    The attendance is where they will see most decline in revenue....not in tv money:

    My reading of this reaffirms my perspective.  It points out that attendance is a small part of their revenue, which is what I suspected.  And if you're talking about a few games, that ratio is probably even more dramatic.  If they were mostly concerned about attendance, they would have scheduled everything in TX and FL to start.  
    Regarding the super bowl ads, I agree that they would love to sell them at the high price before teams are announced.  Maybe they do, but I feel pretty confident in saying that ad pricing for college is much more sensitive to the teams than the pros are.  Colleges have such locked in fan bases, at a whole different level than pro.  Everyone watches the super bowl, no matter who it is, which you would expect after 50+ years of data.  The CFP does not have the same history obviously.  My guess is the price sensitivity is far less than college. 
    I guess my point is, that I'm not sure their decision to move it had much to do with attendance revenue.  I think there were broader (but still revenue based) concerns.

    I'm gonna go with the knowledge of a TV insider and a model of the super bowl that is fairly close to the CFP and certainly is something the CFP wants to replicate.

    I guess this only shows people can see what they want to see regardless of knowledge or points of reference.

    They successfully shit on The Granddaddy of Them All.

    Greedy bastards....enjoy the superspreader events televised for all to see.  
    I will revise if they have only 500 people at the game and say that I was mistaken about what I said their motivation was re:moving the game.  (I don't think it has anything to do with family members)

    There is a really good coach who is a total jackass of a guy in the media - we call that a Dabo

    Ty Jordan, PAC 12 offensive rookie of the year, dead.

    Like Tackleberry from Police Academy.  Died at a family wedding on the dance floor.  Gotta figure that ruins weddings forever for that family.

    I think Herbie just wants to dodge going to the game to make the call.


    Jk, even though he is a fucking douche about Covid and the seriousness of it I sincerely hope he is ok and doesn't have any negative long term impacts from Covid.

    I didn't even see that he had it. The timing seems to be impeccable for some of the folks that get it.

    Clemson's OC doesn't travel with the team due to Covid protocols.   Does this mean he is chicken to?

    I don't often find myself rooting for Ohio State, but I surely am today.  Please 🙏 clobber Dabo the Douchelord and his Clemson Tigers.  I have nothing against the kids playing for Clemson (I like some of them quite a bit) but I want the coach to lose to the #11 team...the team that should not be there, in his estimation.  
    Hoping for Ohio State 421 Clemson 17.

    I would pick Clemson if I were betting on the game, though.

    Why oh why is Norte Dame in the playoffs when they get their ass handed to them year after year.

    WTH Do they do in the regular year that makes the BCS so enamored by them?  I’ve watched them for years now and have not been impressed with their play yet they make it to the playoffs.

    Anybody else notice this?

    18,000 in attendance today in TX.  They were petitioning the Rose Bowl to allow 500.

    Sure.  They moved the game because of the families of players being able to attend.

    NCAA is a fucking joke.
    (So is CFP, who is the governing body for this particular BS move )
