There was a post CW concern that all the folks moving to the city were raising soft fucking losers since there was no war or hay to get in the barn. It started in the motherland of academis superiority - The Ivy League. In SEC SEC country it also became a part of the whitewashing (lol) of the recent unpleasantness between the states.
Southern schools were excluded from early big time football. Vanderbilt of all teams was the first to venture north
It was a violent game filled with death and injury. Teddy R told them to clean some things up
By the 20s it was in the pantheon of American sport in the new advertising age. That's when the big stadiums were built and UW invented football at Alabama in the Rose Bowl
In the depression the football squad revenue kept the doors open at many a university, College football was king when the NFL was playing on sandlots
It was deeply ingrained in the American Experience. Things change though. Now the NFL is king and when us old fucks die college football may die with us
The History of SEC Football is a great resource for all of college football. 8 parts on the ESPN family of networks
And the history of the west coast football and the Big 10 is a big part of the lore. And our DAWGS are part of it
cool story gramps
You’re right Race. I do feel like we’re seeing the twilight of college football, at least as we know it, and we’ve covered the root causes here ad nauseam.
But there will be more realignments before that happens, so it will at least be an entertaining final act.playinglosing to Ohio State outside of Pasadena. It doesn't have any meaning, whatever that means.
Maybe I just need to LIPO. But more than likely for many people this is not the beginning of the end, but somewhere much closer to the middle. And then a bunch of young fucks will repalce us in the modern era and life will go on, and like Race said, what CFB was will be dead with each generation we lose. Maybe that's always been happening and I didn't see it until now. Except I did, because the BCS was the real beginning of the end.
Can I offer you some of my meds? -

I always wanted to be one of those old fuckers who could barely wave his hat around standing next to his bag of bones that no one would fuck on the Huskytron because I had gone to 70 years of Husky home games and had season tickets for 50+ years. Gave that dream up 4 years ago. Sad!dtd said:

When Cfb was more regional it was actually more national.
Georgia tech, Nebraska, Colorado, uw, all won natties in the 90s, the whole season was the playoffs plus a beauty pageant, and you didn’t have to have a media corporation behind you to build an elite team.
Every conference had a legit shot of fielding a top level team. Just because of institutional, financial, and demographic factors it’s hard to imagine Nebraska or Colorado ever sniffing a nc.
I think the worst thing is having 2-3 teams monopolizing national talent. That never happened before. -

Disney is the number culprit for this, and is the reason Cuog is left out in the cold. Yet those idiots will still proudly fly their flag for that Disney TV show that helped kill mainstream college sports and WSU.

I felt bad for the Cougits until the inevitable lash out and name calling began.
I don't like this, it's not healthy, and I'd still prefer the Little 12, but enjoy the Mountain West faggots! -
