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.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
