This week, we acknowledge the truest, most purest idiot of them all: the fan.
Yes, the fan who goes into each and every season expecting that the college football season will be a celebration of the best that collegiate athletics has to offer, rather than a scheme to satisfy as many corporate entities possible by picking the same five teams over and over again.
How else can you justify Cincinnati, a team that still remains in the second spot of the AP and Coaches’ polls, being ranked sixth in the CFP rankings? What of UTSA not even getting a cursory nod in the poll?
