Tex85 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 1 hour ago, JohnnyFootball said: College Football needs a massive correction.Β Or rather, several massive corrections.Β NIL is a big one. Those loopholes need to be patched fast (and I say that as a fan of a team who no doubt benefited greatly from NIL this recruiting cycle). Otherwise, it's going to make the problem of it "always being the same 5-6 teams competing" even worse.Β Bowl games are another big one. There are far too many bowl games and in late August, ESPN is already talking about "Who are the 4 in?!" and rattling on and on about "meaningless bowl games". Ergo, players opt out, fan interest dies, and teams play in front of largely empty stadiums. Teams should not go to a bowl because they won 6 games. Using A&M as an example, the only 2 bowls A&M should've gone to in the last 15+ years are the Cotton in 2012 and the Orange in 2020. I feel like a team needs to have a big/special season to go to a Bowl.Β after the past 5 years at Arkansas i could not be any happier for them after winning a meaningless bowl game. was the outback bowl a consolation trophy maybe to some but to a majority of those kids that were the laughing stock of the sec for a couple years it was a huge accomplishment and one that they never will forget. i guess it would have meant a little more if it was a new years 6 game or whatever but who cares i'd rather watch a bad football game against a couple 6-6 teams than basketball any day.Β Β Β 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkansas beating Texas, A&M, LSU, Miss St, and playing Alabama close are all awesome signs of improvement that the team and Coach Pittman have to hang their hats on.Β 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
