College football is back following an incredible slate of quarterfinal games

Texas-Arizona State was an instant classic. Notre Dame-Georgia had some good drama. College football might be back.

This is a subjective assessment of the entertainment value of a sports season.

The SEC is dead and the effectiveness of first-round byes is over in the CFP

The SEC is dead. So is byes. Byes are dead. Byes are dead. Byes are dead. The rest versus rust has been settled. The SEC is dead.

While SEC teams were eliminated early, claiming the conference is 'dead' is a subjective hyperbole.

Boise State's lack of urgency at the end of the Penn State game was sad

The end of the game was a little sad by Boise State where they were just trying to get him [Ashton Jeanty] the record instead. I know they were down 17 and there's probably no chance, but running on first down with two and a half minutes left was a little sad. They had no urgency to try to cover the spread.

Subjective opinion on coaching strategy and team priorities.

The targeting rule was created solely for referees to impact games

I feel like the rule was created so that the refs have an opportunity to impact a game one way or the other. Where if you want it to be targeting, you can say, 'okay, that's targeting, this guy's ejected.' If you don't want it to be, then you can say no. And everyone's like, 'well, okay. I guess I don't know what targeting is.'

This is a cynical interpretation of the rule's purpose that cannot be factually proven or disproven.

College basketball has five absolutely dominant teams this year

We have five, you could even maybe go to six, just absolutely dominant teams. Michigan, UConn, Duke, Arizona, and Florida that are playing at such an insane level.

The dominance of these teams will be tested in the upcoming NCAA tournament in March 2026.

Florida can win the national championship because they can shoot threes now

Florida though, I've been talking about Florida for three weeks. They could shoot threes now. They absolutely kicked [Arkansas's]... They just throttle teams. All four of [Duke, Michigan, Arizona, Florida] would be the best team in the previous five years.

Whether Florida wins the title or performs as an elite team will be decided by the end of March Madness.

Miami of Ohio will make the tournament even if they lose in the conference tournament

I'm saying right now, winning every... If they go undefeated in the conference, that is so hard to do. I think if they go undefeated in the conference and then lose in the conference tournament, I think they will be in.

This will be resolved on Selection Sunday, March 15th, 2026.
