Felt like yesterday was the longest FCS game of all time. Usually those barely break the 3 hour mark. With all of those running plays it should not have been that long. But thanks to the real issue with game length, it was a longer game than normal. Unacceptable to have all of those commercial breaks and for each to be 2:55. Even worse is the 3:10 breaks for real games.
If NBC can find a way to make money off of EPL and no commercials, why in the heck can't ESPN/FOX figure out how to make money off of 2 min CFB commercial breaks?
The problem was never too many plays (what they are trying to reduce). The problem was going from 2:20 breaks in the old days to 3:10 now AND that we have too many breaks. There is barely any football being played. Reducing the football isn't going to make things better.
