HOW ABOUT NO COLLEGE FOOTBALL?

There has been, as there is every year at this time, a lot of discussion about college football scheduling and the stupidity of the BCS system.

What if there were no college football?

What if there weren’t enough colleges to have a BCS conference,

I went to four colleges from 1966 to 1972 and never graduated and it don’t seem to have hurt me none.

I’ve felt for a long time that a college degree is one of the most overrated things on the planet.

It’s possible that there are going to be a lot less colleges on the planet pretty soon. There’s talk of a coming education bubble.

I don’t have the figures to back it up, but I would guess that about 60% of the guys playing college football in 2010 are not college material.

I’ll go a step further and say–again with no facts to back it up, just a gut feeling–that only about 40% of the students on most campuses are “college material.”
