Its sole purpose is to provide somewhat of a ‘speed bump’ on the Road to WrestleMania and while that’s all well and good, it hasn’t really had the desired impact since its inception. Well, actually we may be being a tad too nice - it just hasn’t worked whatsoever.

The competition, which is set to replace most international friendlies for CONCACAF sides, will be split into three divisions based on the strength of the teams and will feature promotion and relegation.

Rockstar confirmed the game’s updated release earlier today in response to a user’s support question. In our initial story yesterday, we speculated that the studio would announce the game this coming Sunday, seeing as how October 26, 2014 would mark 10 years since San Andreas first released. We’ll understand if some of you think this is a much better outcome, though. As you may have noticed, GTA: San Andreas is no longer available for download as an Xbox Originals title, but you may be willing to let that go since this newer version comes complete with 720p resolution, enhanced draw distance, and a brand new achievement list....

Could three SEC teams make the CFP when it’s all said and done? That’s a legitimate question and will prompt catcalls of “SEC Bias,” but the committee did what it usually does and veered from the traditional polls.
