Wrong. College football is Alabama vs. LSU in primetime *and* Utah State vs. Hawaii in the deep black of Saturday night and Sunday morning *and* Buffalo vs. Ball State on a Tuesday. It contains multitudes, anyone claiming otherwise doesn't serve your interests.

What is happening today is great for college football. The idea of 133 teams on the same level is and has always been a farce. The days of being force-fed garbage cupcake games and a sham of a postseason dictated by old men in ugly blazers will end.

Think of this way: UCLA and USC had to watch Oregon State win a College World Series title, make an Elite Eight run, and beat them head-to-head in football matchups over the last three years and decided trying their luck with Ohio State seemed more ideal.

If American gets Oregon State and Wazzu, then look for SDSU and Boise + 1 more to accept invites for 2026 to become an 18 team league. 3rd spot probably between Fresno and Air Force. Will gut MWC and solidify American as the clear 5th best league. Only move OSU can make to be P5.
