Gearing up for college football

1F1 Tuba pivots The beginning of the college football season is just a month away, so it’s time to pass along some excellent web resources to prepare for the season:

The no. 1 college football resource on the Web is the Web Resources page over at Jay Christensen‘s Wizard of Odds, which is the best one-stop information source for college football on the Web.

This college football schedule template from the Strangest Brew allows you to prepare a page of schedules that you can tailor for your favorite teams and conferences. Very slick indeed.

The Joe Cribbs Car Wash provides this handy Paperless Preview Project that provides convenient preview information from various publications for all 120 Division I teams. Read about your favorite teams and their opponents, all in one place.

Finally, the NY Times’ fine college sports blog, the Quad, continues its pre-season countdown analysis of all 120 D-I teams with no. 35, the Texas A&M Aggies (earlier Quad previews profiled Rice and Houston). Not much is expected of the Aggie football team this fall, so the best entertainment this season at Kyle Field may well be new Aggie defensive coordinator, Joe Kines. The video below is a halftime interview of Kines while he was serving briefly as Alabama’s interim head coach during a bowl game after the head coach had been fired. As they say in the coaching business, Kines is an "original" and appears to have what it takes to become a beloved figure in the special culture of Aggieland.

One thought on “Gearing up for college football

  1. You have to love a coach that states that all you have to do is go out and play when you have key injuries!
    In other words it doesn’t matter who’s on the field they should be giving their heart, especially in a bowl game!
