When LSU wins the SEC Championship Game next week, "they" should cancel the National Championship game, becasue there is no need to go through a popularity contest just to plug in one, of 5-6 teams, simply to put on a dog and pony show.
LSU wins and they Cancel the National Championship game... and if "they" dont like it, then "they" need to fkg start a college football playoff system all fkn ready. They have playoffs in Div 2, and it works quite well. Colleg Basketball March madenss playoffs are legendary....
I have been waiting, and to this second, no one has offered a good reason to not have a colleg football playoff system.
Would you watch the NFL if there were no playoffs? if they just had popularity contests to plug teams into meaningless "bowl games"? Who gives a fk about a bowl berths?... what is the point of meaningless bowl games..What a scam. The kings clothes are a sham. Time for a change.
Make the usual bowls into payoff dates and lets have some fun.

All NCAA sports are basically a money making machine . Especially Division 1 , those athletes cannot be attending many classes . If they pass it's only because of collusion on the parts of the coaches and their professors . Of course there are exceptions to the rule . I love hearing when an athlete who came out early goes back to school to complete their education . They'll never need the diploma as they really should not need any income after a career in the world of professional sports .
Yeah,but they covered the spread last night against the Steelers.Quote

I dont even think the Chiefs could bet LSU this year.
1 TD in the last 45 Chiefs possessions? What a debacleaster this team is, the whole front office/all coaches needs to be fired.

thats not true. most of the big name programs have tutors go with them on the trips and get extra time to complete things. do you really think coach k pulls strings and gets the duke players good grades they didn't earn?

You mean Satan? of course he would.
I wouldnt put anything past Satan...
In all seriousness I think the schooling/grading
of college athletes is a mix of what both of you say. You are both correct.
Pretty impressiveQuote

certain programs/coaches aren't going to risk their job/schools reputation. duke usually has at least 1 all academic player every season which means they need like at least a 3.7 GPA out of a possible 4.0

I'm betting against my Patriots this week . 21 points is a lot to give .
Indianapolis + 21 over New England
Hoping Belichick has a heart and doesn't run it up on the Colts
Belichick have a heart? Yeah that'll be the day. Pats win by 50. Niners win by 20.Quote

Good job Niners but that is the equivalent of 3rd place in other divisions.

NFC West isn't the worst division in the NFL, at least not this year. This year the NFC East is ridiculously bad. The Dallas Cowboys are leading that division with a 7-5 record, and their record makes them look better than they actually are. They've only played 4 games against teams with a winning record. And they lost to Arizona today, who are one of the dogs of the NFC West.
