Duke Press Release
Date: August 10, 2026 | “Kicking off the 2026 college football season in Durham at Brooks Field at Wallace Wade Stadium is going to be fantastic,”
Game 72: Troy Trojans @ Old Dominion Monarchs
All I can say is that the show was more evidence of ODU punching above its weight class. It seems like everything at ODU seems like it is from a program above where ODU is in the Sun Belt, from the stadium, luxury seating, a parachute jump before the game, the announcer (I will explain in a bit), and the drone show. Well done, ODU, well done.
Game 71: Alabama Crimson Tide @ South Carolina Gamecocks
The South Carolina adventure didn’t start at the airport — it began in the fluorescent aisles of Costco and Publix. Since some of the crew was driving to Columbia, it seemed smart to stock up before departure instead of scrambling for supplies once we landed.
Game 70: South Alabama Jaguars @ Georgia State Panthers
If you arrived late to this one, congratulations, you probably missed six touchdowns in the first eight drives. The game opened with Georgia State going three-and-out, a performance that suggested they were still mentally in the locker room. South Alabama promptly took advantage of the provided short field and rolled 53 yards in 10 plays for a touchdown, establishing early that defense would not be attending tonight’s event.
Game 69: Baylor Bears @ Oklahoma State Cowboys
From there, we wandered around campus and through OSU Athletics and the Hall of Fame, which were admittedly impressive. We did some more wandering about campus before attending the guided athletics tour which took us right back to the same ground we had already walked earlier, just now with some extremely limited narration.
Oklahoma State Press Release
Date: August 18, 2025 | “Oklahoma State and Stillwater have long been on our radar,”
Game 68: Eastern Michigan Eagles @ Ohio Bobcats
And downtown Athens is a nice walkable area with nice shops and restaurants. But there are a lot of hills.
Game 67: Auburn Tigers @ Kentucky Wildcats
After a drink we headed over to Burl Arcade and the 1980’s. Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, pinball, etc., it is all here. It was a blast from the past and a flood of memories from mid-island mall arcade and high school. And some of the games at Burl still cost $0.25.
Game 66: Kennesaw State Owls @ Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders
We headed into the beer garden which is located in one of the end zones. This is a nice touch. It provides excellent views of the field and you can get close up. It was a good spot to watch warm ups.
Kentucky Press Release
Date: October 21, 2024 | Lexington has been a place that we have been trying to get to for quite some time and I am very interested in all the things the city has to offer including the horse racing and bourbon.
Game 65: Maryland Terrapins @ Indiana Hoosiers
New head coach Curt Cignetti and QB Kurtis Rourke lead the Indiana Hoosiers to a 42-28 over the Maryland Terrapins, and a 5-0 start to the 2024 season. Indiana was able to overcome a minus 4 turnover margin by coming up big on defense at the right time with Kurtis Rourke throwing for 359 yards in the rain and wind.
Indiana Press Release
Date: September 16, 2024 | Indiana is off to an incredible start in 2024 and is scoring at a rapid pace…
Game 64: Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles @ Louisiana Rajin’ Cajuns
It was this access that led us to a sign that said “Welcome to Da’ Swamp”. Now, according to Sam, Louisiana started using the Swamp moniker 2 years before Florida. A very quick, and I mean very quick, internet search of this reveals that there may be some truth to this.
Game 63: Florida Atlantic Owls @ Charlotte 49ers
The UNCC campus is a very pretty campus. It was bigger than I remember as I have been here before when looking at colleges with Jake. But it was just as beautiful as I remember.
Charlotte Press Release
Date: October 23, 2023 | “And with the 49ers coming off a big road win and FAU coming off a disappointing loss to UTSA, this should be an interesting game. ”
