[QUOTE="wma500, post: 2015323, member: 591991"] I'm clueless on movies and comics, but I get your point. And to that point, it's why Rutgers, Vandy, Indiana, Northwestern and South Carolina are in this ecosystem. Optically, OSU or Alabama at 10-2 is better than say 7-5. There will still be a certain, familiar pace to the college football season, there will still be a sub set of non conference games, there will still be upsets. Unlike the NFL, where everything is built around parity, the collective of top college football can schedule more freely, building to crescendos as the season progresses. We as a nation literally eat it up. The top is going where ever the top wants to go. ADs, commissioners and TV execs will control this. Nothing's going to stop it. What I'm interested in, is who is going to be the first to tap out and say "we're done, we're not doing this anymore". Vandy? ND? Northwestern? Somebody will, and it'll be interesting to follow.
