@PeteThamel Oddly enough, “80” is the correct number of teams that should be playing FBS football. They should be separated into 8 conferences of 10 teams and the 8 champs then move on to the playoffs.

Big Ten COO Kerry Kenny says that the Big Ten ran the numbers and 80 different college football programs would have reached the College Football Playoff if there’d been a 24-team format if you go back to 2014.

@PeteThamel The “everyone gets a trophy” group has infiltrated college football.

Petitti: "When you go to 24, you unlock a lot of really good ideas and a lot of really good opportunities." That's an obvious reference to a B10/SEC scheduling arrangement. He added that at MLB, he never had to convince people that having more people in the playoff race was a good thing.

@DanWetzel 8 conferences x 10 teams is the way. Unfortunately, someone is pitching the idea that 24 teams = more money and someone is buying it.

A 24-team College Football Playoff has become the sports version of AI Nobody asked for it, and almost nobody seems to actually like or want it, but decision-makers are very busy trying to convince you that it's inevitable whether or not anyone understands the implications. Great job by @ESPN_BillC espn.com/college-footba…

@slmandel @DanWetzel 8 team playoff comprised of 8 conference champs. Each conference has 10 teams.

Tne ACC, Big 12 and ND now support the B1G’s 24-team Playoff. The SEC is the last holdout. If they cave, say goodbye to the greatest regular season in sports. If you love college football, it’s time to stand up and make your voices heard. nytimes.com/athletic/72777…

@shermfirm @ByMattJones Poaching football coaches and AD’s from UH always seems like a good idea until……

@ByMattJones What does Yurachek even do? People were able to raise $5m in like a week. Either people aren't taking his calls or he isn't doing his job.

@DallasTexasTV Younger generations now get to experience the outfield stands at Arlington Stadium.

Chaos at Globe Life, Rangers fan drops Yankees fan

@SullyCNBC Is the vuvuzela extra or included in those prices?

Love the pageantry of the World Cup but these ticket prices are insane. Someone must be paying those prices but that someone isn't me #watchingfromabar #orthecouch

@XfinitySupport can you explain why all the disconnects at 20:00 - 22:00? Is this a planned service time? Do you reboot something? This happens once or twice a week.

@DGiddensBurner Somebody get a red card?

Y’all help me out what am I missing? I’m 99.9% sure Alabama just came out of a timeout and played defense with 4 guys. Funniest part is UGA had to spend a timeout to not go backcourt 😭

@ActionBonkson @kershaw_alex Vierville Draw. Town of Vierville-Sur-Mer on the other side of the hill just out of view. D-1 I believe is the #.

@kershaw_alex What draw # is that?

The bloodiest sands on D Day, Dog Green sector, Omaha Beach, where the Bedford Boys died.

@SullyCNBC No worries. They will send you one free email a day for the next 20 years instead.

Ahead of the Super Bowl I failed to get my football tickets. Upside is I saved a few car payments worth of money for nosebleed seats

@Super70sSports Boomer Sooners?

Imagine if Daryl Hall got on a Learjet in New York City and John Oates got on one in Los Angeles and then they raced each other to Oklahoma City. Well, it actually fucking happened thanks to the 80s, MTV, and almost certainly a metric ton of cocaine.

@TracesofTexas Mom facing camera and grandmother on left with her arm on his shoulder.

Look closely at this 1942 photo of servicemen boarding the Rock Island Rocket and leaving Amarillo. In particular, look at the three folks closest to the camera, which I've zoomed in on in the second photo. You can see EXACTLY what's happening: it's wartime. The man with his back to us is going off to war. The woman on the left is his mother. She's got her hand on him and in that hand is a handkerchief because she's crying. The other woman is either the man's wife or his sister but, looking at her, I think she's his wife. There's a war on and this man is going and there's no guarantee he'll come back. This is one of those life moments of incredible emotion, moments that seem to occur frequently at train stations. A masterpiece. I've looked at this photo a thousand times on the Library of Congress website and never really SEEN it. I'm glad I looked closer. Taken by John Vachon.

@ryancduff @GrageDustin @nicksortor In large cities they will have a few that cater to shift workers (nurses/hospital or plant workers). They are fairly rare though and not the norm….especially in the suburbs.

@GrageDustin @nicksortor Honestly I’ve never encountered a daycare that was open outside the hours of 6-6 Why are they open at 10pm??

🚨 BREAKING: Quality Learing Center is ONLY licensed for Day Program services. But @nicksortor confirms roughly 8 kids were inside the building until 9:30PM and they claim to operate from 2PM-10PM. MN law is clear: Day Programs can only operate from 6AM–6PM. SHUT THEM DOWN.

@FBallAnalysisYT Answer to your question is within the reply’s to Tyler’s post.

You don’t have to guess which company made this product

@CSOonX @GoPokesU @CFBKings @allcfbIG @CollegeFBonX @Blutman27 @nocontextcfb @KirkHerbstreit @TBob53 @BarstoolBigCat @CFBReport Been saying this for years. 8 x 10 is the way.

Hear us out: - 80-team Super League w/ 8 10-team conferences based on regionality - 9-game conference schedules so every team plays each other - Conference championship games as de factor 16-team playoff - 8-team playoff of conference champs only - National title at Rose Bowl

@CodyMcChicken_ @ByCasagrande Correct. Cardinal red - Pantone 201C ;)

@ByCasagrande What shade is Arkansas it's gotta be the same as well

The official shades of crimson used by the three teams who could play in the Rose Bowl: Indiana: PMS201C Oklahoma: PMS201C Alabama: PMS201C

@billyliucci Mack Rhoades, AD at UH when A&M lured away UH head football coach Kevin Sumlin.

Again, this committee was chaired by Mack Rhoades and Hunter Yurachek. What the hell did any fan base or program ever expect?

@DanWetzel 8, ten team conferences is the way.

🏈 Thoughts: A lot of college sports leaders are up in their feelings this morning. None of this is “bad” or broken. The committee's job was always to sort out the final spot or two in a sport where that is impossible due to disparate schedules. They’ll take two from ND, Bama, Miami. Is what it is. Will always be a debate. If you don’t win your conference (or aren’t in one) then you risk losing the at-large street fight. Having two teams outside the top 12 (Tulane, JMU) is an ACC tie-breaker screw-up (as would the league being left out altogether). It’s not a playoff format problem. The leagues are too big, but don’t let the mistake of 18 and 17 team leagues lead to the mistake of a 24 or 28 team playoff that all but end the value of regular season results. Improvements(?): End weekly rankings that undermine credibility and box in the committee. Go back to divisions inside conferences and/or fix tie breakers. End conference championship weekend, possibly with expansion to 16, and start the playoff earlier so it doesn’t end in late January. Home games first two rounds (prioritize seeding, the fans experience and local economies over bowl directors). College football chases its tail in panic which is what has led to so many short-sighted mistakes. You can see them doing it again today. The sport is in terrific shape. Remember, this is the same leadership that said NIL would kill competitive balance (opposite has happened), decrease fan interest (opposite has happened) and Congress would save them (not happening). Be wary of their cries and solutions this time. A fun/wide open playoff is about to begin. Everyone exhale.

@OregonHomer 8 conferences, 10 teams each.

The playoff will continue to make everyone mad until we acknowledge that the conferences are way too big and we need to go back to geographical conferences of 12 teams each
