@RexVolcano I think BC has you beat there.

@rickjeff78 @Robert_Lonie Why is it better to have a minor league NFL than a sport actually fueled by its own unique thing? Are you just an idiot or can you not grasp this concept that people don’t want another NFL?

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@fbintheboot @HOOS13R @EnterFranklin26 @chrisfallica SOS and SOR are and they are both jn part determined by FPI. A system that currently has OU (5-4) over UCLA (9-0) due to last season success.

@StoolSMU flagship product. It’s all a big circlejerk with a clear conflict of interest yet the committee who supposedly picks on their own uses ESPN metrics. Also, conveniently, the committee decided to use a new metric strength of conference in the SEC’s best OOC year in like a decade.

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@StoolSMU predictive metrics performs awful. It’s not a good predictive tool or power rating. It’s the only tool that utilizes past-season success all with the goal of promoting the same SEC brands. ESPN owns the rights to the SEC and CFP, higher CFP rankings help viewership of their

@cfbdan @LGBrandonB @CF_Budge I actually prefer watching teams that top their regional conferences to advance to the national stage rather then rewatching the same SEC games again.

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@Michael99047304 @hamptonlax @nepechri Or he’s someone who doesn’t want to just watch minor league nfl and keep what makes cfb special. There’s already a product out there for you man just watch that.

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@Mostly_Infamous @_BurningRiver @nepechri @matt_hottytoddy I mean if you only care about the best of the best, I would recommend the NFL. CFB is about showcasing regional culture, pageantry, pride, and tradition through football games where the value comes through beating your regional opponents who you hate.

@NewtonJedi @FightMass is there a BC bar in Chicago?

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@brettrid3r @NewtonJedi Can it be community noted?

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@bbq_chicken_bc Word on the street is that CJ Carr is scared to throw against Charlie Comella.

@gavitron128 @tom_r_connor @ManhattanHell In 2024, Ohio State lost a game nicknamed “The Game” and then went on to a natty. Effectively neutering the impact of losing to their biggest rival in what should be their most important game. That sucks. Losing “The Game” should be the pure determinant factor in those teams year

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@gavitron128 @tom_r_connor @ManhattanHell Correct because the playoff made them less meaningful. No playoff, bowl games matter.

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@gavitron128 @tom_r_connor @ManhattanHell The regular season did not matter for winning a national championship. People didn’t care about winning a natty. They cared about beating the teams in their region, winning rivalry and conference trophies. If you only care about the national champ, watch the nfl.

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@tom_r_connor @gavitron128 @ManhattanHell with no national title consequences. College football is not about national champions. It’s about showcasing regionality and cultures on a football field.

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@tom_r_connor @gavitron128 @ManhattanHell Again, no player would opt out of a bowl game without the playoffs. Playoffs are bad and ruin the regionality of the sport. It makes people care more about making the playoff than hating your rival. It makes the sport less unique. BCS era was king. BSU over OU was a great game

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@PHISHpointO Why would people watch college football if it was just like the NFL but with worse players?

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@Gassongoblin422 I mean none of them went to college so makes sense

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@gavitron128 @tom_r_connor @ManhattanHell CFP era started in 2014 with first opt outs in 2016

[Pino’s Deli @PinosDeli]

@gavitron128 @tom_r_connor @ManhattanHell Thank you, this proves my point. Players started opting out starting in the CFP era in 2016
