They didn't get it because of their shiny helmet--that was the 2024 season where they won the CFP.

If it was due to helmet or favoritism, Indiana wouldn't have been the #3 school on that list. But they got into the CFP and got a benefit from the money the conference made, PSU got in and won 2 CFP games and got a benefit, and OSU won 3 CFP games and the NC and got a benefit.

I understand why it happened.

It didn't used to be that way.

Everything was split 11 ways.
  847 alot of things changed and not for the better,none of us are happy with, IMO its an unsustainable shit show or at least should be. The past two seasons I couldn't watch most of the playoffs because of streaming/cable. I'm not paying the ransome anymore - they're blatanly morally bankrupt whores and don't care who knows it.

Join me on the walk out,if everyone dropped them or at least the majority there'd be an about face after a season or two. STOP feeding the machine,dropping your season seats for similar reasons(unchecked greed) was a good start. A very good friends brother was an OSU grad and an Ear/Throat/Nose specialist and he dropped his season seats that he had fof 33 yrs becauce the "donations" was getting beyond stupid. Have to start somewhere

Funny, there is an ENT doctor here who is an LSU grad/fan who recently dropped his long-time season tix for similar reasons.  Told me it had been a while since he used all his tickets anyway, but he kept renewing them and making donations to keep contributing to help the TAF.  But he just doesn't have the will or interest anymore.

It got to a point with my tickets that it just wasn't worth it.

People wanted to take them off my hands for face, but the donation was WAY higher than the face.

Finally, I just said F it and let them go. I'm sure they got snapped up - 45-yard line, under the upper deck (no rain/sun), Wisconsin side. You just can't get better seats then these.

Those fake donations. One of the great evils
