College Football

Turns out B1G and SEC are wearing the pants here.

Yeah I like the idea of this, but for top heavy conferences like the B1G, where's the incentive for them to impose any penalties on the top tier of the conference? Mizzou is gonna wind up on the stake all the time so that alabama can continue to pay for play.

Well yet another college football season is coming to a close tonight, so I figure it's time for me to finally announce winners for our prediction contest! Below you'll find a table with our top 5 results.

As you can see, nobody even scored half the available points. Though there were some really good smart guesses. Essentially everyone got Oregon, but Miami and BYU did a lot of us dirty. Congrats to @WVbrU@lemmy.world for winning! I've sent messages to the the winners for them to claim their corresponding gift cards. Thanks to everyone who played or just hung out with us this year. I love our little corner of the internet here, we've got manageable numbers of gator and tide fans. In all seriousness though, I do think that this community punches well above its weight in terms of quality content to active user ratio, and I hope that we continue to slowly build up our presence here. To that end, I'd also like to present this post as an open forum on our mod team (specifically me). This is my first time modding for a community, and even though we're small I want to provide a good experience to our users. Hopefully one day we're big enough to warrant actual moderation and I can take a step back, but until then I'm all ears if anyone has suggestions on what we can do for our community. Good luck this afternoon to anyone playing, and I'll see y'all for whatever off season drama comes our way.

And just to be totally clear, fuck that man with a mustard bottle

Uh oh

Not their best work, IMHO, but the Herbstreit tag they either pulled off the pile or had him record makes me think they agree.

He gone!

WTF?

Something needs to be done after the garbage first round of playoffs.

• No automatic bye for conference champions seems good.

This article stops short of saying the Big12 and ACC should only get one team in, but I'd support that until proven they aren't week conferences.

Strength of schedule needs to be a bigger factor, an 11-1 Indiana never deserved a spot. My ideal default would be 6 SEC, 3 Big10, and the other automatic qualifiers.
