It really is the most wonderful time of the year, and the holiday festivities include the grand opening of the national college football playoff, otherwise known as the “CFP” or “No Invitation For You, Notre Dame.”
Hopefully by kickoff time in each of the four games this weekend, no head coach has left his post to jump to another job for more loot … and what is the contingency plan if 25 players from each CFP squad decide to enter the transfer portal three hours before game time?
That won’t happen – not this year, anyway – so let’s enjoy the game. That’s the only plan I have this weekend: watching Alabama at Oklahoma on Friday night. Three more games on Saturday, beginning with a spicy late-morning matchup pitting Miami deep in the heart of Texas A&M headquarters. Not only that – but Saturday’s lazy-day viewing pleasure includes two NFL games … and then an entire Sunday of NFL action.
