2018 was one of the most boring seasons of college football ever, 2019 is an easy call for me.

All three CFP games were garbage.  The only exciting big game I remember is the SEC Championship.  OSU knocking UM out of the CFP may have seemed like a bigger deal if not for the fact that I can never buy OSU in the role of underdog
