New Rule: Unless youβre a fan of a G6 team, STFU about how good or entertaining a G6 playoff would be.
So tired of people whoβs teams wouldnβt have to be relegated with such BS, trying to tell others that itβs actually a good thing to get excluded

Marlin Dean had 2.5 sacks in three FBS seasons before he got to UAB. He has 10.5 in nine games in Birmingham β the most in college football.
Five schools couldn't unlock this player. UAB did. His teammates and his head coach tell the story.

So, how exactly is this 24-team playoff helping the Group of 6? Better read the fine print, says @TheTimStephens:

ποΈ Only 1 guaranteed spot for G6 teams in an expanded 24 team field is absolute garbage. You could have guaranteed each G6 conference champions a spot and still had 18 spots for P4 teams. What a joke.
So when does the CFP antitrust lawsuit come out? Year after year, the rules change, access gets restructured, and the same conferences seem to benefit. At some point, someone needs to explain how this is supposed to be an equitable competition.

10 conference champions.
14 at-large bids.
If people are so worried about the regular season losing value, this is the only correct format for a 24-team playoff.
BREAKING: The College Football Playoff and ESPN have agreed on a five-year deal that will expand the field to 24 teams in 2027, @CFBHeather reports.

JUST IN: Cam Ballinger has committed to UAB.
He's a 6-foot-4, 190-pound WR with intriguing size, explosive traits, and production (43 catches - 843 receiving yards - 10 TD).
Out of Albertville, Ala.
Fun get for UAB and a good fit for both sides.

It's just me, I'm sure, but in my first act as UAB AD I would personally gather the Green Helmets of Defeat and throw them in a fiery dumpster.

The appeal seeks to restore a season lost to a medical hardship after he played fewer games than the NCAAβs threshold.
If eligibility is expanding, this is exactly the type of case that deserves a fair review.

My only complaint about the new video boards: can we add the stats to the sections with the red arrows above them? Like run ads in the middle? Okay. But itβs hard to see the stats in the far sections for some. Also, the bonus, foul count, and timeouts are only in one spotβ¦

Significant victory here for the NCAA in the class-action federal lawsuit that had granted a fifth year of eligibility to athletes in the 2022 high school class.
The NCAA appealed and won.
NEWS: The Tenth Circuit has REVERSED and VACATED the nationwide preliminary injunction in Wisne v. NCAA, issuing a published opinion in the 5-for-5 eligibility litigation.
The injunction had already been stayed since August 21, and following oral arguments that appeared to go poorly for the plaintiffs, this outcome was largely expected.
The three-judge panel concluded that the plaintiffs failed to establish a legally supportable antitrust labor market encompassing all Division I sports.
Importantly, the court did NOT decide whether the NCAA's exclusion of the Class of 2022 is ultimately lawful, nor did it address whether NCAA eligibility rules are exempt from antitrust scrutiny.
