Hope you’re ready for some football, because it has arrived, and it’s going to be glorious.
Following Wednesday’s Super Bowl rematch between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks, we’ve got “Thursday Night Football” (technically Friday morning football, actually) as a delightful warmup ahead of our first NFL Sunday of the 2026 season. And in college, we’ve got ranked teams in action Thursday and Friday, plus a showdown between No. 1 Ohio State and No. 4 Texas on Saturday night.
