  "account": "In a major shake-up for college football, ESPN has secured a five-year, $1.7 billion deal to expand the College Football Playoff (CFP) field, according to sources. This decision comes after ESPN's $7.1 billion investment in SEC media rights. The network aims to push its own narrative and shape public opinion by airing the sole college football selection show, effectively sidelining the unbiased committee process. Ohio State, in particular, is facing increased scrutiny after firing special teams coordinator Robby Discher and potentially having missing the CFP in any given year become a reason for dismissal. Additionally, the Ohio State men's basketball team secured a win over Marshall, leading to the retirement of former player Jessica Davenport in a jersey ceremony.",
  "summary": "College football is effectively over as you know it. The only question is, am I talking about expanding the CFP to 24 teams or Ohio State being average at best? Who can say? Check out our news roundup anyway.",
