re: No such thing as an “opt out”

An undefeated season is still a pretty big deal in football.

It only happened six times in the 1980's and seven times in the 2010's. It hasn't happened in the NFL in 50 years.

When Auburn got left out in 2004, they played their arse off and took pride in going undefeated. Print the shirts and hand out rings on that one, you deserve it. You did something even the greatest college football teams ever assembled couldn't do. You can brag to your grandkids about that.
