I wish they would significantly lower the prices! $50 for upper bowl, and $100 for end zone lower bowl. Demand just isn’t there at those prices.
Its pro stadiums prioritizing per seat $s over actual attendance.

Not ideal since just like the IL UC game they're banking on locals buying late.

I think a bowl game in NYC at Yankee stadium in 30 degree weather with snow is awesome. I'm not sure why those of us in the north would want it any other way. I know I would have more fun in NYC for the Pinstripe Bowl than I would in Phoenix for the Rate Bowl. 🤷

Scenario 3: Last playoff spot to ND over UM (ND in Big 10) - ND payout split between all Big Ten programs.
I'm fairly sure that any negotiations with ND would include them demanding special treatment for the payout split. Like them keeping at least at least 50%.

Once again the SEC is exposed as overrated.
SEC fans will point out that the big ten so far feasted on G5 teams. It is true, but most of our best teams have not played yet as they are waiting for next round of playoffs or better bowl games. They are downplaying significance of bowl games and won't respect anything other than playoff results.

I'm hoping to hear mocking SEC chants as one of their premier programs get knocked out of the playoffs

Record by conference:

B1G:

Mountain West: 2-0
Sun Belt: 1-0
MAC: 1-0
ACC: 1-0

SEC:

SEC: 1-1
ACC: 0-2 (lol)
B12: 0-1
AAC: 1-0

So the SEC’s only non-SEC win is against a G5 opponent. They lost both of their ACC match ups. We beat the ACC champion and the B1G is currently undefeated against the ACC.

The B1G is 1-0 against the P4 and the SEC is 0-3 (against non-SEC opponents).

If the playoff is what they care most about, I have a feeling that’s going to go the way the B1G as well.

Saw this on another board. LSU is Minnesota with better colors:

Look at all those weeks ranked.

Takes awhile to drop out of the rankings when you’re gifted the top 10 each year.
Yeah, it might be time to look at those recruiting services that no longer scout and simply award rankings based on where a kid commits, which favors larger programs/the SEC.

Those rankings play a role in preseason AP poll and even advanced analytic ratings.

Coastal Carolina running a defender on to thebl field mid-play was an interesting move.
