3. Subscription to your local cable company's college football package. Otherwise, spend 60 bucks in a bar every Saturday and then do the math. Don't get cheap. Buy the package and know that you won't miss any worthwhile football games. You're welcome.



2. A workable alarm clock. This has a two-fold function. For West Coast fans: Set your alarm for 6:45 AM so you have time to get some coffee going (don't forget to add the Kahlua to it) while you wait for the 7 AM College GameDay Show.

For East Coast fans, set your alarm clock on the snooze setting to go off every 15 minutes after 10 PM so you can keep awake and watch the Boise State, Hawai'i, and Fresno State games. Who cares if you don't follow those teams? This is your chance to watch football for 15 hours straight. Are you a fan or not?



1. A laptop computer to start the smack. Come on! You know the second your team beats Georgia Southern, you will be online looking for any article that has been written about them.

Start commenting, start blogging, start delivering some beatdowns to your team's rival—who hopefully lost—and be the obnoxious jerk we know you will be after emptying a keg of beer and having a few Bloody Marys to avoid a hangover on Sunday.



It's all about the experience. It's all about the first week of college football. You've got all this pent-up frustration, and now, in three days, you can let it all go. Enjoy it. You earned it.

And I'll be waiting for ya Thursday night.

IT'S TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
