        FSU BOTs are clowns (terrifying!)

          That's looking like a set up for a 4 team playoff...

            What kind of clown doesn't wear face paint? Pathetic.

              STFU, FSU!



              There's nothing wrong with Haggard or anybody in power at FSU, which has an anticipated $2.4 million shortfall for its next athletic budget, wishing to explore if the Seminoles would be better off financially going elsewhere. But do it behind closed doors. Don't air it out publicly when you're still in the ACC and have no clue whatsoever if the Big 12 even wants you as a member, which appears to be a no at this time.

                One that just might be the most embarrassing show in all of college athletics right now.

                  no it isnt.

                  The SEC champ is tied to the Sugar Bowl.

                  It is looking more like an attempt to save an otherwise moribund bowl that has been bogged down by Big East participants.

                    Twitter is saying the announcement is B12 champ vs SEC champ IF both conference champions are not in the 4 team playoff.

                    What's the point?

                        According to Dennis Dodds:

                        "This Big 12/SEC announcement absolutely consolidates power, money in top four leagues. Sugar now mirrors Rose in tradition, money, power"

                        I agree with this. There are now going to be 4 Big Boy conferences running the college football world. ACC teams will now beg to get out. BYU is in trouble.

                          How does this announcement change Sugar Bowl tradition as compared to Rose Bowl tradition?

                          No bowl mirrors the Rose Bowl in terms of power.

                            This is scary.



                            I don't think Dodd is that far off...
