This looks like a good catch in the NFL. I think he was like a man playing with boys out there today.

The PAC 12 reversed themselves too now. NFL sucks for me, but I love college football. That's the way things were long ago.

7-game season. Little to no fans. It's a total money grab for television revenue. Nothing more.

Not a real season.

Here is something that is really strange to me. The Pac 12 is supposed to open play today. Arizona State plays at USC at 9:00 AM in the morning. What?

Super happy ND beat Clemson.

However, the scene afterwards (fans storming the field) is probably going to be talked about a lot in the coming days.

Most had masks on at least.

One of the more ridiculous scenes I have seen since a handful of rallies over the past few weeks. Wasn't the Notre Dame president the one who got COVID at the SCOTUS announcement super-spreader event?

He should be fired immediately!

Two days after COVID spike warning, students rush the field to celebrate Notre Dame win

The behavior of people in this day and age is strange. The students furious about their school pres not being responsible then they turn around and do this.

Check this out concerning the status of the Big 10 right now. It's in disarray.

Fields has been awful

Tough to say the Alabama QB is really good. WR’s are so damn open most QBs would look elite.

College football needs to lower scholarships to try and even out the talent.

Crazy how good Bama is.

If they all only got 75 Alabama would get as many good players, it would trickle down. Also after COVID the athletic departments could use the cost savings.

Or they could move those scholarships to other sports, or maybe the chess team

As a Buckeye fan, we needed everything to go right. Having to deal with Devante Smith for only a half would be one thing for starters.

How he wasn't double teamed the second he got off the bus is beyond me. I get it Sark schemes ways to free him up but I would play like a gunner on the punt team. Take your chances with Harris and Metchie.

Fields missed some throws as well, missed an easy TD to Wilson that would have tied it at 21. He doesn't see the field well at times but the pressure was on him, especially after Davis went out and Barmore feasted. I've seen some mocks with the Vikes grabbing Barmore.

Conversely Jones was playing 7 on 7 drills out there.

Would have been nice to get Olave involved, curious to see if Surtain simply erased him. Garrett Wilson is going to be a very good receiver, should have tried to take some shots with him.

Congrats to Bama, this might be the best team Saban has assembled. They won every game by two scores, save for the SEC championship but that required a last minute TD by the Gators. They lost Waddle and still put up historic numbers.

Are there any restrictions(ceilings) in paying college players now? I hope so or the 'have nots' are screwed. They kind of are anyway but once in a while a UFC or a Utah would make a run.

Now it is a Battle of the Donors.

I think this could be a can of worms that best not be opened up. It is sickening to see the big schools making millions off these kids but I only think allowing them to do endorsements will only benefit a small number of athletes.

Just like it does in the pros. It's amazing that everyone loves capitalism except as it applies to big-time college sports.

Your taking money away from wealthy white men running the colleges and giving it into mostly minority athletes; of course there going to be an outcry from some in this country.

The colleges are going to have a frenzy. You think recruitment is crooked now....

Some of these players are going to get PAID.
