Show Notes
ESPN's Bill Connelly joins Josh on the first in-season edition of the I-80 Football Show to dive into his new book on college football; Forward Progress: The Definitive Guide to the Future of College Football. They discuss why he decided to write it, the 2006 Rose Bowl being the starting point, and the concerns and frustrations fans have with the sport. Plus:
- Bill's "What not to do" list for CFB.
- Where pay-for-play is going in the sport.
- The decades-long fight to bring a playoff to the sport.
- What soccer can teach us about CFB.
They finish with a look at why Texas Tech is so intriguing in 2025 and beyond, as well as Matt Rhule's big third year at Nebraska.
