I've only watched a couple of CFP games since they started this format. If we get 2 B1G vs. 2 SEC then I will continue not to watch the CFP games.
until you become a member of the SEC SEC SEC

I know several formerly-fanatical college football enthusiasts who haven't watched any of them.  The format just isn't compelling to some folks, including me.  It will only become less so with expansion.

I haven't watched B12 teams when they're in the CFP, I won't be watching SECSECSEC teams either.

I will of course watch Texas in any games it plays, but beyond that, I just don't much care about the CFP.

It is required of course to watch and cheer for all SEC teams if one's team is in the SEC.  It's in the bylaws.

IMO more sunday bound kids will just bolt,why fatten the already brimming budgets of the networks and universities while risking your future.What will be left is the program that survived the exodus better and not the world beaters of the season

I can assure you that my behavior as an "SEC fan" is going to be extremely disappointing to SEC fans.

I don't blame the universities, I blame the conferences that keep expanding and escalating the college football arms race.

I'd have something in the NIL contract saying they play in bowl games and playoff games or they forfeit the cash

I hadn't watched USC all year, obviously their tackling was, um, nonexistent?  I don't know much about fundamentals of tackling, but they seemed not to have anything there.  

Maybe that OU team and USC have something in common, I'm not sure what it is though.

A conference made up of Universities that could have opted out thus leveraging anything the conference were forcing them to do
