In 1994, Penn State went 12 and 0 and never got a chance to play Nebraska for the national championship. Clearly, the system needed to change. Even a simple plus one game would have settled it.
We got the BCS in 1998. Finally, a national championship game. But undefeated Auburn got left out in 2004, so that wasn’t enough either.
We went to four teams in 2014. Then undefeated Florida State got left out in 2023. Apparently, winning every game still wasn’t enough.
We expanded to 12 in 2024. Notre Dame went 10 and 2 and got left out last year. Still controversy. Still arguments about who deserved a spot.
Now 24.
How in the hell did we go from making sure an undefeated team had a chance to making sure teams with three or four losses get another one?
The regular season used to mean something. Lose a big game and there were consequences. Now we’re watering down the very thing that made college football great so television can sell more games.
Somebody will always be the first team left out. Expanding until nobody’s feelings get hurt isn’t fixing anything.
Twenty four teams is an absolute abomination.

This Michigan-MSU game is like watching two blindfolded children try to fight each other with canoe paddles.

As far as game-winning sports plays go, it can't get crazier than what happened in Whitesboro, New York on Friday night

Happy Reformation Day!
#OTD October 31, 1517:
Martin Luther posts his Ninety-Five Theses on the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg, challenging the sale of indulgences and calling for debate. The document spreads rapidly, sparking the Protestant Reformation and renewing the church's commitment to the truth that salvation comes by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone (Sola Gratia, Sola Fide, Solus Christus), according to Scripture alone (Sola Scriptura), to the glory of God alone (Soli Deo Gloria).

On Britain's Got Talent, an illusionist sat on stage while a sheet was pulled over a chair, making him instantly disappear and reappear in a different spot.
When asked how he did it, he offered to make an exception and explain.
He put on a reflective white jumpsuit and turned on UV lights to show the audience the secret escape route on the back of the chair.
Then came the real twist.
Even with the white suit glowing, the lights fully up, and everyone watching every move, he stepped back into the chair, dropped the sheet, and vanished into thin air again in a split second!

🚨🇫🇷 Thierry Henry on Manchester City being found guilty of 114 charges:
🗣️“I have to be honest. If Manchester City have been found guilty of 114 charges, I don’t understand how a points deduction can be enough.
If those breaches gave them an advantage, the titles won in that period have to be questioned.
For me, the Premier League titles should be stripped. The trophies should be taken away, the records corrected, and the punishment should go beyond points.
Relegation should also be considered.
This is not just about Manchester City. It is about the integrity of the competition.
If you break the rules on that scale and are found guilty, you cannot keep everything you achieved and move on after a points deduction.
Take the titles. Take the trophies. Let the records reflect what happened.
Otherwise, what message are we sending to every other club?”

For the Manchester City fans joking that they’ll set a record points score in The Championship and Haaland will score 70 goals, here’s a little wake up call for you.
1. No chance Haaland plays in The Championship, most of your current team won’t.
2. It’s not just the sanctions you need to worry about, it’s very possible that you’ll be sued by up to 50 other clubs.
3. If your owners have committed fraud, they will very possibly be forced to sell the club.
I honestly have no idea what you’re finding so funny, you’re completely and utterly screwed.

You need to accelerate to the speed of traffic when using the on ramp of the highway. I’m not sure why this is such a difficult concept for some people to understand.

🚨 Everton were deducted 6 points for one breach.
Manchester City have been found guilty of 114.
That's 684 points.

You can’t tell me the notion of an actual “zeitgeist” is just make believe.
Because I was alive when this first hit the radio and an instantaneous spiritual shift in culture could be felt by every single person who listened.

Remarkable statistic:
Prior to Western Michigan, college football teams were 110,352 - 0 when leading after the end of regulation, dating back to 1869.
