The focus group will take place on Wednesday evening, 7/30, at 7:30pm CST. We would greatly value your input. Details and instructions are listed below. If you have any questions, please feel free to private message me through GMG.com or reply to the thread. Thanks!

Qualitative Research Project About Fan's Attitudes and Perceptions Toward an NCAA Division 1-A College Football Playoff System

As part of a research study for a graduate journalism program, we are conducting an online focus group to gauge the attitudes and perceptions of a possible Division I A college football playoff system among fans.

The focus group should last about 1 hour and the moderators will pose questions to the group in order to better understand the pros and cons, as well as overall feelings about this much debated topic. This focus group will be held Wednesday, July 30, 2008 at 7:30 p.m. CST. Please visit the following link at that time to participate.
