    1. [Heather Dinich] Rich Clark said the CFP is aware of the fan sentiment and “that many fans aren’t in favor of expansion” but … “we owe it to them to make this great and that really is our intent. We did take into account their sentiment… but we decided to move forward with it.”
    2. Historically, national titles were always beauty pageants because schools were too far apart and the games too few to decide things on the field. College football fans gradually accepted the lie that only national titles matter and now an entertainment company runs the college football world.
