Thank God teams like Oregon won’t be left out of the chance to show they can compete with teams like Georgia in the expanded Playoff format.

LOL.  This is why College Hoops > than College Football imo.

just like every other year, 4 or 5 teams that can compete, 2 of those 5 a lot better than the rest. Georgia vs Alabama again this year.

Yeah.  They look light years ahead after one week.  OSU looks pedestrian

Can’t wait to watch QB play at the highest level like we’re seeing from this Notre Dame QB in the Playoffs in a couple years.

Iowa winning 7-3 by scoring a FG and two safeties is the most Iowa thing ever.

Iowa could really use an outsider to come-in and bring some new ideas to the offense. The problem... Ferentz's son is the both the OC/QB coach. When you allow nepotism, you deserve poor results.

Decisive win for The Badgers

Enjoyed seeing Ohio State defeat Notre Dame. Any loss by Notre Dame is something to be savored and enjoyed.

Winning is overrated. The only time it is really important is in surgery and war.

Right, a 38 point shutout, averaging over 8 yards per play isn’t decisive.

I thought that game was over after muffed punt.  Every time I turn a game off, something stupid happens.  Those who went on the over/under were probably soiling themselves

Was glad to see Florida And Florida State win this weekend against quality opponents . Hopefully   The Gators and Seminoles can rebuild their programs to be more competitive. College Football is better when it’s not just two teams a year that dominate .

College football is almost always dominated by 2-3 teams a season.

With the new transfer rules, NILs and football conference consolidation (with media $), does this open the door for more parity?

Every analisys I've seen of this say the exact opposite.

Some say FCS will see expansion due to the greater lack of parity in FBS.

Yessir. All the angst over NIL and free transfers and realignment is good, clean fun … but the simple fact is that college football has been ruled by VERY few programs for years and years - even back in the good old days when athletes were indentured servants.

I mean, even freakin’ ND has been a non-factor for a couple decades now.

The athletes (pro or college) are still 'indentured servants'. If you mean they enter into an agreement to do certain work for a defined period of time in exchange for goods or services (the definition of indentured servant).

I mean, Hawaii was left in disarray last year and entered the season with a first year HC who would be a totally uninspiring hire if he wasn't a Hawaii legend.

Then they lost their first 2 games to average teams by a combined score of 112-27.  And Michigan actually has an offense this year.  Line might actually be a bit soft to be honest  :o

That's amazing ... though I did just Google the largest point spread in college football history, and it supposedly was Florida State -70.5 vs Savannah State in 2012.

FSU seemed well on its way to covering, up 55-0 in the third quarter, but there was severe lightning in the area and the game was called. How'd you like to lose a bet for that reason?
