Not Good For The Game

College Football is being made more & more like the NFL. With high salaried coaches & high compensated athletes. The NFL has always been more about money than winning going back to the NFL & AFL days. If a NFL franchise stays in the Black with large stadium crowds, no pressure really to ever win. They are located only in the very largest population cities across this country to facilitate that. If the stadium crowds pit, they move the franchise. All about money. Certainly more about greed than passion with being involved in that.

It's the right plan but won't work until the early 2030s**

I'd bet ESPN has to sign off on any expansion or outside TV agreements.**

Interesting idea.....

But how does the ACC go about "maximizing the value of the brands it has."?
Maroon Baboon • 03/03/23 06:15 PM ET
Agree. And here's my solution to that.

Equal opportunity, not equal outcomes. **

Kicking Schools Out of Conferences May Cause a Firestorm of Fan Blow Back.
WarHog38 • 03/02/23 07:35 PM ET
Instead of kicking schools out, how about setting minimum standards for...

That Would Thin Them Out.

South Carolina.....
2hhoop3 • 03/03/23 12:50 PM ET
Have Heard That About South Carolina Fans Many Times**
WarHog38 • 03/03/23 12:57 PM ET
Some schools would have to reduce ticket prices
EDGEMAN • 03/03/23 12:47 PM ET
It's not unprecedented. Temple was kicked out of the Big East in 2002.**
tarheelblue • 03/02/23 08:53 PM ET
Post-modern expansionpaluza doesn't care about the passionate fans though.

Not Saying Article Responses Guarantee Vandy Permanent SEC Residency.

Imagine if VT sucked and your conference wanted to kick you out.
Big12 guy • 03/02/23 08:22 PM ET
The B12 should be happy since you no longer have Big TX
EDGEMAN • 03/03/23 06:23 AM ET
I Do Have Some Fear About Texas in the SEC
WarHog38 • 03/03/23 03:39 PM ET
If they did that
Big12 guy • 03/02/23 03:58 PM ET
Auto bids will likely be going away.**
Maroon Baboon • 03/02/23 04:23 PM ET
Not if the conferences can stay together, with the brands or not. **
Big12 guy • 03/02/23 04:25 PM ET
Hope you are correct. But I don't trust this brood of vipers in the P2 rn.
Maroon Baboon • 03/02/23 04:32 PM ET
Currently, they have two votes. It's the conferences that vote

CFP-12 is a given. I was talking about the next step of eliminating
