“And Georgia fans, don’t be turds. Enjoy this. Soak it up. It’s awesome. If you don’t win this year, it’s still not a failure. It’s a heck of a run. Back-to-back in the Playoff era hasn’t been done. So, to ask for a third I feel like it’s gluttonous. I feel like it’s not OK. But we’ll be in the mix.”-- David Pollack, On3.com, 5/9/23
I just hope that the NCAA can get a quick econ 101 course and learn a basic lesson regarding diminishing marginal returns. If they think that every time they add a layer of play-offs they will be increasing the pay-out by an equivalent amount(200 million) than we’ll be at a 16 team play-off inside 4 years. Someone needs to explain this to the powers that be or they absolutely will kill the goose that lays the golden egg for this kind of money.

Yaaay, this means the extra money can easily find stipend payout for athletes !
Am sure the Ivory Tower University Presidents will all agree to do the right thing for their “Student-Athletes”.
Aren’t you?

One could also argue it’s better simply because it’s not the BCS

I prefer the more formal “Ka-ching”.
