Notre Dame Leads the Way to Armageddon

Huskerzone.com reader Keith Balmer spit out a couple thousand words on the subject of college football expansion on his blog.

While I disagree on a couple of points, we find common ground on our dislike of Notre Dame, and acceptance of the power college football has – second behind the NFL.

College football is second only to the NFL in terms of power and influence. I don’t know why I’ve been so damn stubborn. I love the NBA. I have a love-hate relationship with MLB. But I never wanted to give college football the benefit of the doubt. Even though I saw with my own eyes (when I worked at a sports bar in Atlanta) just how P.O.P.U.L.A.R. college football is. Who are we kidding here? It’s a freaking professional sport!

Good perspective from outside of the cornbelt. You can also follow Keith on Twitter at @KeithSmooth
