The College Football Playoffs announced their penultimate regular season rankings last night and, as expected, there are some controversial selections. But Dan reminds us that this is exactly what the expanded playoffs were supposed to accomplish; renewed interest in college football. The world of sports is in a transition period as new rules are being implemented in multiple leagues to make each sport more watchable. The hope is that making fan-friendly changes will vault the sport to new heights.
Dan Patrick: “This is what they want. Just so you know, they love that you’re discussing college football. There’s controversy. People are upset, it’s not fair. They want you to talk about their sport...This is what sports is doing. This is happening right in front of us. Now you can say, ‘Is this the Golden Age?’ Well, that’s open to your interpretation, but this is where we’re going. It’s about money. It’s always been about money.”
