Thank you, friend NJ.

I am posting the article to allow for comments.

How about the Big Ten making up half of the six teams capable of competing for championships now and in the future: Indiana, Ohio State, and Oregon.

If this article had been written as the 2023 season approached, the six teams would likely have included Ohio State and five SEC programs, not just the two on this list, Georgia and Texas.

If Indiana had been on the 2023 list, everyone who had anything to do with the article would have been lining up for unemployment benefits the day after publication.

Indiana is the perfect example of what's wrong with the list; it is too exclusionary.

Excluding Big Ten programs Michigan, Penn State, and USC is short-sighted. Find the right coach supported by a knowledgeable staff and funded by deep-pocket alumni, and any program can be in championship contention, including these three programs and others.

It was but a few seasons back that Washington played Michigan for a championship, and Wisconsin was one of the Big Ten's most consistent programs.

In making this list, I would have included Alabama, Florida, Oklahoma, LSU, Tennessee, and Texas A&M from the SEC, and would probably be remiss in not including Auburn.

At the moment, Texas Tech is a college sports pariah, but it has the resources to move into the championship echelon.

And with the way he has evolved as a coach and with the resources at hand, I'd add Mario Cristobal's Miami program to the list, especially when considering Notre Dame is one of the six-pack of teams.

However, I recognize the article asked journalists who cover college football for CBS Sports to come up with one program only. And I'm delighted to see OBD on the list.

If anything in today's largely unregulated world of college sports, there are likely other Indiana programs out there, waiting for a Cig and alums not shy about lighting up wads of cash.

By the way, the Michigan basketball coach took a Michigan team that finished in last place in the conference two seasons ago to an NCAA championship this season.

Then, because of the college athletics chaos, Dusty May left to coach the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA.

Without enforceable college sports regulation, how long will Ryan Day, Kirby Smart, Marcus Freeman, Steve Sarkisian, Dan Lanning, and Curt Cignetti be on a college football sideline?

Thanks again, NJ.

It doesn't affect me at all!
