Ya. But you should probably get over it since the playoffs will probably never happen without letting the bowls have some kind of consolation.

Imagine if George Washington after getting his ass kicked just got over it.

That is the problem with this country. Everyone just settles and accepts it.

This shit is spot on, watch.

Next on the list....

1. Enforce a higher GPA requirement
2. Allow players released from a program to immediately transfer to another school, even if they have not graduated.
3. Only green turf. :lol:

Some more...

1. Include each year of participation in a NCAA sanctioned sport as a full semester credit course. They put in a lot of work, and are preparing for a profession...it's up to the NFL to hire them...but they are still being prepared for a profession.

2. $3,000 for living costs is acceptable, considering the time they have to put into their sport instead of taking on a job.

:burt: How many NCAA football players do you think go pro? How many non-revenue athletes go pro? You cannot possibly be advocating for football players to be placed on an even higher pedestal... participating in sports is a privilege and no way in hell academic related. I understand the time commitment, but lots of students work full-time and go to school too. Outside of the rare paid internship, they don't get credit for working, so why should football players. They already have full rides, stipends, and living expenses paid for, no need for extra benefits (which they get anyway...). The immediate release of transfers is crap too; if you commit to a school, you should stick with your commitment.

Then the controversy just leads to #13 team arguing THEY should be in the playoffs.

12 South Carolina 8-2
13 Kansas State 8-2
14 Georgia 8-2
15 Michigan State 8-2
16 Nebraska 8-2
17 Wisconsin 8-2
18 Michigan 8-2
19 TCU 8-2
20 Southern Miss 9-1
21 Penn State 8-2


Wisky deserves the 12th spot just as much as the Cocks

All the rest of the crap you said.... You don't want them to get stipends, okay, that's fine.

There's absolutely no reason why they shouldn't get credit for their sports. Can you identify and describe energy 1 and energy 2? I can. Has to do with which energy system your body is using at which point based on activity length and intensity. I was a history major. Why do I know shit about kinesiology and bio-chemistry? Sports.... It's 3 credits a year. It really can't hurt, but it can help the athletes be more successful in the classroom with a lighter workload outside of practice during their heaviest semester of athletics.

You know what's bullshit? Getting a masters degree in a FRENCH LITERATURE.

What I said about transfers, was that when a team releases THEM from their scholarship, they should be allowed to play elsewhere immediately. Not when they quit and just want to transfer.

If you're talking about sitting them down and discussing the chemistry/kinesiology/biomechanics of human movement, than fine, by all means count it as a class. But counting film study or practice as an academic venture is complete bullshit. For the record, I think a lot majors are bullshit too, but at least French Literature can be more applicable than majoring in the proper tacking form...

And LOL at using some obscure bio-chemistry nomenclature when making your point; maybe try using the actual terms when referencing aerobic and anaerobic capacity next time, smart guy.

You got the bio-chemistry part correct, but the kinesiology? Not so much... :burt:

The point is not everybody understands how it applies to workout structures, asshole, and it isn't just aerobic and anaerobic capacity, it's which form of energy your body is leaning on the most...like creatine phosphate in the first 10-12 seconds of a sprint. Energy 1 and Energy 2 is used to describe work out phases... They should already be LEARNING about the real terminology of the actual energy systems in biology...this is more like applied science, but thanks for being a dick about the whole thing.

I didn't list kinesiology as if it were connected to en1 and en2, you fucking ass hat. Jesus Christ.... It was just an example of things I delved into by participating in sports. It was shit we needed to know, so we learned it.

And lol @ a masters in French Literature being more useful than tackling. Give me a break. I guarantee there are more professional football players than people using their French Lit MS, you pompous little shit.

1. Start season 1 week earlier. This is to avoid pushing into semester finals for the student athletes later on, you will see why.

2. Start camp 1 week earlier to accommodate #1.

3. Hold conference championships 1 week earlier, should land in November most of the time.

4. Hold first round of 12 team playoffs on the first or second Saturday of December, should land on the 1st Saturday most years. Format below...

-6 conference champions seeded 1-6
-6 at large bids seeded 7-12
-Homefield advantage to top seeds


5. Begin "bowl season" in late December after semester finals.

6. Create a true "Bowl Cup" format to build significance of non-playoff bowls. Include reward system for winning schools/conferences beyond just the trophies.

7. Quarter finals, played as bowl games on neutral fields, hosted by BCS bowls. Top 2 remaining teams get a bye week, 4 teams play for right to make semi-finals.

8. Semi-Finals, part of New Years Day bowl lineup, again, BCS bowls.

9. Championship game....held 1 full week from New Years Day, again, played on neutral field.

:thumb:

I think this would work.

Don't #1 and #4 kind of conflict with each other. If you reason to move the season ahead a week is so kids don't have to worry about finals, shouldn't there be no games during the first 2 or 3 weekends in December?

Ya, sort of does. What I meant was so that the first round doesn't fall during finals week. This way the first round should land where the conference championships had been.
