Reiterate, it's time for something different in College Football if NIL is to continue (which it should). Yes, I know it will NEVER happen, but...
Just make it a U23 pro league. There are currently 128 FBS teams and 133 FCS teams. Divide FBS in to 4 32 team "leagues", each made up of 4 8 team divsions, divided roughly by geography. Teams play each other teams in their division once (7 games), and can play any other team in the league with their other 4-5 games (which are treated like non-conference games currently) The top team in each division, plus four wild-cards (determined by highest poll rankings) advance to an 8 team championship for the league. Promotion and Relgation: The 8th place team in each division is relegated to a lower division (except in the lowest divsion of course). The 7th Place team division plays the quarter final loser in the playoffs for the league below in a promotion/relegation game. So, this is how it'd look: League 1: The four division winners and four wildcards play for the National Football Championship. Last place team gets relegated to League 2, 7th place team plays League 2 QF losers to determine who's in League 1 and who's in League 2 League 2: Four Division winners and four wildcards play in an 8 team tournament. Quarter-Finals winners are promoted to League 1, losers will play the 7th place League 1 teams for promotion. 8th place relegated to League three, 7th place will play QF losers of League 3 for promotion/relegation League 3: Four Division winners and four wildcards play in an 8 team tournament. Quarter-Finals winners are promoted to League 2, losers will play the 7th place League 2 teams for promotion. Last place teams fall to league 4, 7th place plays Division 4's QF losers to stay in League 3 League 4: League 2: Four Division winners and four wildcards play in an 8 team tournament. Quarter-Finals winners are promoted to League 3, QF losers play the 7th place team to try to go up. As new teams get filtered into FBS, the League 4 divisions will expand to 9-10 team divisions.. after 8 new teams join, then a new fifth League 4 division is formed (and then start to look in expanding) This allows teams to be judged against teams of roughly the same caliber, but gives a number of slots to keep traditional rivals. If teams want to book games against lower level teams, sure.. but remember, the voters may judge you for it, if you don't play top competition and don't win your division, you're at the mercy of the voters to get into the playoffs (which are the only way to get promoted)

This one is going to take awhile to get over. I'm not sure I have ever been so stunned by a relatively meaningless game. Neal actually showed some emotion at the post game press conference, so that was interesting. If we don't win Homecoming over a very beatable Okla St, the hot seat is going to be back up to a 10 in a hurry. |

I didn't like the hire from the beginning. I think he was hired mostly because he was the anti-dana. He was clean, organized, well spoken, and was big on team culture. However, I was willing to give him a chance. He's still the same coach he was in the Sun Belt, nothing has really changed, and that's the problem. What wins in the Sun Belt doesn't necessarily work at the P5 level. Inefficient ball control, shorten the game, hope the other team makes mistakes, and then squeeze out a win just isn't a very good recipe for success in the Big 12. The 4-1 start this year included a 3 touchdown loss to Penn State, a win over Duquesne, a win over Pitt and the worst P5 quarterback (who's now a TE) by a mile, and a win over Texas Tech and their backup QB. The TCU win was nice, but Sonny Dykes also just shit the bed for that game. I'm not sure I've ever seen a coach look as clueless on the sidelines as he did and I've been watching 5 years of Neal Brown. What it comes down to is Brown is an awful offensive coach, which as an air raid guy is one hell of an accomplishment. The way he wants to win goes against everything analytics have shown is a way to win on a consistent basis, while claiming to be an analytics guy. Dana outcoached him last night, which was a massive gut punch. Watching Dana, with a far less talented team, figure out our weak spots as the game went on and continually attack them while Brown tried to get cute with tons of motion, etc was embarrassing. He was forced to open things up in the 2nd half or Houston was going to run away with it, but the lesson he probably got from that was to back to what he's comfortable with and just pound Donaldson and Greene up the middle until he's forced to do something else and then hope that works. |

The catch of the year just happened on a Saturday at 2 in the morning (eastern) in Colorado-Stanford.

I was wondering if anyone else was watching this. Crazy CU was up 29-0 at halftime and Stanford out scores them 36-7 in the second half. 43 all in OT. This is like the old WAC conference games in the 1980s. |

Wow looks like Colorado blew it. That is a terrible loss for CU. They really will need to fix their line and oline for next year. I am not sure they win another game this year.

I mean, what the hell is the defender supposed to do in that situation. And you KNOW despite that, it's going to be eating him for days to come.. he'll wake up from a nightmare, where the receiver's arms turn into tenteacles and wrap around his head to catch the ball.

I agree with Deion that these late night games are ridiculous. More of the country should get to see these implosions while we're awake.

Keon Coleman just made a leaping 1-handed catch that was absolutely amazing.
And then fumbled on the next play, of course. Edit: Here it is.

I know it's a no-win situation for coaches of teams that are overmatched, but I don't understand not trying to win and going for the semi-blowout score loss. Dino Babers today is coaching for a kinda-bad loss instead of 35+ point loss.
FSU is up on Syracuse 24-3 about 4 minutes left in the 3rd, Syracuse has it 4th and 6 at about the FSU 15. Immediately sends out the FG team, yet somehow still gets a delay penalty (may have been some hedging on the headset but they clearly pulled the offense immediately). Kicker shanks it. So, you don't even get the 3 points that wouldn't have done anything to help you win anyway. Then, FSU is up 27-3 12 minutes left in the 4th, 4th and 7 right around the 50. YOU HAVE TO SCORE OTHERWISE THE GAME IS OVER. They punt. WHY? And guess what? FSU scored anyway. 34-3 now with just under 10 minutes left.

What a crazy sequence. Tip ball gets picked by Vandy, and it looked like an easy pick 6 until the defender got inside the 5 and Carson Beck comes at him like a bullet. He lowered his shoulder and nailed him to knock him out of bounds. Unfortunately the defender got his leg caught and might have ripped his knee.

I know one team was 2-3 entering the game, and the other was 4-2, but seeing Rutgers beating Michigan St is kinda "my how the mighty have fallen" in my head.

I've watched more than my fair share of shitty QBs over a long lifetime but I swear I'm pretty sure that Joe Milton is in the top five of "guys I fucking HATE to watch"
He's like watching a North Korean missile. It may fire but nobody knows where the fuck it's going to land.

I suppose if you justify everything by saying "we play aggressive" that it's supposed to mask a bunch of stupid decisions? What say you, Lanning?

Not counting channel flipping, so far today we've seen 5 quarters of football as our primary game (UT-A&M and now Miami-UNC)
In those five quarters we've seen 33 penalties for 323 yards ... and could have easily added another 10 and 100+ if the refs were remotely capable.

Caleb Williams looks terrible. No discipline, bad footwork, throwing the ball up for grabs. Yikes.

Okay, last week Cristobal made the dumbest coaching call in at least two decades.
Just now the DC runs onto the field for no actual reason, giving UNC a 4th & 1 conversion via penalty. I don't think it's unreasonable to feel like drug testing the coaching staff in Miami is appropriate.
