Conference championship games are great!  And essential in this system. Why would you get rid of them?

Never mind.

More games! Give us more, more, more!

And we care DEEPLY about the safety of our student-athletes, no matter what anyone says!

I would be very surprised if any player is too upset by this. A greater opportunity to play for a championship. It’s not like a random non-conference game is being added or pre-season. Plus, as others have said. It’s only a few teams impacted.

Stop being obtuse.  Players could want to be compensated and ALSO want a larger opportunity to play and compete for championships. 

It seems to me you're the one crafting the argument that players are vehemetly against this and are being forced to play against their will.  Like playing for championships isn't one of the core reasons they play.

I personally know about 8-10 college football players that played at the D-1 level within the last decade that would think your argument is silly and doesn't at all speak for them.  You act like players are boycotting seasons until NLI or pay to play is established.

Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly eliminated any drama about who will be under center for the Fighting Irish's Sept. 5 season opener at Florida State, when he announced Saturday that Wisconsin transfer Jack Coan will begin the season as the team's starting quarterback. Coan led the Badgers to a 10-4 record in 2019 with appearances in the Big Ten title game and Rose Bowl before missing the 2020 season with a broken foot.

ND with a former Badger quarterback.  So much to dislike.

Big 10 announced this morning that it won't reschedule games if a team has a COVID outbreak, and instead that team will forfeit.

Glad OSU won. It is in MU’s best interest that Minny football program is suppressed , as we tend to compete with them for basketball recruits .
Winning is overrated. The only time it is really important is in surgery and war.

Neither Penn St or Whisky look particularly good to me.  Except the transfer RB on Wisconsin.

Maybe it's me but a good team would be rolling Wisconsin right now.  Neither of these teams will do much this season.

With a better QB penn state would be up a ton. So many blown coverages in the 2nd half that the Clifford has either missed the WR or under has underthrown the WR letting Wisconsin at least catch up.

I for one would have built my schedule differently to build up the illusion of having CFP hopes.

It looks like Whisky will escape with the win.  Pemn St.  missed a 24 yrd FG and an extra point.
