Please explain to me how and why the NCAA can allow these teams to pimp out their football teams for cash for the school- how is that ok???
Yes I just watched the espn spot- but I've always wondered.

Its how some programs grow. For example, South Alabama just started a football program 4 or 5 years ago. Thanks to games like that, they'll be a FBS school sooner rather than later.

ESPN riding their high horse again.

It's embarrassing IMO. On both schools' parts, respectively. If we're such a pansy society now about "bullying," then this nonsense shouldn't be allowed to take place by power conference teams. And as the thread title suggests, you're literally pumping your over-matched guys out to get beat up.
But, maybe I'm old school. Leave the winning to the Oklahomas and Alabamas. **** the rest of 'em... :D

it seems to me that FCS teams shouldn't play BCS schools. maybe the classifications should change or something

NC State 31 South Alabama 7.

Thank you for that big check and this program will go from non existent 6 years ago to relevant soon enough.

End of and Answer to this thread. Go complain about something else un-pc.

I sometimes laugh when I see who is playing who. I think that before a team can play a "real" team that there should be a law that at least some one in America should know not only that your school HAS a football team, but be able to recognize that the school even exists.

Idaho?

Tennessee TECH!??!!

It wouldn't bug me if the players got a cut of the money, instead AD's throw kids to get the **** beat out of them so that they can fatten their own wallet.

Savannah State's AD should be fired for what he did this year.

Edit: Furthermore, Oregon's OOC is unacceptable. They should be passed over by a one loss team for the MNC.
