  1. I don’t really want to see Big 10 and SEC separate. I think it actually would hurt college football. I might be wrong on this, and I’m sure most here disagree. However, the pooling of rights I can’t get on board with if I’m understanding it correctly. Viewership drives the networks to purchase the rights to display a superior product at a premium price. It is not fair that the SEC and big 10 would have to share these proceeds with schools that noone wants to watch. Sorry if that sounds harsh to lesser watches schools, but it is reality. And the genesis of the legislation stems from a billionaire that wants to supplement his own money to a single college, because that college doesn’t receive (rightfully so) as much money from their media deal. Then said billionaire posits it as an attempt to save college football? He wants his team to advance, and wants some help, because maybe he’s tired of the extra expense.(I don’t know) But to me, it comes down to this: it’s not right that a superior product has to share what they make with inferior products in a free market society .
  2. I’m not a lawyer, but isn’t the pooling of rights somehow against free trade (superior product rising to the top) ? Against maybe the Sherman Act or the Clayton Act?
  3. Was a great season. Congrats to Schloss and the team! Cant wait for next year. If the front of the order stayed what they were in the season it might have been championship. Harrison with a gutsy effort in that last game. He should hold his head up leaving UT.
  4. And the fumble recovery in the endzone against Oklahoma.
  5. Silas Bolden . He did work out in a way, but for him I wish he could have gotten some more playing time and stats . For a smaller player, he had such a big heart and work ethic .
