"This private equity deal was just ratified by the Utah Board of Trustees by unanimous vote. Approximately $XXX million infusion of cash for the creation of an outside for-profit entity that would take over many business operations of the Utah athletic department. Stated goal is to modernize commercial activity and maximize the revenue for Utah athletics -- "go from surviving to thriving.""

"Rep. Chip Roy of Texas: If were going to intervene maybe we should fully intervene. Maybe we should fix the damn mess so we dont have XX teams in the SEC and XX teams in the ACC and XX teams in the BIG XX and freaking Stanford and Berkeley on the West Coast in the Atlantic Coast Conference all because of money. Its just laughable"

"Amazing. I am not arguing Vanderbilt's ranking. However . The fact Vanderbilt per selection committee comments did not get much credit for beating rival Tennessee (9-3) on the road because they won by so much the committee dropped the Vols out of the rankings but . Alabama moved up for beating rival unranked Auburn (5-7) on the road because it was a close game and made a "gutsy" call on a late touchdown should go down in selection committee Hall of Fame reasoning"

"College football is perfectly imperfect. There's room for improvement (tie breakers weekly rankings) but we've gone from leaving 13-0 teams out to debating 10-2 and 9-3 clubs. In (partial) defense of the CFP selection committee . the worst system ever except for all the others"

"Felt like everyone could see what the committee was going to do except Notre Dame. The administration should have warned the players they werent assured a spot. Its tough for a great team and get the players disappointment but agree with you the likelihood they put all this together in a few minutes is extremely unlikely. They were just blindsided and didnt want to play"

"Im not justifying the committees decision. Their call not mine. However if you follow this stuff for years - as ND admins should - then you know there was a chance the committee would see it differently. In regular season: Bama soundly beat Georgia in Athens. BYU got blown out by Tech. As such a title game loss would be viewed differently and thus treated differently. Fans and players might miss that distinction and the possible ramifications of it. I get that. But administrators at ND should have. This is a big time department. This wasnt as shocking as its being portrayed"

"Believing the CFP committee weekly rankings is naive. Especially this committee. They are paid to ignore that show and analyze the risk. Not justifying the final rankings but this was not the stunner that it is being portrayed as. I get fans and players being stunned but not the department"

"Moving Alabama ahead of Notre Dame makes sense because Texas A&M lost (impacting ND). The explanation that Alabama had a good first half and later made a gutsy call to beat Auburn does not. No problem with the ranking but bizarro reasoning"

"🏈 Thoughts: A lot of college sports leaders are up in their feelings this morning. None of this is bad or broken. The committee's job was always to sort out the final spot or two in a sport where that is impossible due to disparate schedules. Theyll take two from ND Bama Miami. Is what it is. Will always be a debate. If you dont win your conference (or arent in one) then you risk losing the at-large street fight. Having two teams outside the top XX (Tulane JMU) is an ACC tie-breaker screw-up (as would the league being left out altogether). Its not a playoff format problem. The leagues are"

"The bowl system has operated mostly because conferences share postseason revenue thus covering the losses for schools who attend smaller bowl games. It's a welfare system. Until that changes the bowl system is fine. Ratings remain excellent -- buoyed by gambling. The hysterics in college football are hysterical"
