Miami has produced some of the greatest players and teams in NCAA history. ESPN knows people pay attention to Miami ands it's good for cfb. Miami is the true bad guy of cfb. People get tired of notre Dame and other chump schools on top what's the difference between that and broke back mountain? People rather have a hulk/thor combo on top like Miami...a good guy but crazy good and out of control, tear up **** and beat the **** out of people.
Miami which is hulk/thor leaves for awhile..then you see Alabama aka lex Luther rise up. Some how they manage to say around and causes problems due to the misuse of allocated funds when the reality is a real one like Miami (hulk/Thor) can return anytime and snap that neck in less than 3 seconds. That's what people like and I think ESPN realizes this.
