from where I'm sitting, it's no different than the

70's and 80's. Still the same brands making most of the money, with monopolies on the top bowls, playing meager OOC schedules. The only difference today is the consolidation of the brands in the P2. NIL is just a legalized "80's model. The transfer portal is the big difference here. Attach credit hours and graduation to the transfer portal, and the problem is fixed. Then recruits look at schools differently, and can not transfer on a whim. The idea that the B12 leftovers, most of the ACC, and the mid to low level BIG and SEC schools will ever compete with blue blood money is just plain silly. VT doesn't have a problem with Ohio State making the big bucks, they have a problem with the Rutgers of the world getting more money than them. it's time to end the doom and gloom hoping that some other entity will fix things for the B12 or most of the ACC. It's time to put on your big boy pants, get a coach, recruit a dedicated quarterback, and make the playoffs.

Fox writes article about 24 team playoff, guessing they would televise some**

If they staged a 24-team playoff, 19 of the teams would be P2.**

Maybe, but so what? Without an opportunity to beat

Always thought it was weird Fox didn’t try to split th playoffs, regretting
Stech 10/30/25 08:05 AM ET
24 games is ridiculous. First Fox puppet Petitti brought this up

If I pay you $20M if we go to 24 teams, are you okay with it?**
Stech 10/29/25 04:25 PM ET
$20M per team for each game in the first two rounds, or...
EDGEMAN 10/30/25 10:10 AM ET
I was saying 20M to him personally if they went to 24, many are against
Stech 10/30/25 10:43 AM ET
No as will be less regular season revenue
HouClone 10/29/25 10:56 PM ET
More teams in the hunt
Big12 guy 10/30/25 11:20 AM ET
Yeah, I can see this. Overall, still a watered-down regular season
HouClone 10/30/25 03:24 PM ET
Na, it's the 3 loss teams that will make it from
Big12 guy 10/30/25 03:45 PM ET
Admittedly 24 is a lot, but the money they will make, will be a lot too, so
Stech 10/29/25 11:25 PM ET
Show me the money? **

Stech 10/29/25 06:40 PM ET
I really hate byes. I wish 8 or 16 was the magic number.**
Victor Tango 10/29/25 01:46 PM ET
8 should have been the number

You can't put the lid back on the playoff thing. Since we
