sounds like stadium pulse is gonna be brutal in College Football 26 there’s gonna be enhanced Stadium Pulse effects, including a more intense camera shake, new heads-up display visuals, and clock distortion that simulates the high pressure of playing as a visitor in hostile territory Rivalry games, the College Football Playoff, and other high-stakes matchups are now even more affected by Stadium Pulse When you’re on the road, you’ll need Confidence & Composure to help counteract the rattling environment there’s new situations and stadium-specific music, fight songs, and dynamic commentary EA’s claims the new presentation reflects the importance of each game in the context of your season there will be more of your school’s unique pageantry, traditions, and sounds with new PA tracks, including Metallica’s ā€œEnter Sandman,ā€ 160 new school- specific chants, new mascots, and band music also, your ears are saved, they’re getting rid of the drums in the menus and replacing them with marching band covers and 15 fight songs

The Big 12 has decided to not sell an ownership stake to private equity, commissioner Brett Yormark told @FOS in Orlando. Selling conference naming rights is also 'on pause,' if not completely off the table. More details from our conversation ā¤µļø frontofficesports.com/brett-…

Great news for Mike Leach fans: College Football Hall of Fame will lower win percentage in 2027 for coaches from 60 to 59.5 percent, which will make the former Mississippi State/Texas Tech/Washington State coach eligible to join the hall

During a call earlier today, Big Ten ADs discussed the 5 AQ + 11 At-large CFP model under consideration in the SEC, sources tell @YahooSports. Many ADs say they would not support such a model if the SEC remains at eight conference games. The Big Ten plays nine conference games.

Fearing an Indiana-OKC Finals, the NBA is considering a plan where the Lakers and Celtics would get twice as many entries in the Playoffs going forward. And a double bye. And twice as much of the postseason revenue.

It’s coming.
When do you think we have a 32-team College Football Playoff? Two years? The argument for the best four-loss team will be great banter.

CFP 5+11 model draws interest from SEC coaches… an alternative option to highly publicized AQs. Sankey said ā€œ.. at the coaching level, the question is, why wouldn’t that be fine? Why wouldn’t we do that?ā€ My story with ⁦@PeteThamel⁩ here … espn.com/college-football/st…

The Big 12's annual spring meetings (this week) should be the last without ACC executives in an adjoining conference room. It's getting heated at the P4 level and a united front for the two leagues ... everything short of a merger ... should be on the table. --->

The SEC hasn't won a football championship in two seasons after winning six of the first nine playoff years ... and now the system is broken and needs fixing. lmao

The CFP stuff has gotten pretty silly tonight. I’ll just add this: Any format of 12+ teams will include the teams that are supposed to win it all. Beyond that, I’d prefer a nationally representative sample vs. almost all from two leagues. We used to embrace regionality in CFB.

Said something negative. Now will say something positive. This is fair from DeBoer. Alabama at least schedules non-conference games, unlike many others.
Alabama plays Florida State & Wisconsin this year. Kalen DeBoer: "We haven't held back (in non-conference). How do you figure out strength of schedule (when picking playoff teams) from conference to conference when you don't play as many games as in basketball & other sports"

The system you're rooting for would've given Indiana an AQ and likely a home game.
Whether people want to admit it or not, it’s true. Running the table against a bunch of mediocre teams should not get you in the CFP. Schools like Indiana and SMU getting in with zero quality wins is a joke. There’s zero reason to play good teams anymore

Yeah I'm sure all those teams would've really struggled to beat Vanderbilt. What a cry baby.
Alabama's Kalen DeBoer on being left out of last year's College Football Playoff: "You wonder what would have happened if other people would have played our schedule"
