2018 Season Review: September Edition

Hard to believe that the first month is behind us already! And a 5-week month to boot!

Still much football to be played, but there are plenty of takeaways to digest!

Week 5 wrap up

Now we are finally getting to the meat of the schedule.  And, with it being week 5, that means that any currently undefeated teams will be looking for bowl eligibility next week.

Week 4 wrap up

Let's just keep the introduction short this week.  Quite a few teams had conference games.  In fact, only three teams (all Pac-12) have not had conference games yet this season.

Hurricane Florence and the ESPN schedule shuffle

With the hurricane, or at least threat of one, causing multiple cancellations this weekend, ESPN had to scramble to fill their schedule.  This allowed a few games originally planned for online only broadcasts to get promoted to real channels.

Yes, this is one of those "research" posts that won't matter in the grand scheme of things, but it's kind of fun for those of us interested in the broadcasting side of college football.

Week 3 wrap up

It was a weird week as a hurricane demolished ESPN's lineup, and will likely cause a few teams to only have 11 games this season.  Still had a few conference games, though.

We finally have every division with a conference game completed at this point, and next week should see a large uptick in conference games start.

Week 2 wrap up

I know this post is a little later than usual, but I got distracted by finally breaking the curse and seeing the Hokies win in person, and then dealing with preparations for the upcoming hurricane that is greatly affecting the week 3 schedule.

Week 1 wrap up

We're back!

But wait, did that just happen?  VT comes into Tallahassee in a nationally televised game with Kirk Herbstreit on the call, and with a no-name defense, and embarrasses Florida State?

I felt like I was in Bizarro World.

Oh, and it was a conference game, so the wheels started spinning early.
