Show notes

College football is moving closer and closer to the NFL model, and the latest NCAA proposals only make that conversation louder. Zach Seyko and Jacob Goins react to the idea of NFL-style offseason activities, 21 offseason practices across spring and summer, a shorter 10-day transfer portal window, and whether the sport needs a completely different calendar. The conversation gets into why the transfer portal window still feels chaotic, why College Football Playoff timing creates problems, whether conference championship games should stay, and why college football may eventually become a more formal semi-pro model with or without the NCAA. Then, the discussion shifts to EA College Football 27 ratings. Did Penn State and Indiana get enough respect? Zach and Jacob react to Rocco Becht, Josh Hoover, Jeremiah Cooper, Benjamin Brahmer, Anthony Donkoh, Carter Smith, Tyrique Tucker, and how the Big Ten looks inside the new game. Is college football better off copying the NFL model, or is the sport losing too much of what made it different? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
