Takes
BYU has a zero percent chance of getting into the College Football Playoff
I have something against people who think that BYU has any chance, any chance, like not even a .001% chance of getting into the college football playoff... BYU is not getting in.
Alabama will crush Auburn in the 2020 Iron Bowl
Iron Bowl. Alabama's going to fuck Auburn up. The stat I've been throwing out there... Nick Saban is 6-0 all-time against Auburn as 14 or more point favorites. So when he has them, he has them.
Northwestern vs. Maryland will go under the point total
I'm slipping into the warm and comfortable feel of a Northwestern Under against Maryland this weekend because the total is at like 54.5... Northwestern scored 12 points per game in the conference last year Maryland scored 16... 16 plus 12 does not equal 55.
Every college football team should be eligible for bowl games this year regardless of their record
Every single team is eligible. I hope that they make 200 bowls. I hope they make the maximum amount of bowls, even if it's like a bunch of teams that have one win have them play all together... the shittier the team the better.

The Big Ten will officially announce its return tomorrow
I do think the big Ten's going to be back. I think they're gonna announce it tomorrow. There's a there's a mini power play inside the power play that Nebraska was feels like Are the team that spearheaded this
The Big Ten will likely miss their target return date of October 10th.
The target date is October 10th. That allow them to play 10 games and then they could get into the playoffs whether they get to the October 10th date, which I doubt they are. That was what their plan was.
Sir Yacht's reporting on the Big Ten is completely fabricated
Sir Yacht is a choose-your-own-adventure source. He's wrong all the time, a hundred percent of the time. He pretty much makes it up. But if you want to live in a fantasy land like I do, listen to Sir Yacht and ignorance is bliss in this respect. I do love the fact that like twice a week the Big Ten comes back.
College football is in real trouble for the 2020 season.

The Big Ten football season will actually happen despite the current cancellation
Big Ten football is definitely going to come back. Yeah, for sure. So there's a petition... Justin Fields started it... I would say conservatively I've signed it 75 times. ... I would say there's a 10% chance that I think that this fucking stupid petition online is going to actually change something. Well, so when I say 10%, obviously I mean like 60%.
The SEC will delay the college football season as long as possible to avoid canceling
I think the SEC is going to do... full on fucking mode, or at least like we're going to delay, delay, delay, delay until the very last second. They might even delay again. Right now the kickoff is September 26th... they might just push it back to October.
The idea of a spring college football season is ludicrous because of the lack of recovery time
The pros get five and a half months off and college kids are college players are given two and a half months off from pad to pad... that is a ludicrous thought to say. Oh, yeah, the pros are getting over five months off before they put on pads and you're going to do it to college students in two and a half months.
Top college football players will not play in a spring season
The one thing you are going to miss is you won't have one big player, one top player... why would Justin Fields, Trevor Lawrence, any big time player? They're not playing in spring because the NFL is under no guidelines to move their draft back to help out.
The Big Ten will announce they are canceling the college football season on Monday
As we're sitting here right now, it feels like the Big Ten is going to announce that they're canceling on Monday. And then who knows what's gonna happen? Like I could still see the SEC being like fuck everyone were playing.
Bobby Bowden is one of the most underrated coaches in college football history
I think Bobby Bowden is one of the most underrated coaches. He had a 14-year stretch where the Florida State Seminoles finished in the top five. That's insane. Coach Bowden was a wonderful human being, very personable, very spiritual. He's like a father being away from home.
The Ivy League canceling sports will force every other conference to follow suit
I don't know how any of this is going to work. And I guess that segues to college football feels like we're in a bad spot and fuck the Ivy League again. They started it. As soon as they canceled I was like this is gonna get everyone because the smartest guys in the room are like, 'hey, we don't think it's safe' and everyone else feels pressure.

Chuba Hubbard's protest marks a major power shift where college players finally realized their leverage

Paul Finebaum's take on Nick Saban running out of time is just a result of him having no other takes
Paul Finebaum has run out of takes so his take now is that Nick Saban is running out of time. Oh, like we all like he's on the downside of his coaching career. He's 69 and he's going to be 69 this year. So he's like, yeah, he's too old.
College football is the one sport where fans matter the most

Mike Leach will be successful at Mississippi State because you have to do something different in the SEC
I always thought, like, at Mississippi State, Ole Miss, you have to do something different. Because, like, you're not just going to line up and beat Alabama or LSU. Like, you're just not going to have the talent there. So I think it's a good fit.
LSU is in the conversation for the best college football team of all time
Doubting them was the... I mean they are in the conversation for best college football team of all time. They beat five out of the top eight teams. They destroyed everyone. They had the best resume of any college football team to ever exist.
Nick Saban appearing on the championship telecast while LSU won was a weird move
I don't think I would do it soon as LSU is there I think I'm like, you know what I'm gonna sit this one out... why don't I mean to have your arrival win in you're doing the I don't know. I don't think I would do it. So Saban became a meme I think for a minute.
Nobody could have ever stopped LSU's offense this season
I really don't think anybody ever could have could have stopped this. I mean we were we were just rolling we had I mean I could just throw up a I could throw the ball with my eyes closed.

Notre Dame will not win a national championship anytime soon
Are they gonna win a National Championship? Not soon. I don't think so. They're not bad. They will be in that college football playoff picture every year to be a top ten team... but there are some things that make it much more difficult at Notre Dame to win a National Championship.

I have a future on Ohio State, but I think Clemson is going to beat them.

The UCF vs. UConn 'Civil ConFLiCT' was never a real rivalry to the players

I actually think it's gonna be LSU Clemson in the final... yeah I'm going to agree I mean this might take a loan out.

This is loser talk by Dabo Swinney because what he is doing is he is setting the table... for everyone to be like it's unfair that they're not in the college football playoff if they did happen to lose to Virginia. So he's just so far deep in his own mind of perceived hate that he's getting mad about an outcome that's not going to happen.
Clemson is a top-four team but it's fair to say they haven't played anyone
