What this shows me is that every day folks like me are just paeans in this big money world of movers and shakers.

If I had a million dollars, I sure wouldn’t bet it on a college football game.

If I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I’d buy you a house
I would buy you a house
And if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
I’d buy you furniture for your house
Maybe a nice chesterfield or an ottoman

And if I had a million dollars
If I had a million dollars
Well, I’d buy you a K-Car
A nice reliant automobile
And if I had a million dollars
I’d buy your love

If I had a million dollars
I’d build a tree fort in our yard
If I had a million dollars
You could help, it wouldn’t be that hard
If I had a million dollars
Maybe we can put like a little tiny fridge in there somewhere
….

Boosters have always had a major say in college football for more than a half century- read “the Junction Boys” on Bear Bryant’s time at TAMU....see SMU 40 years ago....and on and on and on...

Schools have made billions off these players...its just now the players are finally cashing in....

I know. It’s maddening how much big money there is out there…and always has been.

I hope Saban is smart enough to stay away from Jerry Jones. I don’t think the ‘Boys will ever be good again until he’s not the owner.

I don’t think they will, but I hope UNC will lose. Not a fan of either team, but BB is on my Top Ten biggest jerks in football, college and NFL combined.

UNC added 70 new players courtesy of BB. That’s so insane. Ruins the college game more than the portal or NIL.

Mike Lombardi is the GM and is as responsible for those players...Lombardi is a bit of a dope- the running mantra in the league about Lombardi is “he never me a mirror he didn’t love”....

BB looks really old and fat tonight. As soon as the money runs out, his granddaughter gold digger is GONE! Just like a new NIL deal.

Oh, I am so happy this game is going this way. The home crowd just left in the middle of the third quarter. The place is empty! LOLOLOLOL.

You are officially a has been, Bill!! How long will Jordan hang with you? I bet her transfer portal lasts longer than the NCAA one.

The QB from TCU looked pretty good. He had some nice timing passes.

I missed that part.

The funniest part was when they showed the home team fans leaving in the middle of the THIRD quarter. Ouch!

There was so much hype about Belicheat that the tv guys didn’t know how to react to the abysmal performance of their honoree. It was worse than Arch Manning on Saturday. Bill just expected he was going to win this game. That was his first mistake.

Yeah he looked good, and there were a few players on offense that were beasts, too.

Yes. It took TCU a bit to get going, but they clearly were the better team.
