This became a reasonable number of people after I realized it is for 2 studio shows and 2 games.

They have yet to do that for a game for some odd reason

Light show secret playbook for the first big night game?
quote:

Disney is slowly turning the screws too. Sunday night I could still watch the LSU game because it was on ESPN+, but for some reason on Monday the FSU game was not available on ESPN+. Why would that be?

I think because the LSU-USC game aired on ABC, and the FSU-Boston College game was on ESPN. Scroll down to this chart that lists ESPN+ as an option when the MNF games air on ABC but not ESPN only (except for the HOF game for some reason).

Last year the dispute with Spectrum lasted past Week 2 of college football until hours before the first MNF game.
NC A&T looking competitive with Wake Forest so far.

It’s been proven excluding Lambeau, LSU fans don’t travel for these.

This is an “excluding Lambeau”-level game that fans have had circled for years.
I went to the Barons minor league game at Rickwood on Tuesday, and it was a great experience.
Leaving at 2:30 and heading to the Met.

In keeping with the NFL’s long-standing holiday tradition, the Netflix Christmas Day games will air on broadcast TV in the competing team cities, and be available on US mobile devices with NFL+.

Actually the football fans who travel have some class, as I witnessed in 1997.

I met some classy Florida fans 27 years ago is perfect.

Verne reporting from the first Texas Rangers spring training camp in 1972.
quote:

In the 12-team format, the six highest-ranked conference champions will receive a bid, along with the next six highest-ranked teams.

If there's no Pac-12 champion because there's no Pac-12, that's something that will have to be revisited. What's awkward about it is Pac-12 commissioner George Kliavkoff is one of the 10 FBS commissioners who makes those decisions, along with Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick.

It was too early following the news for any concrete answers as to if and how the model might change, and how it could impact conference champions. "I certainly understand why people need to ask the question," CFP executive director Bill Hancock told ESPN. "The fact is that it's too soon to say. The CFP management committee and board of managers will discuss the future if and when it becomes appropriate. Of course, none of this will affect the four-team playoff this year." -- Dinich

Great first half. Doesn't feel like an appetizer game on the slate tonight at all.
