    Poll: Where are you as a fan for current college sports?

    When you combine the transfer portal - NIL with the rule changes that are heavily weighted to benefit offensive play (far too easy to score) the game has become almost unwatchable for me. It's a cheap imitation of what it used to be, and media try to sell it as the same game....it's not.

    Michigan player offered $1.75 mil to transfer

    Here's a crazy thought.... Overall, people seem to be more supportive of their regional choice in university athletics than they are in a professional team. There are places where the professional sports are more popular.........but if something happens to the student portion of it, could this...

    Is the quality of College Football suffering as a result of the transfer portal/NIL?

    Yes (this and gameplay rule changes), and I can't wait for it to burn down the current structure.

    Game Thread: Early bowl games no one cares about but will watch anyway catchall

    That comment wasn't meant to be an endorsement for any tax service. I personally have used Turbo Tax for maybe 15-20 years with no issues......the comment was directed toward no one selecting a tax service based on bowl game sponsorship..... & yes....we all probably understand the concept of...

    Game Thread: Early bowl games no one cares about but will watch anyway catchall

    In addition to that, I don't understand how these bowl sponsors justify the expense of sponsorship...?? Seems like another waste of a company's resources. Are you really going to use TaxSlayer over Turbo Tax to do your taxes because they sponsored a meaningless bowl game?

    Game Thread: Early bowl games no one cares about but will watch anyway catchall

    I'm seriously amazed that the crowd at this bowl game (or any bowl game that isn't in the CFP) seems to be fairly good size.....with opt-outs and the irrelevancy of the non-CFP bowls (that helps lead to the large numbers of opt-outs)...I don't think I could justify the time & expense. Seems like...

    An Evaluation of National Championships 1936-2013

    I'm always careful to not use the word CLAIMED when referring to recognized national championships. I typically use the word(s) ACCEPTED instead. CLAIMED seems to imply that Alabama has simply & arbitrarily chosen the title and year of winning. As an example, "Alabama has accepted 18 awarded...

    Transfer Portal 2023-2024...

    Tons of great things to do vs sitting and watching football all weekend, every weekend. Over the past 3-5 years, I have become simply a casual observer (& I'm a guy that used to have a hard time sleeping on Friday nights before any Alabama game due to the anticipation/excitement). Looking back...

    BREAKING NCAA President : Time to start paying athletes

    Good... I'm all for it. The quicker this whole thing blows up, the better IMO. It can't get here quick enough. I think I'm only still keeping an eye on college football to see how it plays out....

    When and why did you become a Crimson Tide fan?

    Great uncle & uncle played their in the 40's & 60 's.....pretty easy decision after that (& I wasn't given much of a choice..;).).

    Would FSU without Travis had beaten Georgia last weekend?

    After watching FSU in the last few weeks against North Alabama, Florida, & Louisville, there is a long list of teams that would curb-stomp FSU. Michigan Washington Texas Alabama Georgia Ohio State Oregon Penn State Ole Miss

    Playoff Predictor scenarios

    Regardless of how this year turns out, I would take the BCS formula determining the playoff over any playoff committee.

    How long do we remain gatekept by Texas?

    It would be great if college football used the old BCS formula/ranking system to determine the playoff teams & seeding.

    News Article: 'Dixieland Delight' writer hears song at Alabama's Bryant-Denny Stadium for the first time

    Agreed 110%, It makes zero sense for Alabama to have this song played at their games. I personally hate it.....

    Pick Your Preferred Way to Win - Offense or Defense???

    Because of the rule changes that always favor the offenses, you have to win with offense now. Unfortunately, there is no choice. I personally love defensive domination, but it is gone the way of the dinosaurs. I somewhat despise the way that the gameplay has gone of the last 10+ years. It has...

    Utah NIL: new Ram 1500 for all fb players

    JessN: A change is going to come -- one way or another

    For the past 10-12 years I have thought, "Why did I ever care so much about the accomplishments of OTHER men?". Looking back it seems like it was a colossal & meaningless waste of time.....

    REPORT: Nick Saban was ‘riding (Scott) Cochran mercilessly’ leading up to Alabama departure

    Mike Griffith is a complete homer. He was the same way when he was in Knoxville covering Tennessee. He plays to the low information fanbases.
