True on the rabid, unhinged fan bases (though Texas Tech is a Big12 school). But the B1G has a lot more alumni, with a lot more money than pretty much any southern school outside the state of Texas, or maybe UGA. Someone posted that Ohio State literally has three times the number of living...

Bold is 100% true. You are an outlier (and that's a good thing BTW!) but a lot of fandom is passed down generationally.

Do you really believe this is enforced?

This isn't the reason people care at all. It's tradition. Plain and simple. People care because that fandom has been passed down for generations. It's the exact same reason that virtually all startup professional leagues fail no matter the level of skilled players. People are loyal to their...

I'm aware of that, but they should probably be a D3. Their overall athletic program seems more to fit the UMAC than the NSIC.

🤣🤣🤣

If someone is willing to give him the cash, yes. There's no cap in college football, at least yet. There are a number of guys making way more in college than they would as an NFL rookie.

It's not an official classification. All the conferences are D1 football bowl subdivision. The P4/G5-6 is a media creation.

There's literally no such thing as the G5.

Who chooses the rankings? Certainly not anyone who has a financial stake in them .

But those are big brands durrr. TV ratings durrrr. SEC durrrr.....

The ROI is entertainment. 2 million is fuckyou money for a guy like Cuban, or Campbell or Phil Knight. It's like you or I paying a hundred bucks for a Gopher hoodie to wear to a game. And for all the people bitching and moaning about pay to play, please google Sam Gilbert.

I understand why it was founded. But that's not really the case today.

Do you have any proof of this, even anecdotal?

I was switching back and forth between Oregon-JMU, ISU-Villanova, and Bears-Packers all evening. Since I detest NDSU and have regularly made fun of their delusional fan base, you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. But that should have been clear to anyone who read your...

This is the way.

What team scored the most points and put up the most yards against Oregon this year?

True. But wouldn't NIL still exist at lower levels, meaning players could still get a bag of cash?

No. The Pioneer League is a group of D1 schools that choose not to offer football scholarships. UST wasn't kicked out of D3 football. Morehead State has always been D1, but just chose to not offer scholarship football. Austin Peay was the same until they went back to offering scholarships...

Well, Notre Dame should have qualified for the playoffs.
