It’s been that way since 2010. A tiny number of teams consistently make the playoffs or on the cusp of making it (Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Georgia) and one team is consitently winning titles in Alabama.What about professionals? Should they be able to go to any team they want and leave at any time? The coaches can.
If you want to sustain the health of any league there needs to be some form of competitive balance. If there’s not, the entire sport suffers.
If this heads in any more of the direction it’s going you’re going to have all time lows in attendance and ratings. Not saying this is really due to the portal, but really the attitude toward college athletics now where the players should be able to do anything they want. That doesn’t work when trying to maintain attractive sports viewership. You can’t know who’s going to win it all every year.
How many Alabama/Clemson matches did we get in the last six years? And the Georgia/Alabama matchup for the title - this is the second time they’ve faced for the championship in the last five years. College football has the least competitive balance of any sport, including the NBA.
