Wow!  So many doom and gloomers.  Just like any other market or business, the choicest of products or markets will be selected first.  However, this is sports, the "haves" cannot remain "haves" if they lack victims.  And because e this is college sports, which was and is built on a large number of colleges,, the pool must be large or you will loose many fans.  Not everyone will tune in to watch Alabama beat up SEC opponents outside of SEC territory.  Most people outside of B1G territory don't care about tOSU.  Once the prime cuts are chosen, the choice cuts will be divvied up.  Then, the lesser cuts.  SU may not be a prime but, but is clearly a choice cut.

Simy put, CFB wit one top tier of 30-40 schools will flop.  The product will be NFL light and will lose too much of the rest to I vest a Saturday.  Sure, fans will watch some games but not l day and every Saturday.  That is why they need a broad spectrum of schools.

If one thing is clear, we should all recognize the greed of the networks has been at play for decades hiding the real value of live sports from the schools and conferences.  Also, the schools and conferences are at fault for not listening to real business people who have tried for decades to help them.

Anyway, SU will be fine.  SU needs to stay focused on improving what they are doing academically and athletically.  Their history speaks for itself.
