Yeah, that was kind of ridiculous. There may be a trend in college football to air it out, too, but there's still quite a bit of variety... from the Oregon type offenses to the Alabama/LSU defenses, etc. It's definitely not a football purist's heaven, but it's not even that I dislike the shootouts or whatever, I just don't get the feeling that every good CFB game is going to end the same way.
The NFL is so watered down these days, the only games that seem worth watching are Manning vs Brees or Rodgers vs another Manning, etc, since the most other games are more about bad offense than good defense.... and if the defense had
some chance, they would be highly entertaining games, but after a while it's "oh, another 42-38 game."
I'll take the good with the bad when it comes to college sports, since it's not
all about money and I don't get the feeling that it's manufactured.
