Are you ready for some football????
I hate to use that overused line, but I can’t seem to help myself. I am so ready for kickoff that I am counting down the seconds at this point. So many games, so little time!
If you’re like me, it’s hard to keep up with what game is on what channel at what time. I mean, we all can keep up with our favorite teams, but I want to get all the good games (is there any other kind of college football game?).
Anyway, last year I found this website that lists all the games that are going to be televised. College football on TV will kick off this Thursday at 7 pm eastern on ESPN when South Carolina travels to North Carolina State, a little SEC-ACC action to get the season started. But the highlight of Day One of the season will be #14 Oregon vs. #16 Boise State (10:15 pm, ESPN).
Saturday’s action has some games that are guaranteed to kick the season off in high gear. ABC will televise #13 Georgia at #11 Oklahoma State at 3:30 pm. This may be one of the best matchups of the weekend, and I have no idea what to expect. Georgia has been so Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde over the last few seasons that you just don’t know which Dawgs will show up.
But the game I (and most of the nation) am looking forward to the most is #5 Alabama vs. #7 Virginia Tech in the Chick-Fil-A College Kick-off game in Atlanta (8 pm, ABC). My gut is telling me that Alabama is ready to rock and roll… and my gut rarely lies.
I’ll have my picks of the top games in Thursday’s blog (posted well before kickoff, I promise!).
