We’re about 2 news cycles away from Sac State launching a meme coin to fund their “FBS transition”

Reminder: the CFP is run by an LLC and not the NCAA.

While the NCAA recognizes the winner of the CFP as an FBS national champion, you can be an FBS champ without even playing in it.

The only real NCAA D1 Football Champion comes from their tournament: the Montana State Bobcats!

If Cignetti learned anything from his time in the FCS, it’s that if you have the lead it’s best that you secure the win with an interception!

If Indiana wins tonight, Curt Cignetti will have more national titles than Bobby Hauck.

That actually reads weird thinking about it.

The D1 National Championship game happened two weeks ago.

But there is a postseason bowl game tonight!
This is your reminder: the national championship game is on tonight. Yes, it’s Monday. Yes, you have work tomorrow.

Wait, they have an HBCU doing “America the Beautiful” and not “Lift Every Voice and Sing”?

You know what?

It’s the offseason already so screw it. Here’s another game thread for the CFP since the @redditcfb.com quarterly threads are going to be bombarded and might be hard to follow.

If Curt Cignetti wins his first National Championship tonight, his agents oughta demand an addendum to his contract:

Indiana will be required to schedule at least one team a season coached by Matt Entz or KC Keeler as long as they’re HCs in D1.

His two white whales.

Awesome to see MSU continuing to honor Native American heritage throughout the season.

Whether today at the National Championship celebration, or earlier with the dope MSU American Indian Council’s logo helmets, major love!

Tarleton wants to be thought of as one of the big boys.

But after last year’s playoff fizzle, their scheduling is saying otherwise. Instead of toughening up, their FCS OOC opponents have averaged fewer than 5 wins over the last two seasons.

Sure, wins are wins. But c’mon now.

Best thing the NCAA does is not automatically accepting that the private CFP as the official designator.

Now whether because they don’t allow every worthy program access (see 08 Utah or 17 UCF) or just don’t get their beaks wet, that’s different.

Congrats to the 25 FBS National Champion Hoosiers!
Congrats to the Indiana Hoosiers, who are now mathematically guaranteed at least a share of their first National Championship in program history. The Colley Matrix, an NCAA-recognized championship selector, would keep the Hoosiers on top even with a loss to Miami.

Reminder for suburb/exurb types:

If there are forests, crop fields, and/or strip mall sprawl between Small Town X and City Y, residents of Small Town X don't get to say that they're residents of City Y.

Only residents of City Y get to say they are, w/ border towns iffy at best.

What we’re learning is, rather than jumping to a known champion, Cignetti should’ve never left Elon for JMU and he’d already have a national championship.
January 10, 2026 at 3:51 AM
In 2021, #1 Indiana’s Cignetti coached vs 5-6 Temple’s Keeler.

Down 24-3 at half, Keeler out-coaches Cignetti and KC’s team wins 38-35. Keeler goes on to win his 2nd national title.

Cignetti’s 2nd of 3 losses to D1 Champs in 3 years.

The other 2? Both 9-4 Fresno State’s Entz.
January 10, 2026 at 2:54 AM
The longer this Indiana thing goes, the more confused it starts getting that Cignetti’s JMU—undoubtably National Champions in both 2019 and 2021—lost to Matt Entz’s NDSU both seasons.

And heck, they very well could’ve won it 2021S had Keeler not out coached him the 2nd half.

Illinois State had an incredible season that ended up just short of the FCS Championship. They are the first college football team to play 17+ games since the 19th century.

You know what’s necessary but hasn’t been expressed enough just yet?

Appreciation for all of the FCS fans!

From Nashville to the Magic City Classic, y’all have shown up.

Twitter, BlueSky, and Reddit commentary through the season has been exceptional.

FCS fans, thank you all!

Back in the day companies didn’t need to rely on AI to sell their male enhancement pills.

They did it with good ol’ American conspiracy, fraud, and money laundering.
