Week 1 College Football TV Schedule

College football is back! (If you don’t count last week’s games)

NCAA Football: CFP National Championship-Clemson vs Alabama Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports

It’s the most wonderful time of the year: College football is back!

Well, maybe it hasn’t been so wonderful for Purdue fans the last 4+ years, and some (including myself) would argue basketball season is the most wonderful time of the year, but for now we can focus on football.

I’ve always loved opening weekend of CFB and how it occurs over Labor Day weekend; games every day from Thursday through Monday, with most days having great match-ups.

We get these schedules from SB Nation, and while most blogs will just post it as is, 2 years ago I started changing a few things that you all have enjoyed. Though the format of the tables and our site has changed, I was able to create a separate table with all the games Big Ten teams and Purdue’s non-conference opponents are playing. That way, if you’re only interested in those games, they’re a bit easier to find.

If you have any other suggestions for our schedule format, do let me know. Have a great football weekend!
