P5 scheduling breakdown

blah blah blah and more blah.

Incapable of carrying an adult conversation. Shocker.

How about add more conference members and play less conference games. Isn't that what college football is supposed to be all about ... not playing your own conference members?

SEC coaches vote 13-1 for 8-game league schedule, but it's only the beginning

Where did i say that the SEC/ACC do it the right way? I said that 8 conference games and 2 P5 games will bring more excitement than 9&1. Maybe I’m just weird but I feel there is more buzz around non-conference games and the fans get more worked up for those games than a conference game.

I think ticket holders will be happier with watching Washington play Auburn, Michigan, or Oklahoma State rather than Washington playing Arizona State or Colorado.

I feel the season SHOULD be more about finding the best teams in the country rather than the best team in a conference. Forcing everyone to play two Power 5 opponents gives us a better idea on conference strength rather than one game and usually it is not top team against top team.

Again, I’m not saying SEC and ACC are doing it the best way, but no one is doing anything close to what I want.

If you're going to add more conference members that at least play them for fvks sake.

But why is that better for college football? Giving us more boring games that we see every year so that we have a better idea of who the top team in conference is but have next to no info between conferences is better because...?

Explain your position please. Instead of “they’ll get more losses” because that does nothing for me. That doesn’t make college football better especially when you have teams out there who have playoff potential playing 9 conference games and propping up Rutgers and BYU as their big quality OOC game is a joke and makes a mockery of college scheduling. Either way they would be playing at least 10 power 5 teams.

Eliminate conferences altogether and have the schedule set to balance SOS every year, as long as you are dreaming.

Check this out. Part of college football is actually playing your own conference members ... unless you're Notre Dame.

BUT WHY IS THAT BETTER FOR COLLEGE FOOTBALL!?!?!?

I would rather watch Michigan State play against Oklahoma State and Washington than Kansas and Illinois. Just because it is a conference game does not instantly make it better.

If Michigan St. wants to play Okie St. then schedule them for fvks sake. USC plays no less than 11 regular season P5 games year in and year out.

Yes and what about the rest of your conference. Washington does that same thing what, once a decade? You are all about everyone doing it the same but you don’t want to do what USC does on a regular basis?

There's only a handful of teams that have played a total of more regular season P5 opponents than Washington has in the past 30+ years.

And? Again you do it once a decade and want a freaking sticker for it.

You have no real reason on why 9 conference games is better because you are just a mindless, copy and past troll. I have given several reasons why 8&2 is better than 9&1 and your only response is conference teams should play conference teams. That’s really all you got?

Hey, you illiterate fuck, what part of 8 conference games and 2 non conference P5 don’t you get? I have fucking said multiple times the SEC and ACC don’t do it the way I am saying and that no one is. Guess what, if they did 8&2 they would at least be playing 10, right, you fucktard.

Let's ask a USC fan how SC manages to play a 9 game conference schedule and two regular season P5 OOC opponents every year. There has to be some kind of magical phuckery involved.

If there's any SC posters reading this please explain how USC manages to do this.

So why can’t Washington do it every year?

Because Sarkisian thought Washington would have a better shot at getting bowl eligible so he talked the previous AD into scheduling weak ass OOC opponents. Washington had never played an FCS team until him and that cvnt AD pulled that shit.

And now you play them every year.

They had UW's schedule filled in for the next five years ... Wisconsin backing out of a home & away series didn't help matters. Washington plays 11 regular season P5 opponents this year so it's improving.
