>> You mean like last year when Florida opened the season against Michigan? <<
You mean 2017? Because last year Florida opened against Charleston Southern, Colorado State and Idaho. That’s just nauseating. Of course, in 2017, the faced Northern (?!!!) Colorado and UAB, in addition to Michigan. So basically, they played one real team in 3 years in their extra-conference schedule.
My idea (of course it will never happen) if to bring soccer-style Promotion/Relegation to college Football.
Imagine taking the 10 best teams and making them all play each other. With the bottom three teams being relegated, and the three best teams from the “Second Division” being promoted for next season.
And closed the season playing fsu every year.
If you’re expecting anybody to play toughies every time out of conference you’re going to be sorely disappointed. Most of the time you’re lucky if a team plays one OOC opponent good enough to finish ranked.
