  • How to Save College Football...Again

    First we have to understand that Division 1-A college football is a different entity, different than basketball or baseball and needs a simpler model to survive.

    We currently have 66 BCS conference teams (including Notre Dame) and two independent service academies we have to consider.

    There are 55, [...]
