• NFL counter-scheduled massive matchups opposite CFP games on Dec. 21, historically held by NFL, airing on broadcast television.
  • CFP decided to battle on Saturday rather than during the work week in December, as scheduling was a major complication.
  • CFP should stand its ground against NFL, prioritize creating the best product for fans, optimistic about upcoming matchups.

    I can only speak for myself, but I find college games more entertaining than NFL games. I wonder how this will actually play out. I’m guessing it will depend heavily on which teams/fan bases are matches up in those games.

      It really depends on who is playing in each. In fact, it might depend on what point of the game it is. If a low ranked CFP team looks like they’ll get demolished, I might watch for a few minutes until it’s confirmed, then switch.

    Two corporate sports entities duking it out for eyeballs and money. Maybe they can put each on its own pay per view to maximize revenue.
