The tears sure taste good. This guy is absolutely right and you are the same people who couldn’t spend your money fast enough for the biggest game of the decade two months ago when LSU played Ole Miss. And yet 70,000 people still spent their hard earned money for a meaningless football game. Then another 70,000 did the same thing for Bama/UGA, and Texas/Ohio St, and Texas/Tennesee, and UGA/Ole Miss.
You guys are the problem you are complaining about. And then when a fanbase, like mine, shows our disproval against our AD and coach you guys mock us and say we are bad fans by talking with our absence. You can’t have it both ways. You guys talk about taking over stadiums and how much better your fanbase is because you are willing to part with your money for meaningless games yet you complain about about the regular season being meaningless.
If you really believed it then stop spending your money. If next years LSU/Bama or UGA/Auburn or Ohio St/Indiana games all have 20K in attendance you can be sure they’d make changes. But right now, you guys are whining about something that isn’t true because the fans are showing you that they still enjoy regular season games.
You maroon, people are telling you what is happening, what is going to happen with DOUBLE the playoff spots. You act like we have lived through it and are wrong. It hasn't happened yet.

And that's what's bullshite, we traded REAL meaningful games between top 10 teams for FAKE "meaningful" games between two 8-4 CUSA teams.

instead of trying to determine who is actually the best team
That’s what playoffs are for and it’s why we have them in every other sport on earth.

He had fans views in one hand, the bag of cash ESPN will pay for another round of playoffs.
He certainly gave it a long thorough process and coming to a conclusion

that's what 12 games of regular season plus a CCG weekend is for to do the heavy lifting. Then a small, max of 6, team playoff finishes the rest.
A 24 team playoff where 4-loss teams that are barely even ranked get to make the cut in no way determines who is the best. Making a team that ran an SEC gauntlet for 9 games then have to play 5 MORE games on top of that is just a video game in real life and serves no real purpose other than 1) making more money for the people in charge and 2) keeping teh fanbase of teams that have no business being champion interested, which only serves to increase point #1.
I have no problem with a playoff. I have a problem wiht a playoff any more than 6 teams. If after 12/13 games you are only ranked 7th (or worse) you've lost your chance.

You’re just not agreeing with my viewpoint

Ok, so next season do you think LSU/UGA will be sold out or not? Do you think Bama/Tenn will be sold out. What about UGA/AUB?
You guys have been railing for 2-3 years now how the expanded playoffs are going to kill the regular season and none of it has come true. You are the same types who 30 years ago was telling everyone how the BCS was going to be the end of the sport.
I hope you guys have the upbringing and introspection to come back here in 4 years and admit you were wrong. I promise you that if in 4 years from now that FSU/UF, Bama/UGA, Tenn/LSU, are not sold out I’ll say I was wrong. But if anything you will see an increase in attendance as more teams get to play meaningful games in November than ever.

After the Texas debacle on Saturday, I’m officially done with FBS football, so that’s one fan they lost.
