally not a fan of Chris Fowler, so I like Rece Davis on there as the host. Herbstreit is good and I...

[IUP24]

You completely missed the entire point of what I was saying.

"Growing the sport" perhaps was bad vernacular for the context, but...

[IUP24]

The entire purpose of College Gameday was always to go around the country to grow the sport and showcase other places, traditions, fanbases, stories,...

[IUP24]

Just like Texas Tech throttled unbeaten BYU (also a double digit underdog)? Gameday going to different locations with cool stories to showcases different...

[IUP24]

Of all of the stream services which create their own tv shows and movies, Netflix is far and away the best of the bunch. I don't think it's particularly...

[IUP24]

With ESPN owning the SEC broadcast rights, getting a game that is considered a primetime slot will only ever be on ESPN2 or the ACC Network unless the...

[IUP24]

I'm not getting into this in any level of depth (I personally don't care).

This is a pretty massive thing amongst the SRU contingent though....

[IUP24]

Should’ve played at the Homer Dome LOL...

[IUP24]

There's a big contingent of IUP folks in Columbus. There's a decent sized group planning on making trip on Saturday (I can't make the trip unfortunately...
