Week 0 Gamethread: College Football’s BACK!

Welcome back to college football.

Today’s not opening day, no matter what the NBC talking heads will try to tell you—that came on Thursday night in Valley City, North Dakota, when the Valley City State Vikings took down their rivals the Jamestown Jimmies for the Paint Bucket.

We’ve got some perfectly cromulent football, though, for the second day of the season, and here’s your place to talk about those games. Usual rules apply: no illegal streams, no porn, no questioning Dead Read’s rules.

Here are the games you’ll get:

Because I lack the grace, charm, and wit of Dead Read, I won’t leave you with a sonnet. Rather, here’s the greatest free-verse poem ever written:

Enjoy the games. Thanks for joining us here at OTE.
