I'm excited the college football season is almost here.
A week from today a handful of college teams kick off, including Portland State, which opens at home against Division III Eastern Oregon Thursday night. Not much to see there, but I might catch a little of it.
Speaking of mismatches, Oregon opens at home against Nicholls State next Saturday, a team that likely couldn't beat PSU. It would have been better for all concerned if PSU and Oregon had schemed to play each other in a friendly in-stater to start the season. They've done that a couple of times in the past decade.
Oregon State also opens at home against a supposed lesser opponent in Eastern Washington, but EW plays at a higher level than either PSU or Nicholls State. I'll catch some of that one as well.
A couple of years ago, PSU played both Oregon and Arizona State and got crushed both times. They have Cal on Sept. 7; that is probably enough sacrifice for the big bucks in one year.
Saturday morning, I'll be ready to watch games from the Midwest and east coast. I watch all I can the first Saturday of every season.
After that, I discriminate a little more and pick a couple of games each weekend that sound appealing, while never passing on the Ducks.
Here's a rundown of the TV broadcast schedule.
That's some serious couch potato stuff there.
