I’ve been ringing this bell 🔔 for 11 years!!! This was always the answerrrr
The BCS Playoff should have been the solution from the jump. The rankings were good, the access was bad.

Can a guy who’s missed three figgies *REALLY* be the MVP of this game? 🤣
"Someone's got to be a hero." ... "You've got to be sound in the kicking game!!" Times have certainly changed in college football, but those continue to be the wisest of words!

Reminder tonight's player of the the game is named after the great Bob Moran, legendary collegiate journalist in our state https://t.co/Xoovw4jSmv Passed in 2012 and covered this game better than anyone. He would LOVE both teams being good.

@TreyWallace_ @SpiritBen Some members of the media believe they can say anything without consequence. It's time for real journalists to say what needs to be said. Write with respect for your subject. Treat them with the same dignity you would expect to be treated with. If you can't do those things as a

Time for my thrice(?)-annual "the BCS formula was never the problem, it just needed to be more than two teams teams!!" rant? ... The absurdity of the CFP's arbitrary specificity is numbing.
Q. Hunter, do you see Texas Tech or does the committee see Texas Tech as being closer to cracking the Top 4 or closer to the teams, say, 6 and 7? HUNTER YURACHEK: I'd say at 5 they are very close to 4 and very close to 6. Facts.

Last night at the Rose Bowl, UCLA fell to Washington — but the moment that stayed with me wasn’t the score. It was walking to my car, drifting toward the front of the stadium, and soaking in the Afterglow. College football is changing fast. But the pageantry, the nostalgia, the

Listen to your quarterback. Be there on Saturday for a noon showdown with major CFP and ACC implications. Get ready to bring some heat! #H2P
Bring your family, friends and neighbors. Get to the North Shore early and let’s have a day. Need a playoff environment at Acrisure Stadium next Saturday. See you there!! #H2P

On this beautiful fall Sunday, the beginning of Thanksgiving week, I have but one humble request… Can I get a “HAIL TO PITT!” (Who’s still fired up over that big-time win in Atlanta? 🙋🏻♂️) #H2P

I won't shut up about it. #BearDown
Nobody wants to talk about the fact Arizona might be 8-3 in less than an hour

The multifaceted effort to make this sound like a thing that's happening to Lane Kiffin, rather than a thing Lane Kiffin's agent is engineering with his explicit approval, is pretty nauseating
"This is not a Lane Kiffin conundrum. This is a college football conundrum that we need some leadership to step up and change the rules on how this gets done." Nick Saban weighs in on Lane Kiffin potentially leaving Ole Miss ✍️

Yes - thank you for finding this @brettfera. If you want any idea how long ago 24 years really was - there's a VCR reference in the first sentence.
10/12/2021: @ShaneDaleAZ suggested in @DailyWildcat time for the Univ. of Arizona to "sell out like we mean it" (amid changing college sports $$ climate, budget fiascos, more). 24 YEARS later: the more things change, more they really do stay the same. https://t.co/Q9ir62lqX8

This Wildcat4Life (@ShaneDaleAZ ) wrote 23-ish years ago in the @dailywildcat why Arizona Athletics shouldn't wait, and should pick up a named sponsor. Better late than never! (I believe he even mentioned Casino del Sol in the piece, if my memory serves me...Trying to find it!)
FINALLY!

Smart move. The ONLY part of this that’s head scratching is “Casino del Sol Stadium” has been the leader in the clubhouse for a name for literally 20-25 years. I can’t fathom how it didn’t happen at some point in that timeframe, but GREAT move now for that kind of scratch.
Since Arizona AD Desiree Reed-Francois was hired in 2024, "naming rights is an important revenue stream that we aggressively sought." "The cost of running an athletic department, as you know, has gone up across the country." The money will go towards revenue share, facility
