They’re both terrible products currently and have been for a while now.

The 12 team playoff starting next season should help a ton.

Nah, it will still be the same teams.

What they really need to do is significantly reduce the number of scholarships teams can give so teams like Alabama and Ohio State can't stock up.

The only thing I would change about the college game is getting rid of some of the bowl games. Every .500 school doesn't need to go to a bowl game.

It's so ridiculous. Being bowl eligible used to mean something. Now you have to be completely terrible not to go to a bowl so no one really cares outside of the playoffs. Draft prospects even sit out the NYE6 bowls. There should be maybe 12-15 bowl games tops. Legacy TV contracts are the only thing keeping all these bowls alive. Viewership ratings have to be terrible and most are attended at the level of a HS game.

If you're going to have a billion bowls at least get rid of conference time ins and make them regionally relevant. If you have say UNC and Tennessee playing in Charlotte it's going to be well attended. Have the same game in Phoenix and who's going?

This would help too but the portal is going to take care of some of that. You're not gonna have 4 and 5 star junior and senior third stringers. Those guys are gonna transfer and play somewhere.

    • Just like how he plays QB.  Little man had two very rude wakeup calls this week, busted his safe space all up. Let's give The Processor a chance to process that.  If they want him gone I wash my hands too, but I wouldn't do it for just bad play. Financials matter.  Depending on how it goes this year there may be a late season chance to try and showcase him for the offseason. 
    • He seems to be a well-liked, humble locker-room presence. If he's not a problem, what's the need to evict immediately? Why not let him develop under Canales without the pressure of being the figurehead. He was benched because he wasn't performing baseline NFL QB tasks. Pre-snap he was seeing ghosts and post-snap not even bothering with progressions. Even when "creating" outside the pocket, he failed to execute baseline NFL throws. The kid looked rattled. It's a combination of the actual hits, the media hits and his own personal frustration with failure. That said, the narrative  that he doesn't have the physical talent to play in the NFL is incomplete. Yes, he lacks physical talent when compared to the elite of the elite, but his size and arm strength are not reasons he can never be successful in the NFL. They just can't bail him out. The problem has been the lack of decisiveness. That's why you see him drifting backwards on his tip toes, constantly re-setting his feet rather than taking a conventional drop. You're never gonna get the velocity when constantly throwing off your back foot. The  mediocrity of his physical talent only compounds the issue. We gain very little by getting rid of him, especially in comparison to what we paid. His value will never be lower. Maybe some time out of the spotlight will help upgrade the Pentium Pro to at least a Sky Lake. Matt Cassell went for a 34th overall pick. Sam Darnold just threw 4 touchdowns in Minny for a 3-0 team. Hell, the 36 Y.O. Red Rifle has the media in a tizzy trying to learn the names of Panther's players to explain why the Raiders got molly-whopped. Maybe Canales is a QB whisperer. Maybe he can turn BY into an asset of greater value. We've already paid the cost.
    • I don't think Bryce is the type to try to divide a locker room, so I doubt its a distraction to keep him
