That's the projected lineup. There could be a game-time adjustment, LOL. :)

No Wyoming at Air Force??? Thats ok, my wife and I will be flying from Georgia to Colorado Springs and watch it in person for you!

Very envious!

Would love to see a game at Air Force some day.

My heavens. Quo is more obsessed with watching college football than the Dazzler is with watching aerial videos, via youtube, of U.S. cities.

Disturbing for both men.

I used to watch all day, every day. Now, I hope to catch a half of any game then watch highlights late at night! That’s been my regular for a couple years. Wife and I have had 2 boys in the last 3 years so I got little free time to myself - which is fine, I’m enjoying it.

I get that. Friday is my wife and my date day, we spend all day together. Saturday, I watch CFB all day while drinking beer and eating pizza. My wife goes out shopping that day. We're both happy, LOL.

And yes, I watch College Gameday (and Big Noon Saturday) before, and watch College Football Final for the highlights of all the games I saw Sunday morning, LOL.

Only working with one screen at the moment, but usually jump between 1-2 games on each timeslot when my game isn't on.

Here's my day:

12pm(until 2pm game):
SC-Tennessee (played SC a few weeks ago)
commercial breaks: Arkansas-Mississippi

2pm(until 3:30 game):
ODU-Marshall (played Marshall a few weeks ago)

3:30(until my game):
SMU-Navy (upcoming game against Navy)
commercial breaks: FAU-UAB (interview panel)
commercial breaks: North Tex-Missouri (buddy is a huge Mazzo guy)

6pm:
ECU-UCF (hold my calls)

9pm:
Memphis-Tulsa (we play Memphis later)
commercial breaks: End of UTEP-Southern Miss (hello old friends)
commercial breaks: UTSA-Western Tucky (interview panel v2)
commercial breaks: LSU-Tucky

May I ask you to please add channels so we can use you as a de facto TV guide?

You're living a better quality of life in my personal opinion. My typical Saturday looks something like this.

8am-11am... 2 soccer games for 3 kids
12pm-1pm... lunch with wife and kids
1pm-3pm... youngest 3 kids down for nap, chill with my wife
3pm-6pm... play outside with my kids
6pm-9pm... watch ECU game with the kids and wife
9pm-Bedtime... maybe pick whatever game seems somewhat interesting or with a little luck

I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm actually glad I don't have the time to watch football all day long anymore. I don't think I knew what I was missing.

Remind me to go watch football at Quo’s if I’m ever in New Orleans in the fall.

All day is too much. Did you ever watch TV for 10 hours & go to sleep thinking, "that was a great day!"?

1 game is more than sufficient.

And as they get older, your kids may very well share your passions. All three of mine love watching Cincinnati sports with me.

My 4-year-old son LOVED going to his first UC game last year. Last week, he cried when I told him I was going to the UC game at Notre Dame with his uncle (instead of him).

Boise State @ BYU at 2:30 CT is worthy of at least the laptop.

I'm a channel flipper or watching on Xfinity or ESPN/FOX/CBS phone app while at kids' games, running errands, or attending BYU games.

10 AM (MT)[partially at home, partially on phone]
Primary: West Virginia @ Baylor(FS1) (BYU plays Baylor next week)
Backup: Oklahoma vs Texas(ABC), Arkansas @ Ole Miss(ESPN)
Reserve*: Maryland-Ohio State(FOX), South Carolina-Tennessee(ESPN2)
*Quick check only during (imperfectly) aligned commercial breaks/half-time

1:30 PM [in-person and on phone]
Primary: Attend Boise State @ BYU game(ABC)
Phone apps will be primed to:
- Penn State @ Iowa(FOX), Georgia @ Auburn (CBS)
- Wake Forest (ESPN2)(are they for-real?)

6:00 PM [at home, while exercising]
Primary: Ewetes @ USC(FOX), Alabama @ TAMU(CBS) - whichever is closer, more exciting
Backup: Michigan @ Nebraska(ABC)
Reserve: LSU-Kentucky(SECN), Wyoming-Air Force(CBSSN)

8:30 PM
Primary - something else
Check In: UCLA @ Arizona(ESPN)
Quick Check: End of Memphis @ Tulsa(ESPN2) or UNM @ SDSU(FS1), if either game is close

Only one game for me this Saturday. Flying out to St. Louis Friday and driving to Colombia for the North Texas/Missouri game.

I would like to add that this is all very subjective. If Quo (or anybody else) derives great pleasure from watching college football for 12 hours or more and, as such, is a happy person ... that could be good for the people in that person's life.

I enjoy watching "parts" of two to three games each Saturday. I actually last night watched some youtube video of the UConn vs. Vanderbilt game, as a missed a good bit of it last Sat.

Be careful with that luck or you are going to end up with 4 kids.

I wish I had more kids. I only have one kid as my wife was unable to have more. Kids are a blessing.

This is solid wisdom as usual from the Dazzler. If Quo (or anyone else) has a passion for football as one of their primary interests, I applaud the Saturday football marathon. If you love something, go big on it.

It’s been more fun than I imagined. I don’t really miss watching football. I much prefer to do something like “play foods” with my toddler or make my baby laugh by making animal noises.

My wife loves college football so I get to watch.
Don't watch the pros on Sunday.
