They all need to get on the same page. You can't have some schools playing in the fall and some in the spring. Just move it all to the spring and play a regular schedule. Oh well, I'll take what I can get though and I pretty much just watch conference games anyway.
I don't really feel the need to watch powerhouses beat up on cupcakes because the cupcakes require the ass kicking to fund their programs.

the real problems are no way to have a unified champion with this split season and if the BIG 10 and PAC 12 play a full schedule in the spring then isn't that somewhat unfair? we aren't talking spring camp, it's a full season of 10 league games. you could argue that it would allow them an edge given the real game experience their freshmen and younger players would get. and then there are injuries. instead of a full year to treat injuries and rehab, now it's a short turnaround to transition back to a traditional fall season.
i'd prefer a real fall season with all the power 5. that seems impossible at this point as i don't think the BIG 10 and PAC 12 are practicing at all. the others will be opening fall camp soon, albeit a bit later than normal since they've pushed back their openers a few weeks. right now fall camp should be in full swing with games just a few weeks away.
the split champion issue isn't such a big show stopper, that was the case for decades under the old poll based system. so we have two champions again for one season. both would have the dreaded asterisk on their "titles".
since all 3 of my teams, Texas, Louisville and Kentucky would play in the fall under the current plan for their conferences, i'd take that.
fuck the PAC 12 and BIG 10.
