With all the talking heads on TV proclaiming that this season is unlike any other, I’m curious how the community feels. Totally new landscape of CFB or just more of the same? How do we all feel about:

  • Helmet communication (for only 1 player on the field per team except on free kicks)
  • Tablets on the sidelines (up to 18 per team)
  • The 2 minute timeout
  • Corporate logos on fields (no longer requires the stadium to be named after the sponsor)
  • New homes for Arizona, ASU, Cal, CU, Oregon, ou, SMU, Stanford, Texas, UCLA, USC, Utah, Washington
  • Expanded playoff (probably too early to tell on this one)
  • New TV deals (SEC on ABC, B1G on CBS)
  • Current season of Fansville (Ewers could be a Heisman candidate but he sure won’t be winning any Oscars)

For reference, here are the P4 vs P4 records so far:

  • ACC: 6-8
  • B1G: 5-5 (or 5-6 if counting ND)
  • Big XII: 5-6
  • SEC: 8-5 (or 8-6 if counting ND)

    If we’re doing a playoff at all, I’m glad it’s 12 to get the first round on campus. That at least appeals to the actual strengths of the sport.
