The 2018 NCAA Football Season is in the Books: Can We Keep the Agony from Repeating?

The NCAA 2018 season is in the books. The ratings for the championship game were solid, mostly because not many networks are going to program interesting things to watch ESPN seemed to have every one of their cable streams showing some aspect of the game. The broadcast reality is that the night was ruled by the silent collusion in televised sports. During certain events there is a distinct lack of any quality counter programming. Think about that for a second and realize that it just makes business sense. Everyone, ABC/ESPN, CBS, NBC, and Fox have a piece of the action, and no one wants to step on the other one for fear that something interesting will actually be telecast.
