There’s only a 4 team playoffs (so far) in college football so it’s extremely different than March madness. In college football, losing even 1 game will usually take you off the top 4 spots

College atmosphere is 10,000% better than an NFL game. Go to a College game , watch NFL on tv..

If you are looking November, Penn State-Michigan will be a great one to go to. As a lifelong PSU fan and current student, here is my pitch. Beaver Stadium (home of PSU) is known as one if not the best environments in college sports, and its the second largest stadium. PSU is doing a Stripe Out theme in the stands, which is sick. Also some of the best tailgates you will find, and a great bar scene. Its a relatively large rivalry, but probably a cheaper ticket than a lot of the other rivalries. As for the game itself, both teams will almost definitely be top 10 teams, and both have the upside to win the national title or at least the conference, especially Michigan, The Big Ten is a three team race between Michigan, Ohio State, and Penn State who are projected just behind the other two. One of the two teams is virtually guaranteed to be fighting for the conference race and a spot in the Playoffs, possibly both. Michigan is coming off two straight playoff appearances and conference titles, PSU just won the Rose Bowl. Michigan has a chance to assert themselves as top dawg in the Big Ten to stay, PSU has a shot at a program definer and an upset to put themselves at the top of the league. This matchup has generally been a very exciting game when played at Penn State, and went down to the wire two years ago even when Michigan was amazing and PSU was heavily struggling. Can't imagine the potential this game has with two juggernauts. If you want to see a crowd influence a game and a pure college football experience, this is a phenomenal option outside of the most famous rivalry matchups (Michigan-OSU, Auburn-Bama, etc.). Also Auburn is gonna be shit so high probability Bama blows them out. For more proof of the atmosphere of this matchup, watch what happened when they played in 2019 (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jN-gq8x1na2zqI0.html)... PERHAPS the greatest fan moment in college football history. Both have insane RB tandems that are probably the two best backfields in the country. Both defenses are likely top 5 nationally. Not sure exactly about Michigan's preseason All-American/draft projections (though they have lots of stars), but I can speak for PSU having 3-4 projected All-Americans, and 3 projected first round picks (including likely the best lineman and potential first non QB off the board, and the potential first Cornerback off the board). Penn State has a highly recruited new starting QB, Michigan has a great young QB returning. Thanks if you read all that and enjoy whatever game you go to. Super happy to see you guys experiencing college football

Going to the Iron Bowl (Auburn vs Alabama) is always a good choice, its one of the oldest and strongest rivalries in college sports, and the Auburn campus and Stadium are nice to look at, so you guys should definitely try to make that happen.

Ohio State during the Urban Meyer era was always good for one inexplicable loss in the middle of the year to a team they were 2+ TD favorites against. It's bound to happen eventually when you're favored to win every game but that never stopped me from enjoying it when it happened lmao

Every game in college is important. If you lose one your season is over. Unless you start high ranked then you can squeeze in to the playoff. But for 99% of the teams you are just playing for fun after that.

I remember getting back from work with McDonald's during that 2018 Apple Cup in the snow. You'll notice there are a lot of Pac-12 games in this compilation. They've gone 6 years without getting one of their teams in the playoff. Under the 4 team playoff system, you can really only get away with one loss if you're lucky and still get in. Oregon in 2014 and Washington in 2016 are still the only teams in that conference to do that under this system. Utah has won the last 2 Pac-12 football championships in a row, but they did so with multiple losses. They just haven't had a team separate itself from the pack and dominate the conference like we've seen in other conferences during the playoff era.

Check out the most unusual season in college football history. Every team that year that made it to the top 4 was beaten. Fascinating season.

I love that alot of the names mentioned throughout the video are in the NFL right now, these were big plays but for them to convert it to the pros is awesome.

The Army, Navy and Air Force teams are from the officer training academies. They usually play an unorthodox style of offense (one that used to be much more common in the early days of football) because the military physical training requirements are such that they really can't have the more prototypical linemen (big bulky guys). College football was very slow to add a playoff for the championship - as recently as the 1990s, it was just "teams go to whatever bowl game based on their conference, poll voters would decide who finished #1". In 1998, they effectively added a two-team playoff (which naturally had a lot of controversy; there were occasions where three teams finished the regular season undefeated and one didn't get a chance to play for the title). It expanded to four teams in 2014 and will be expanding to 12 in 2024.

When I went to a Detroit Lions game at Ford Field back when Calvin Johnson was a rookie, they beat the Vikings in overtime and the whole stadium shook like an earthquake. College football games are like 10x that.

The level down from the major college programs (Division 1-AA or FCS level) has a real playoff with brackets and more than four teams. It goes on for several weeks. And they have a true champion

I was expecting more Notre Dame for some reason. (Last won it all in 1988, when there really was not a title game mandated, and ironically they had a great game where playoff chances ended for _someone_ -- The Catholics Vs. Convicts game. Notre Dame 31, Miami 30, Miami could have tied but went for the win and dropped the ball in the end zone.) They have had some epic collapses against Miami, USC, Tennessee, Penn State, you name it. Stanford leapt to mind too. At the moment they're basically a top-10 spoiler. (They _have_ beaten Clemson twice in 3 years. And last year, with the expected starter out for the year, they _walloped_ Clemson. And had some stupid losses. Oh well, it is what it is.)

Again, Navy, Army and Air Force are military Universities . These guys will become officers in their branch of the service. The Navy also has Marine officers. These are regular universities with the added addition of Military training. These are very exclusive colleges. These are not people from active duty personnel who play football. Active duty personnel are busy protecting the country.

A number of these teams were never in danger of making the playoffs.

You can 100% wear your Alabama shirts to the game at Auburn. They’ll be a whole section for Alabama fans. Just make sure you buy tickets in the “visitors” side of the stadium. Very important!! 😂

You have to see watch before the playoffs was a thing and they just picked the two teams based on record to get to the bowl game. an unranked Pitt team beat one of colleges most thrilling offenses of all time from West Virginia to stop their undefeated season and miss out on the national championship

You mentioned wearing an Alabama shirt to Auburn, and yes you could do that. College football has something similar to the Premiere League where there is a section for away team fans.

12 team playoff starting 2024 Only 4 now but the regular season is already defacto playoff season. 130 teams fighting to be in the top 25 rankings . Then hoping to consistently move up each week to end up in top 4 for a shot at the "Natty", national championship ..

This wasn't compiled recently enough (and they mostly ignored the best college conference, The SEC, anyway) but my home school South Carolina destroyed certain Playoff bids for two teams in back-to-back games at the very end of last season. Destroying 5th Ranked Tennessee 63-38 at home (and it wasn't even that close) and bitter in-state rival Clemson 31-30 in Clemson. Both massive upsets.

Little man small package Daz

No you cant grab the back collar and pull them doen. Its called a horsecollar and has badly injured many many players. It was outkawed when Roy Williams was hurting ppl and ending careers.

I was at that Arizona State vs Oregon game and that place was going crazy when we won

Im a rutgers fan, their atmosphere is nothing compared to a real college powerhouse program like Texas A&M or something

I remember that Auburn Ole Miss game quite well.

Aiden, you’re not the only one to prefer college over NFL. When it comes to atmosphere, the best college football games are better than the NFL imo. I’m a huge NFL fan but, outside of my own team, I prefer college football. For many people who don’t live anywhere near an NFL franchise, they might also prefer to root for their local colleges.

15:55 hey, Syracuse made it into the discussion! Yaya! They used to be good team, Jim Brown, Ernie Davis, Dwight Freeney, Donovan McNabb... sadly their recruiting and coaching has been sub par since the 90s

In college basketball there is a 64 team tournament to decide the ncaa champion. In football there the top 4 ranked teams at the end of each season play in the college football playoff. Losing 2 games in a season essentially knocks you out of a chance at making the playoff

The proper response to Rutgers is pretty much, "who?"🤣 Im from NJ but most of us in the South Jersey (greater philadelphia area) are most passionate about Penn State. Rutgers is more of an afterthought honestly.

I don't know if you guys have settled on which game you want to come and see, but my recommendation would be to go to any of the 8 stadiums that have a 100k capacity. It's tough to beat the atmosphere of that many semi-psychotic fans all in one place. Plus any one of the 8 are almost guaranteed to be a top 25 team. btw the 8 are Michigan, Penn St, Ohio St, Tex a&m, LSU, Tennessee, Alabama, and Texas.

The playoff committee ranks the top 25 teams each week. after the regular season the top 4 teams play in the semifinals then the championship. but this playoff system is being expanded to 12 teams soon so it will get more complicated than that. college football is weird. before this 4 team playoff which only started in 2014, there was the "BCS championship" which was a computer system that determined the top 2 teams in the country and they would play for the championship. before that system, there was no official playoff or championship. the team that was voted #1 at the end of the polls was considered the champion, so you see multiple teams claim championships in seasons before the modern era.

The great thing about College football is 99% of them aren't getting paid anything. They play for pride and the love of the game. And a "chance" to get drafted. Which are also very slim odds

Love your channel!!!

I’ve been a Gator fan for 50 years and of course I love that uniform but man you can’t beat Alabama’s uniform…that’s as proper a football uniform as you’ll find. When they play Ole Miss at home when Ole Miss is wearing the powder blue helmets…that’s as good looking as a football game’s ever going to get. Although Florida’s throwback uniforms against Bama in 2006 is a pretty damn close second.

The Oregon Ducks are super sponsored. I'm 45/65 certainty on whether or not they get new jerseys made for them every game. Like they don't have a set of away jerseys and home jerseys. They play a game and then they get a brand new jersey for the next one because they're sponsored by some big companies. I can't speak for them though.

The Utes with the crimson red.

That Iowa vs Mich State goal line loss for Iowa was the most brutal game of my life (other than D Rose ACL injury vs 76ers). It was in the Big 10 Championship game and just oh so brutal! Ughhh hate seeing it lol

College Football is expanding the Playoffs to 12 teams in 2024 from 4 teams

Should definitely make the iron bowl your game you go to! I live in Auburn and it’s insane!! Its rough considering I’m a die hard Bama fan 🤣

There r 130+ FBS(highest level in college football) teams and only 4 playoff spots …(it will be expanding to 12 for the 2024-25 season) and when u only play 12 regular season games every game matters

notre dame plays navy in dublin ireland on aug 26th 2023 .

This will be the final year of the 4-team playoff format, starting next year they are expanding to 12 but it's kind of confusing how they're doing it. The 6 highest rated conference champions will earn a spot in the playoff and the 6 highest rated teams (conference champions or not) will fill out the rest of the field. The 4 highest rated conference champions will be seeded 1-4 and earn a first round bye and the rest of the teams will be seeded in order after that by their rating.

Rip Dwayne Haskins 🙏🏿 Ohio state legend and Passed away as a Pittsburgh Steeler

When in November are you flying in? GT in Atlanta will be hosting UGA. Iron bowl will be better atmosphere. Also Athens, GA is 1,5 hours from Atlanta. If your schedule is earlier in November then also look at a game here.

College football playoff consist of a 4 team playoff but they are changing it to I believe a 8 or 12 team playoff

Easily becoming the premier sports reaction channel on KZfaq. Keep up the good material.

Yea Michigan vs Ohio State is a big rivalry game. I remember i was forced to change clothese because i was wearing blue shoes during that game, it resemble Michigan too much

Keep the college football coming! 100k seat stadiums = 100k subs!! #teamball

SEC!!!!!!

Next year, there will be a 12 team play-off for the top 12 ranked teams in the highest level of college football. Currently, there is only a 4 team play-off ( 2 semifinal games and the championship). ...A defensive player can tackle a player by grabbing his shirt, but he cannot grab the shirt "collar". ...I agree with you guys that Oregon's green uniforms and duck logo is cool. Also, Syracuse's orange uniforms are cool. I hate the all-black and all-white uniforms many teams wear. They are so boring.

Army Navy game is always huge. Air Force Coast Guard game not so much. Space Force is still looking for space 🚀 cadets.

Auburn vs Alabama good choice. It's the famous "iron bowl" game . Will be one of the most popular games of that week. Plus you'll be able to walk the Uni of Bo Jackson and many others...

Army, Navy and Air Force are in college sports because they are military academies after graduating they start active duty.

So Navy, Army and Air Force have Academies that are colleges as well. They are college aged kids that play other colleges

Lets go Sun Devils!!!! I was at the game at 5:09

College football is tough when it comes to losses. For the top teams 1 loss can lose your season unless it's late in the season and against another top team. You lose to a lower team your screwed

Try and go to a night game they are prime time games the atmosphere is much higher !

They are expanding the playoffs in the next couple years.

I’m all for Big Ten ball, but this was def made by a Ohio State fan 😂😂

Don't go see Aub v Alabama this year. Auburn is down and have a brand new coach this year so the game will likely not be competitive even though they do rally when they play each other. LSU is at Bama this year and both teams are projected to be in the top 3 this year. We also always play them after both teams have a by week so both teams are rested. I would say we are Bama's second or third biggest rival after Aub and Tenn.

College football atmosphere is crazy but come NFL playoff time and trust the atmosphere in those stadiums are different then during the regular season. There's a reason chiefs and Seahawks are known as the 2 loudest outdoor stadiums in the world

It's called a horse-collar tackle and it's illegal in all leagues now. I wasn't illegal then. I imagine that Ohio States in a lot of these due to the biases of the editor.

Treadwell for Ole Miss fumbled do to a snapped tibia

NCAA is the governing body over college sports but they are not involved in the top level of college football playoffs. It is the only sport/level where that is the case. The lower level football playoffs are administered by the NCAA. Rutgers, sorry to their fans, is not a good example of where to watch a college game.

Do a reaction to Chase Young he was a defense machine

since there is only 4 teams in the playoffs to make it you basically have to go undefeated in the regular season

Look at their rankings

Oregon Ducks are sponsored by Nike who was founded by an Oregon graduate.

2022-2023 College Football Pumped Up Was One of my Favorites kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lb6SbL18mb20Yok.html

Daz is American i see it in his football

College football over the NFL? Big crowds or not the the NFL has at least five 1 on 1 match-ups a game worth watching. You don't get that level of consistent competitiveness in college week in and week out.

Go VOLS!!!

top 4 teams make the playoffs in football

Yeah only the top 4 teams in college football make the national championship playoffs at the end of the season, so this is just a compilation of games where the hope of making that final 4 for a shot at the national title is over.

Oregon 🦆 Ducks uniforms 2011 National 🏆 Championship game helmets set a new benchmark. U of O is Nike University with all that Phil Knight booster money.

SCO DUCKS

There is a college football playoffs but it's 4 teams. No NFL team near me so I just watch college. Never cared about NFL

College football is wayyyyyyyy more exciting and entertaining than the NFL

Personally, i prefer college football over pro. And basketball is the opposite

The fact they still didn't know that navy plays other colleges and is the American athletic conference after like every comment in the comment section explained it in the video they did of navy vs army...wow just wow posers

I love the atmosphere of college games, but I need to watch pros when I watch sport. I need to watch the best of the best. College football is fun bc they can get away with so much more. But still, I need the best of the best when I watch.

I can’t stand bama. 😂. Course I’m a Georgia fan.

Ohio State makes it to the finals, but loses to a SEC schools.

The son is right, college has a better atmosphere.
