Cowboys' Stadium home for BCS national championship

When the original BCS format is completed after this upcoming season, college football will have the national championship at Cowboys' Stadium following the new playoff format for 2014-2015 season. This will be the first time in over a decade that the Cotton Bowl will be hosting a national championship game in a new stadium. Therefore, this will be exciting for college football fans to experience the title game in the new Cowboys' Stadium, but it depends on how the playoff games turn out for teams.

Ohio State and TCU to play in the future

Both TCU and Ohio State will have a home-to-home series beginning in 2018-2019. Both schools have played each other before, but the expectation are different. TCU is looking forward to challenging a Big Ten team that has a lot of national attention because if the Horned Frogs can play with and possibly beat the Buckeyes, then they will prove to themselves and the nation that they can be a national championship contender.

On the other hand, Ohio State is looking to be recognized at the heart and soul of the Big Ten conference and be the team to compete with any Big 12 opponent and win in front of a national audience. Therefore, this matchup will be a wonderful one to watch and be one of the most exciting games for the 2018 and 2019 seasons.

Boise State to keep blue uniforms

On ESPN.com, Boise State will be able to keep their blue uniforms for home football games. This is a huge victory for the Broncos because they have for many years worn the blue uniforms and have not had any complaints from opposing teams or from the NCAA. However, a few weeks ago, the NCAA started to question whether Boise State was cheating by "camouflaging" themselves among the blue turf.

The NCAA did not find any evidence of "camouflaging" the Bronco players on the field. Therefore, Boise State can continue to wear the blue uniforms for home games. I think this is great for the Broncos because if teams want to beat Boise State, they have to be ready to play the game and not complain about the color uniforms the Broncos wear for home.

Boise State vs. Florida State in the future

According to ESPN.com, Boise State and Florida State will play each other in the future. This is a great deal for college football because the Broncos have been a legitimate contender against the BCS conferences for the last few years including the 2007 Fiesta Bowl win over Oklahoma. Also, the Seminoles are starting to return to their national spotlight after defeating Northern Illinois in the Orange Bowl. Therefore, this game will be a big media buzz when they will start a series between each other for a couple of years. Personally, I would like to see Boise State challenge Ohio State for a nonconference game, but who knows if that will happen.

However, this news is great for both schools and for any general college football fan who enjoys watching the regular season and the bowl games.

Big East makes deal with ESPN

On ESPN.com, the Big East finalized a $130 million deal to continue their coverage of some athletic programs. However, Cincinnati is still looking for another conference to join in the future. Personally, this whole TV deal with ESPN will help the Big East in the short run, but I think it will be in trouble because the conference doesn't have legitimate teams to compete with the other conferences, especially in football.

While Cincinnati is looking to join the ACC, they might want to consider the Big Ten because of geographic location and the Big Ten has more to offer with coverage and money. Therefore, this deal is good for the Big East, but they should have taken the $1.17 billion deal five years ago. If they took that money at that time, then the conference probably would not have lost some members.

Please comment on this post. I really want to hear your opinions about the constant changes for the Big East.

Boise State's blue uniforms

On FOXSPORTS.COM, Boise State maybe forced to wear an alternate uniform at home because the NCAA is making a rule for teams to not "camouflage" themselves if their teams colors match the color of the football field. I think this rule is silly because if someone wants to win at Boise State, no matter what color uniforms they're wearing, the visiting team must play better than Boise State. Therefore, the NCAA should not make this a rule for Boise State, but simply let the teams play the game no matter what color uniforms the teams are wearing.

Nebraska Colorado rivalry renewed

Nebraska and Colorado will renew their college football rivalry in 2018. This is good college football because former Big 12 members will be playing each other, but from different conferences (Big Ten and Pac 12) which will have national implications concerning the race for the national championship. Nebraska should have the edge because of the recruiting class they run and the kinds of athletes they bring in from within the state of Nebraska.
