Anyone with a pulse knows what’s on the line this week when Michigan takes on Ohio State. The winner gets a front seat pass into the national championship game and a shot at being the best college football team in the nation.
However, after the final whistle blows this Saturday in Columbus, the winner will have to wait a total of 51 days before it steps foot in the national title contest. Fifty-one days is a ludicrous amount of time for any team to have to wait to play between games. This all comes down to greed at the hands of the NCAA. Fifty-one days? I bet one could fit a ton of advertisements in that many days. Are you telling me that in 51 days we can’t fit a playoff system into the NCAA schedule?
Oh, I forgot. We can’t have a playoff system, because it takes away class time for these student athletes. Yet, while these kids are getting their education, the NCAA can sure make money off of these athletes by advertising the hell out of the national championship game, can’t they?
