Why no NCAA football love?
« on: September 11, 2014, 05:39:25 PM »
How come there isn't a college football thread?  I enjoy college more than the NFL.  :)

That is all.

I don't care for college football... I'll occasionally watch them and their bowl games.

The thing is, it is hard to root for any particular team, and that's related to where I live (college football is generally irrelevant).

What state do you reside in?  All football here in Texas is obviously big and there are so many people who are strong supporters of either their local schools or former alma maters.  I would almost say college football is bigger than the NFL around here locally primarily because the NFL teams we have aren't and haven't been good for a while.

In Massachusetts, the major sports team gets the noise, even if some are down this season. I do not care for Boston College... especially when they kinda underperform often (see Matt Ryan, and Matt Hasslebeck before him). So, I can't really get excited at all.

I can imagine in MASS your Patriots and Red Sox get all the attention.  And don't give up on BC, they will be good again.  college football goes in a cycle it seems.  Take my Aggies, the past 20 years have been a roller coaster.  LOL

I don't give the NCAA any love, because, well, I don't like the NCAA and its exploitation of those it employs. I'm also not too much of a fan of teams shoving the bands down our collective throats, or their "playoff" system in place up until this year. Seriously, the BCS is a sham.

If this new playoff system they're trying actually does something to reward the good teams, then I might give it another shot. (Don't hurt me!)

Yes, it's corruption and exploitation. The BCS system is not really a true representation of anything fair.. at least when you compare it to the March Madness brackets. There's money to be made, but the BCS Championship games prior to this current "revision" is more or less a sham when you really think about it.
