I was thinking similarly about week 0 - not a whole lot of games this weekend (in 1-A at least), and not really any matchups that are particularly interesting.
Welcome back! It felt a little empty without Texas.
No real matchups, but I'm excited to be done talking about court proceedings (hopefully). Although that said I am genuinely curious about Memphis @ UNLV
Didn't watch all of it. Glad I didn't. Sonny can't get these guys disciplined to save his life, even when they're otherwise playing well, which they did not today. Gary Patterson's legacy gets safer by the loss and it looks like it's even starting to claim a higher proportion of the playoff year.
More generally, I'm having trouble getting motivated to see this year's crops of transfers. Get that bag, boys, but I don't necessarily want to watch, at least not quite so enthusiastically. The season will probably worm its way into taking up my time, but watching the teams and fans get to know each other in August and September is not great viewing.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but the NFL feels like the purer experience right now.
I actually really like P Lew, not sure why we let him transfer. I'm guessing he didn't want to sit behind Bishop, but we've always had at least a little bit of rb by committee under Heup.

CFB is back! I'll try to follow along closer this season - had to take a bit of a hiatus last year because life got in the way.
Week 0 feels a little lackluster this year... I don't even recognize the broadcast crew on this Ireland game

I've had some of the FCS games on in the background while getting work done over the past few days, but I can't wait for the Ireland game kickoff.

UNC vs TCU

47 seconds.
No, 47 seconds.
Set it to 047.
4! 7!

We got our first safety of the season!

Safeties will never cease to be funny*

Why would you try to block that? Just play punt safe

Yeah you can tell the defense doesn't know how to tackle early, but the shamrock in the toad's mouth is a great touch
1hitsong@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 1d
Fairly even game here.

Lmao of course it ends on a walk off penalty

UNC won, but still looked pathetic.

I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm so glad the Irish get to see the absolute worst of our sport first hand.

Both teams are struggling to catch. I know it's raining, but so many misses.

TCU got absolutely swamped at the line on that 4th and 1
1hitsong@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 1d
These teams equally suck ð

Yeah, Ireland is weird like that. You have to look both ways to cross the street. ðĪŠ

Reminder: 15 seconds after the QB falls down, hit him again to make sure he's down.
That's just smart football.

NMSU @ FSU
I was expecting to turn this off early but New Mexico State is playing surprisingly well
g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1d
Or is fsu just living down to their expectations?

Holy hell, Mike sounds like he just smoked a whole pack

I can't wait for next week when, according to Dabo, the refs cause Clemson to lose to LSU.

Seeing the horned frog hand signal reminds me. Not every program needs a gang sign, I personally hate the "Vol" hand sign.

Sellout crowd today, looking forward to hearing them make an impact

Wow, UVA is on fire. Hope this is a sign of good fortune for orange teams this season

ESPN, never ever cut to the ref hat camera again.
Or, as I will now call it, the motion sickness vomit cam.

We got a blocked punt! Hell yeah, cfb is back!

Welp, no one is going perfect in this week's pick 'em. Congrats c/cfb, we made it 0 games into the season undefeated.

JSU @ NDSU
This actually could be a really good matchup

Just when you thought CBS would have a decent broadcast team you hear brian fucking kelly.
g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1d
Genuinely this is a decent game, but brian kelly can't even not be an asshole as a color commentary guy in the booth
