College football Week 1 thread: Chasin’ That Neon Deion Rainbow

Except when the Wildcats play Iowa. Someone will win that one 7-3.

 

You're starting the second half of Game 1 trailing Rutgers by 24-0, and dammit, you're glad you got to succeed Pat Fitzgerald.

 

Nexstar, which owns our local ABC affiliate, and DirecTV have been in a pissing match for about five months now. Of course, most bars in the area have DirecTV, which means no LSU-Florida State out tonight at my regular haunt. Didn't hit too hard until football started, but people are pretty upset now.

 

Yeah I’ve been a Spectrum cable customer for all of one month and I’m already having to replace them with YouTube TV for same reason: football.

 

Everyone trying to figure out where Deion's coaching next and I keep saying "It's one game."

 

One of the teams will win. The rest of the world will lose.

 

Ehhh, as much as I hate to say it, they won in a way that's going to win them quite a few games in 2023. Big-play guys. They had four receivers with 100+ yards against a top-25 team.

They're obviously going to be media darlings, so it's not like Prime Time won't see prime time.

 

The Nexstar thing affects three channels for us on Direct TV in the Indianapolis market, but luckily I can put an antenna off the back deck and pick up Dayton channels, so we’re good.

I assume they’ll get a deal done the day before the NFL starts.

 

Me when SJSU is on network TV but the little Spartan wants to watch Daniel Tiger

 

Two televisions has saved my sanity. My wife now thanks me for talking her into a two TV set-up.
