    The NCAA is considering allowing five years of eligibility for players in all sports moving forward, per an NCAA official.

    Now that money has entered in how are they going to limit to 5 years? Restraint of trade. Who will file the first lawsuit.

    Very impressive win by the Irish. Their staff and players really have them rolling. Leonhard is a great athlete and leader at QB. Could it be a Buckeye/Domer final.

    Crazy half baked playoff alternative idea

    As I understand in the olde days historically the goal was to win a (small, regional) conference, and talking heads elected a “national champion” based on _____. And people were fine with that, for awhile. But, people wanted to really know who the best of the best was/is. If there were...

    Neal: With CFP expansion, P.J. Fleck and the Gophers should have loftier goals

    Would MN have been considered, with two quality losses but no really high quality wins? I suppose it depends on the other competitors in the beauty pageant. Even with the struggles to end the season who knows what happens in a tourney with a little R&R time. Maybe they are competitive...

The only question is why we don’t see consistent enforcement, people talking about lowering the crown, inches of the crown of the...

    Who Wins the Whole Enchilada?

    Changing to F1 but it doesn’t matter who wins the first lap or couple laps around the track. Finishing the race rewards driving skill, support staff skill, mechanical superiority with a little bit of luck. Finishing at all isn’t guaranteed. The points systems have some merit but sometimes a...

    Who Wins the Whole Enchilada?

    The predictions are looking a little shaky guys. If OSU wins out it will be the second time they win the natty when they would have been entirely left out of the bracket under the prior year system, the BCS in 2013 and 4 team field in 2023.

    Ohio State, so hot right now. I’d guess nobody saw anywhere near this type of outcome, including me. Figures number 1 ranked team would get spanked harder than any other thus far

    Yeah, ultimately Texas made more plays. ASU should have won by a couple FGs or more. Absolutely brutal 98 Vikings event for their fans, I’m sure.
