What if, instead of crowning a national champion every year, we determine the current champion of college football by a title that is passed on from team to team. When you beat the current title holder, you become the title holder.

The first champion was the winner of the first game ever, Rutgers over Princeton, 6-4.

11/06/1869 Rutgers

Assuming this is accurate, I'll take it from here:

9/8/2018 Penn State
9/29/2018 Ohio State
10/20/2018 Purdue
10/27/2018 Sparty
11/10/2018 Ohio State
12/28/2019 Clemson
1/13/2020 LSU
9/26/2020 Mississippi State
10/3/2020 Arkansas
10/10/2020 Auburn
10/17/2020 South Carolina
10/24/2020 LSU
10/31/2020 Auburn
11/28/2020 Alabama
10/9/2021 Texas A&M
11/13/2021 Ole Miss
1/1/2022 Baylor
9/10/2022 BYU
9/17/2022 Oregon
11/12/2022 Washington
1/8/2024 Cheaters
9/7/2024 Texas
10/19/2024 Georgia
11/9/2024 Ole Miss
11/23/2024 Florida

And it appears Florida hasn't lost the title, yet.

IU was probably the most disappointing team in the B1G, considering the rumors they paid out over $10 million for that team last year, going over the top to get everyone they wanted in the transfer portal. Paying all that money, getting the cream of the crop in the portal, being expected to be a contender in the B1G and still missing the big dance is a disaster. That shouldn't overshadow the poor job Steve Pikiell did at Rutgers. If you look at the latest mock drafts, two of the top-3 players in some of them are Rutgers freshmen Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey. How bad of a coach are you if you have two of the top-3 talents in college basketball, a preseason top-25 type team, and you're 11th in the B1G? You have to say Steve Pikiell is inept at building a roster, to have two excellent players and a complete inability to mold a competent cast around them, and he's been at Rutgers since 2016, so he's had plenty of time to learn about the B1G and the level of players you need in order to win.

A Rowdy Raider transfer, I love it! Also share some skepticism as others in here, but seems like he could be a very good contributor. Having gone to WSU for a short stint before OSU, can't help but root for him even more.

Olivia Dunne Fights in Court After Losing Millions in 5 Years With NCAA Housing Settlement Case​

February 2025. Olivia Dunne penned a letter to the U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken. Her concerns? The $2.8 billion NCAA house settlement had issues. Multiple issues. It lacks transparency. Distributes money inequitably. Excludes athletes from the decision-making process. And now, about 2 months from that, she finds herself fighting in court. Directly this time. What happened? Well, the NCAA house settlement is nearing its final leg, and Dunne is not giving up without a fight!

Olivia Dunne has been running the NIL space for quite some time now. Since 2021, the year when the NCAA adopted the new NIL rules, she has amassed millions through endorsements. Currently ranked #4 in the top 100 NIL athletes, she has about 13.5M followers and an ON3 NIL roster estimated value of $ 4.1 M. Thus, when she spoke up on this issue, it held weight. She is the present example of an athlete who doesn’t come from the football/basketball domains but from an Olympic sport and still has managed to make a mark in the NIL space. Thus, when it came to fighting for what she represents, Livvy didn’t back down.

As per Forbes, Monday, April 7, Olivia Dunne appeared before Judge Claudia Wilken of the U.S. District Court to formally object to the $2.8B NCAA house settlement case. Among the four athletes who testified, Livy appeared on a Zoom video call and called herself a “Division 1 athlete, a businesswoman, and I’ve been the highest-earning female athlete since the NIL rules changed.” However, she went on to oppose that the settlement does not take into account her true value and potential earning power. She even alleged that she had sacrificed in her earnings.

In fact, Livvy even opposed the back pay offered by the settlement. And her argument was? “My value existed before NIL was legal. I don’t need to guess what I might have earned, I know. I had a growing platform and millions of followers before I ever stepped foot onto a college campus,” Dunne said. She even described that, before the NIL rules came into effect, she had already committed to LSU in 2017. During COVID, her fame skyrocketed and thus, till she came to college, she was already a rising star with millions of followers.

Wow that’s awful.

I was in DR about 10 years ago and went to a club. It was crazy packed in there and would’ve definitely been fire marshalled in the U.S. because there were way too many people in it.

Sad to hear that happened but honestly surprised we don’t hear it happen more often given how things are down there/

Hi Everybody, Probably the worst person to perform this task, so I'm just going to get into it. As you may or may not have noticed, and if you're around, you probably did. But, Jake hasn't posted in a while. Of course part of the fun a place like this (and being online in general) is there's...

Sorry about Jake. I don't read all the forums here - I know, shame on me.

A program-record 95 Ohio State football players were named Ohio State Scholar-Athletes for having a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 or better. 805 total athletes across the Ohio State athletic department earned Scholar-Athlete honors for the 2024-25 academic year.

Ohio State athletic director Ross Bjork believes the Buckeyes’ athletic and academic success go hand in hand.

“If you're doing one thing in your life at the highest level, you're going to do everything else at the highest level,” Bjork told Eleven Warriors. “No one's going to take a day off. No one's going to take a shortcut. So if you just look at our football team, look at our women's hockey team; women's hockey has led the department in cumulative team GPA, and we've been in six out of the last seven Frozen Fours, won two out of the last four national championships. Football had the highest GPA (in program history) last spring, last fall, they're on track this spring to have a really great GPA, and we just won the national championship. So again, correlation between excellence in one category – academic, social life, whatever – is going to bleed over into the athletic realm.”
