Greetings From The Worldwide Leader


O-Dark-30 wake-up today for the 200-mile drive down to Bristol, Conn., and the headquarters of ESPN for the Ivy League football media day. Fortunately the rush hour traffic around Hartford wasn't bad ;-)
The Hero Sports podcast predicting the champions of every FCS conference can be heard HERE. To save yourself time scrub ahead to 23:07 to hear about 3 1/2 minutes of Ivy League banter.
And so it begins.

Year 15 of Big Green Alert officially kicks off this evening with the first opponent preview, a look at defending Patriot League champion Colgate. Jacksonville will be tomorrow's post followed by Marist and then the Ivy League teams in alphabetical order.

Barring something untoward, there will be full stories on BGA Premium every day, seven days a week, until Nov. 25. To quote the Bard, or maybe it was Hank Williams, Jr., "Are you ready for some football?"

Your BGA Premium subscription not only brings you what may well be the most comprehensive coverage of any FCS program in the country but it also supports BGA Daily, which would not exist without your help.
