..in its own strange way, it's bringing parity to college football. I mean if Ohio State wins it all then I am wrong but if money was the only thing you'd think an SEC team would be in the final four,

Aside from Texas winning, the top SEC teams ALL lost!!!! Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, USC lost to BIG 10 teams and ND. Big deal Ole Miss beat Duke (starting a 3rd string QB) .
Go Tigers, Beat LSU…..

just proves that all can pay for play, whereas the sec has done it for years 'under the table'.

Looks like money to me!
1) TEX spent the most on NIL at $22mil. 2) Ohio St spent the second most on NIL $21mil. 3) Penn St, don't care how much they spent but surely plenty.
1-3 are SEC and BIG, highest paid conferences. More money.
ND is obviously spending money because they buy every QB from ACC they want plus HS commits from Clemson that were committed for a yr. We cant be the only ones either. ND is private school and doesn't give out $$$ figures easily but I guarantee they are one of the top 10-15 in NIL spending.
So not sure where you don't see money is not a thing? Thankfully ASU and Clemson gave some decent competition.

Of the 12 teams that made the playoffs Penn State had the least amount (6) of transfers. Other than the zero that Clemson took. I would be ecstatic if Clemson were to take only 6 transfers and make it to the semis.

Maybe even 5 TP guys. Have 2 already, we could still use a stud LB, another quality DE, and maybe another stud safety. Hopefully with those we don't need a 6th for RB, really hope those are in the locker.

Davidson should get a lot of reps this spring with Haynes being out. I think the rb room should be okay. I agree with all the other additions you mentioned.

Hopefully the NCAA puts on a $20 Million cap, and some schools will still cheat!! Since the schools will be able to use ticket receipts for NIL funding going forward, expect ticke price increases in Death Valley….. Go Tigers!

Tenn is adding a "Talent Fee" of 10% to all ticket sales starting 2025. Clemson has announced something similar but I forget the percentage but also add the new alcohol sales. Schools are going to make that $20mil somewhere, they are not just goimg to eat it.

Those four teams have a combined 25 national championships.

I’d tend to agree if there were new faces in the top 4, but that’s not really the case. Clemson, Alabama, UGA, Michigan rotated out, 4 more storied programs rotated in.
