Let's imagine the system.
About half of the NFL is now done with their second of four preseason games. Meanwhile, Ohio State is gearing up for contests this season against Tulane and Oregon State, two of the bottom-feeders in college football. What if, just what if, those games were "preseason" contests?
Teams like Alabama, Clemson, and yes, even Ohio State, have had cupcake games on their schedules for years. While the Buckeyes play Tulane, Alabama will take on Arkansas State, Louisiana-Lafayette, and the Citadel this season, while Clemson battles both Furman and Georgia Southern.
These games are eyesores.
