Thought I would start a thread for general college football talk to give us a spot to discuss things that occur outside of the team specific threads.
Biggest disappointment so far this season? Heisman House commercials. Well actually, I've only see the one with Mayfield that they repeat endlessly. It wasn't good once.
With Texas beating OK St, the B12 is all but out of the playoff
How is it responsible not to play? College teams have 80-100 guys in uniform each week, just take out the 8-10 who test positive and play the dang games. College teams are 3-4 deep at every position. Big ten is a joke how they've handled this.Not a fan that the Big 10 is letting Wisconsin decide not to play the Nebraska game. Violated no COVID policies and should be a forfeit. They made the responsible decision to not play, but basically decided unilaterally.

It's been reported, way down in the fine print of course, that 80% of the positive cases are asymptomatic. These kids are not even getting sick and we're cancelling games??It's responsible to not gather in a group of 80-100 when viral cases are spreading through your locker room. I didn't think that was hard to get.

I'm no longer concerned with positive tests. We started with the narrative 8 months ago with severe illness and deaths. Now we're only talking about positive test results?
So go hide in our houses and not come out until when? 2021? 2022? I've got some news for you, EVERYONE DIES!!! 7,500 Americans die daily! 2.8 million annually.Nobody cares what you're concerned about. You obviously have failed at this entire concept.
More cases = More deaths. Even at a low mortality rate. It's not just the players getting COVID, they spread it to others, who then spread it to others, and so on.

Question: Do you guys think schools will have a longer leash with coaches this year based on uncertain financial times? When you look at what some departments are losing would it be great optics to pay huge buyouts and then presumably pay a new coach the same or more as the previous?
Depends upon the school; where the boosters basically pay for the coach, no; where there isn't that support, yes and where the SJW's are supreme-outrage as usual.

Glad to put that Jurkovec vs Book argument to rest. Book has really stepped up his game the past few weeks. He’ll never be elite, but he’s no longer a liabilityND trying hard to self-destruct.
The ND OC made the offer since he was recruiting him during his time at Boise St. Book has already lead them to the playoffs, but if he can win a playoff game, then he might move up in the unofficial QB rankings.Where is he in the scheme of things? Washington St and ND, he had to have something attracting those looks? Book is in the ND history books and will be remembered long after those who kept him on the bench. The Clemson game will be talked with the all-time. If he can be the reliable guy that leads them to play-offs, frosting.
It’s modern College Football, there are no more shutdown DefensesThere are some awful defenses in the SEC. No way Trask and Mac put up those numbers in the B1G.
