When does college football season start?

I can't remember a year when the early season games were this unattractive. 3rd straight week of mostly crap games.
Have been at Commonwealth both weeks so didn’t watch much TV. But the ones I did see after getting home were FSU LSU, Texas Bama, UNC App State, Auburn Cal and maybe 1 or 2 others over the 2 weekends. Not terrible.
And Navy Memphis was a good watch last night.
 
I was speaking of UK's schedule.

Are you kidding me? The Akron game today is the most important game of Stoops tenure. A expected win but lose it and the wheels come off the program! Keeping my fingers crossed for a Music City Bowl bid!!
 
It would be a different feeling if LSU, South Carolina, A&M, and Alabama didn’t crap the bed so soon. It’s going to feel like blah weeks for the rest of the year. Georgia’s the only hope for the league.
 
I akin UK's first three games to the NFL preseason. Exhibition games that don't matter. Practice games. It's a shame that almost half of the season tucket cost goes towards these practice games

Also, I don't know why UK plays ALL of their cupcakes in the beginning. Most schools save one for November to give their team a breather. UK goes from a straight cupcake fest in September to a 2 month uninterrupted SEC meat grinder.

That's just 100% false. If alabama or lsu wins out they are 100% n the playoff. Don't see it happening but just saying.

Next season these losses would have 0% impact.

Next week. The skate of games next week is great. But random I know this has been said a bunch but Louisville schedule is so bad, two shit power 5 teams
 
Don't look for UK to change it's formula until the SEC goes to a 9 game schedule. 3 games versus garbage teams (4 if you count UofL) + 8 game SEC schedule = Bowl game.
The key is to go .500 in the SEC. Which should be the minimum acceptable record for the program IMO.
 
I know some people have 2 accounts, one for their work persona and one for personal. Some have one for here and one for on other teams or the rivals board. Me , I’m fine people knowing I’m an idiot on all boards so just one account lol.

We are kinda at the mercy of the SEC doing their scheduling though
