I'm sure all of the non-playoff bowl games have their share of opt-outs. And yes, it is a way to showcase the up and comers. I guess I'm just old school. I'd rather see the guys who were getting first team reps all season in the last game of the year. Leave the showcase of the up and...

Who knows nowadays? How many starters are going to be brought in from the portal? Could be as many as a quarter of the starters. And yes, some members who are JV this year will be varsity next year. It's been that way forever. Would you still start your JV team over varsity in the current...

The thing is, even if they move the portal activation date, players are still going to know if they will be entering it or not so they'll still skip the games.

Never is a strong word, ain't it. :cool:

No one is saying the teams aren't playing hard. The complaint is it's not the same teams. It's like watching the JV teams play instead of the varsity. They're both playing hard (or should be), but it's not the same teams. Or you watch the Three Stooges with Curly for years, and then all of a...

****, college football is screwed up.

No, his question was your opinion on the effect of opt-outs/portal on non-playoff bowl games. You are stuck on the results of Canes game. You're right, the Canes should have been more competitive and won the game. Not sure why you think most on here thought the Canes had no chance to win...

The 12 team playoff will help keep those players active for those games. Unfortunately for the other 30 or so bowl games, it will basically be JV football.

The post was Saban would NOT allow this to happen. Obviously it did. Some of you all really need to get off the ledge. It's not an excuse for what happened yesterday. It's up to Cristobal, his staff, and the team as a whole to be ready. They weren't and shame on them. Take a step back and...

The post was Saban would never let this happen. Who's moving the goal posts? It ain't me. By the way, for those of you getting all up in your feelings like this is an excuse for yesterday's loss? One has NOTHING to do with the other.

No, I think his team did. Which you said would not happen.

Who was the coach of Alabama again in the last year of the BCS in 2013? The team that just missed out on the title game after losing to Auburn in the last week of the season. They went to the Sugar Bowl, had 5 turnovers, and lost by 2 TDs to Oklahoma who was a 17.5 point underdog. 5 turnovers...

The first idea is great. However, I don't think it matters when you open the portal. If a kid knows he's going to the portal, he's not going to risk injury and play.
