I am totally against an extended season that takes student athletes out of the classroom and testing schedules simply to suit the cravings of idiot-savants who want a national college play-off system.

But ban college football? Bunk.

I agree. Truncate the season at ten regular season games. Period. Retain the original Big Four Bowls(Rose, Sugar, Cotton, Orange) on New Years Day, with no "official national champion."

Keep the Coaches' and the Writers' Polls. Shit-can all the BCS crap completely. Let the fans argue about who is "Number One" for the next year. That's what makes it interesting.

For all the myriad of minor bowls, let them play during the December Christmas break and let their chips fall where they may. Scratch the Senior Bowl--let the NFL pay for holding its own tryouts.

I know these halcyon days won't return, because the sh*tty little moneygrubbers who have seized control of big college football won't allow for it. Sad.
