"Long but worth a read. The reason college and NBA work is because they are (or were) different sports. There is a reason nobody watches NBA G-League XFL or AA Baseball. They are the same sports as the NBA NFL and MLB and when presented with the same sport people will always choose the highest level. Forever college and professional sports have been different sports. The rules are different and above all the division of athletes has been different. An elite college QB may be at an NFL level talent-wise but the best XFL player is lucky to make a practice squad the next year. Last year Cooper"

"For those asking why my opinion has changed so much from the 5+11 model to auto bids for conferences here is why: I dont trust the CFP committee or voters. ESPN and FOX have way too much power and influence on narratives. The idea of 5+11 is to earn it on the field but under the current ranking system that definition is different for every conference. We just saw [--] SEC teams in the Playoff and they all played terrible. Yet this is who the CFP Committee said deserved to be in over a second Big [--] ACC team or Notre Dame. If we go 5+11 it will be more of the same. Go to autobids take the control"
