Message: [QUOTE="CTFAN4LIFE, post: 4164045, member: 3328"] I hear you on that, but if the CFP continues to wane in interest (it's been doing that for the past handful of years) then it hurts the SEC because it hurts college football overall. If college football fans overall keep losing interest, then it is going to force the SEC to really go after the NFL model including expanding further and breaking away from the other ~ 100 schools. And that becomes the big, longer term bet that we appear to be headed for - albeit perhaps not for another 5-10 years. It's a bet because no one knows how fans will react to a AAA/minor league football model within the collegiate environment and in turn whether it will reduce/maintain/increase media rights deals.
