Ive been saying SEC is a shell of itself right now. Ive also been saying Indiana will smoke Alabama as well. Miami beat Texas AM , UVa beat Mizzou, And just watched Tennessee get beat by Illinois.

Didn’t watch, didn’t care.
Yeah, Vols fans didn't care enough to go to the game in their home state, so why should we care?

I hate the fact that bowl games have become exhibition matches, but if the players don't care, why should anybody else?

It's very hard for me to get invested in a game where I have no idea if the regular season team is 60, 50 40% of it's true self, on TV much less spend money to travel and watch it! Bowls are pretty much DEAD!

They are now try-outs for prospective suitors with NIL money. Gotta give it to the other Fat Bastrd in Illinois that keeps winning at a school that has a shallow history of winning.

All of college football is a shell of itself. The "top" 6-7 teams would be smoked by the top teams from a decade ago.
There are a LOT of "business decision" plays made/not made that isn't being talked about enough in the country. The level of play and fundamentals are way down....but highlight plays are up so I guess nobody pays attention to that.

It is more of the "NFLization" of college football. Big plays and highlights are what Disney wants so people will watch. Watch NFL games. The tackling is pitiful because they aren't allowed to have full contact practice more than one day a week. It is all about offense.
