College football ready to kick off

It's that wonderful time of year again: football season. I love it.

Who's going to be the next freshman stud? Who's going to win the Heisman? More importantly, who's going to be the No. 1 at the end of the year? Secondly, how much controversy will the BCS cause this season?

I'll tell you one thing I don't like about college football: no trading cards until after the season. I know releasing a set would go against several NCAA rules, but it would still be nice. Shoot, I'd even take a set that is modeling after EA Sports' NCAA 2010 where the players are just QB #3 or RB #20 and the likenesses aren't too similar.

Now I'm sure that set would never go over with the majority of the collecting population but for those lesser known players, don't you think it'd be the thrill of a lifetime finding a card that is of them? I'm sure the majority of players wouldn't care, but if I played college football, I'd find that pretty sweet.

I'm sure you saw this news when it came out, but just a reminder:
