One of the quietest off-seasons in memory erupted suddenly last month in the form of a pair of scandals at Maryland and Ohio State, leaving myself and many other college football fans feeling a bit less enthusiastic about the year ahead. I can say that I'm not looking forward to being reminded of those scandals throughout the season, especially if the Buckeyes make a run at the College Football Playoff, as they are well positioned to do. There's a negative effect such situations have had on my ultimate enjoyment of the sport of late. College football is imperfect, and always has been, but the compounding recent reminders of its imperfections are especially distasteful.
