Subject: Bobcats Look Good Author: An Observer [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:49:11 12/13/25 Sat In reply to: Harvard Crimson Rule! 's message, "Who is your pick to win the FCS Championship" on 14:50:24 12/11/25 Thu For those like GG and me who would not mind seeing Montana State roll to an FCS title, last night's game was encouraging. With the Bobcats playing well and South Dakota State having been upset in the first round, #2 seed MSU has a reasonable path to raising the trophy. Best line from last night's ESPN broadcast: "This is Davis' seventh year in college football." As NIL programs grow in ubiquity and budgeting, there will be hundreds of college football players who have no shot at making a 53-man NFL roster but are plenty good enough to make $500,000 to $1 million playing FBS football. Many of these guys will not have alternative white collar job opportunities which can pay high six figures. You'll see many more players who will follow John Blutarsky's seven-year college program. Why not eight or nine? Bueller? Bueller? Which is more unlikely, grandfather Phillip Rivers playing in the NFL at 44, or a husband and father of three kids supporting his family by playing college football at age 30?

Author: An Observer [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 12:11:47 12/14/25 Sun I hope that CBS sends me the Colts-Seahawks game this afternoon. I want to see this "event." It's not just that Rivers is 44 years old and a new grandfather. (He has 10 children. What the?) It's that Rivers has just joined the Colts this week after five years away from the NFL. This week! He does have one advantage. His job up until last week was coaching his son's high school team and Rivers has been using the offensive playbook of the last team for which he played. That's right, the Colts. So he's been using a lot of the terminology and concepts. I'm at the age where often I root for a guy just because he's old. I wish Rivers the best.
