Now The Big Ten’s Like, “On Second Thought, We Can Play This Fall!”
Well, well, well… look who cam crawling back.
Looks like the Big Ten couldn’t let a season go by without getting blown out in the College Football Playoff. Probably figured sitting out a season isn’t how Legends and Leaders behave.
But real talk: This is good news. I know it’s frustrating for many college football fans. Especially if the Big Ten tries to get the other leagues to fall back onto their Thanksgiving schedule (which I don’t see happening – power in numbers). But the fact that they’re like, “You know what? Maybe we CAN play this fall” is a good sign. As a college football fan, I’d like to see all leagues on the same page. It just makes for a better – and less confusing – product. Especially come playoff time. Plus, even though there’s little chance the Big Ten (and definitely not the Pac-12) winning a natty this year, there still would feel like an asterisk next to whomever did win this year. Is that the proper use of whomever? Or should I have gone whoever there? Whom cares! Just give me all the college footballs!
P.S. – I blame the Big Ten not playing football on Lovie Smith shaving his beard.
