Colin Cowherd on NCAA football playoffs last year: “Let’s make one non negotiable rule — Indiana can never be invited again.”

NEWSFLASH: Cowherd doesn't know what he's talking about!

Mark Cuban bought them a national championship.

I've been watching "The Herd" for years. He's definitely had some bad takes that's for sure. Got this one wrong. It's shocking really what Indiana has done the last two years. Glad the u didn't win. Congrats Indiana.

He’s an idiot with a radio voice

Yes, I watch him during lunch sometimes and noticed that he will make hot takes and a few weeks later will argue the complete opposite. He has zero credibility and as you said, there are plenty of things he can claim he was right about because he argues both sides.

After Bo Nix had an off game earlier in the season he suggested the Broncos might draft a qb in the 1st round next year to replace Nix. What a freaking clown.

You do realize Indiana’s roster (21.1 million) was 2nd lowest of the CFP playoff teams.

A&M and Ohio State’s rosters were more than 50% higher at 30+ million.

I’m not saying Cuban and the donors didn’t help. They were one of the top 20 funded teams in the NCAA.

As a traditional Big Ten alum, I told someone last month that this whole idea of Indiana being good at football was new. However, when you think about it, they should have a decent draw for the *backs and receivers from Indianapolis. With a decent endowment, pretty sorority girls and a sustainable path to education for those who stick around, it was waiting to happen. Illinois has a similar track record and draw.

Purdue has been traditionally good so it is possible for Indiana schools to get QBs and lineman. IU has a Kentucky draw as well.

The one that will really mess people up is a 1-9 Northwestern heading into November. For whatever reason, they can be a sleeper team that plays competitively in the conference but loses narrowly all season, only to upset a ranked team or two at the end.

Cowherd is about engagement and attracting clicks. He basically yells into the mic the whole show. Meth or cocaine energy vibe. He's a clown.

20 mill seems to be the cost right now to play. The rest is getting a little lucky with the right guys you spent money on. I suspect OSU or Georgia with mendoza might fare better. Indiana was in fact the group of 5 level team last year and Colin was right. In football you are right until you are wrong 1 yr later. Indian should NOT have been invited last yr.

What expert predicted Seattle would destroy the niners by multiple tds? Nobody

Or that Stroud and the Texans would have 15 turnovers and implode? Nobody

Or that the Denver Pats game would go that way? Nobody

Or that Josh Allen would have his first terrible game? Nobody

Have of them said Miami wasn't good enough to even be in the payoff.

Basically, everyone is wrong 99% of the time i have found. Its crazy really, you would think they would be right 50% of the time. They get the winner right mostly, but the experts are all wrong about how these games go. This last weekend was the craziest footballl weekend ever.

All "journalism", whether it be sports, news or anything else, has always been, and will always be about soundbites and click bait. They arent here to inform, they are here to sell advertising space, babe

I always wondered what kind of people were entertained by Cowherd. Now I know, people like rojo and masked off. lol

All of those guys are full of themselves and contradict like clockwork. Stephen A and the corporate licking, race and rage baiting ESPN freaks he talks with are the worst.

Media Literacy 101: is the voice you’re listening to getting paid to be right, or paid to get and hold attention?

He’s one of the most grating people on air. One of those people that thinks every thought he has is irrefutable fact. Determined to make everything correlate to politics or “business.” One of those guys that thinks he has the answer for every problem, and he’ll tell you about it by warping an unrelated sports story to fit his theory. Yuck

Your IQ is definitely under 80 if you're paying attention to talking heads like Colin Herd, Steven A, etc.

Time to get a life, retard.

Endowments have nothing to do with football.

And then there's Iowa. Not good enough to qualify, but good enough to wreck anyone's day.

So if Indiana shouldn't be considered, JM & Tulane should?
