My god, man! I thought being a Purdue fan was depressing.

But at least I can look down on anyone who lives in Cleveland with pity. I'm sorry for your existence, sir!
We used to look down on Cubs Fans then the fickle finger of fate fixed us

Purdue won the B1G West once. 

So they're better than Nebraska.

Gotta love the post-Saban slaughters that Alabama goes through on a semi-regular basis.

My Bama buddy is texting me, whining how Indiana must have richer boosters, and how that’s all the difference today.

Bama’s boosters:

What I don't understand it that it seems like all of us here, pretty much some of the most die hard of die hard college football fans in existence, all agree that's what we want to see.

And yet every single thing happening in the sport is going the EXACT opposite direction.
In politics there is a saying that there are three kinds of voters:
  • Voters who are definitely going to vote for you.
  • Voters who are definitely going to vote against you.
  • Voters matter.
The point is (was because things have changed somewhat) that your campaign needed to focus on the third category, the reachable voters because campaigning to #1 or #2 was a waste of time.

I think that the same concept is in play here. From a ratings/money perspective there are three types of people:
  • People who are definitely going to watch.
  • People who are definitely not going to watch.
  • People who might watch.
We die hards are category #1 so the networks don't need to worry about us. They also don't need to worry about category #2. What matters to them is the "reachables" in category #3. The people who are somewhat interested in sports but not really into cfb. Those folks are probably a lot more likely to watch a playoff with a defined bracket.
