Did A&M sit all of their best players a year ago against Texas when they were 11–0 and a lock for the CFP? Or did Georgia when they were 10–1 facing off against Georgia Tech? How how about Ohio State when they played Michigan on the road while already 11–0?

The first National Championship from the 24-team playoff will be in New Orleans,.

As they should be. Reward the teams that earned the higher seeds, and keep fan engagement as high as possible. To hell with traveling to Birmingham, or Atlanta, or Jacksonville or even Dallas for these games before they in the final 8.

Conference championship games have officially gone the way of the dodo bird as well. They are no more.

I’ve really come around to the 24-team Playoff. If I’m going to watch Missouri and Iowa play every season in the Reliaquest Bowl, I’ll absolutely be seated to see them play in the first round of the CFP. Not to mention, it will keep top players from opting out and reduce the true number of meaningless bowl games. My hope is that they keep 1st and 2nd round CFP games on college campuses. We saw in 2024 just how electric that environment could get, both at Texas and around the country. The minute they move those games to ridiculous C-tier level bowl sites, they have lost me.

It was inevitable. I was against it for a while, but have come around to it.

no doubt!

There were some other factors at play for Pettijohn, but of course he would have to declare for the portal in the first place. If he does, I would watch it heavily.

Will help get the NC State alums excited. Nothing else is currently working when it comes to unlocking the financial interest.

Born on 3rd base, Ryan Day.

Littleton said postgame he knew he was going to go down before the goal line right when he picked the ball up. Said he was aware of the time remaining and wanted to kill as much time as possible with the Texas offense in the field, adding he knew they would convert to points and a two score lead.

Early morning snack. Had to get the @Gerry Hamilton special.

I don’t know if this pic does it Justice, but the fog this morning was really thick on the way to stadium.

Let’s have a great day, Mark!

Brrrrrrrrrr
