This time around its different with the decade off as I don't see myself picking up the Athlon magazine, but maybe I will this year just for old times sake. Here's some things I'm doing.

1. Checking here and twitter constantly

2. Playing Madden / NCAA 14- The madden thing started 7 months ago and I bought it just for this reason and it was the best thing I did. It got my skills brushed off and helped me know what to expect and despite its issues I played 230 hours of it

3. Watching YouTube rebuilds - Most of these are cringe with unrealistic stuff, but for some reason I enjoy them and its inspired me make some of my own

4. Teambuilder Ideals - A risky one since it may not be in, but I've got 5 teams I already want to create

5. Bought a PlayStation portal - I wanted to get one in hand while they are still hard to find. I will get use to it and allows me to play or check stuff at work

I don’t think Athlon is doing their magazine anymore. After the SI buyout, and then SI going full digital. But Lindys comes out end of May.

My main prerelease ritual has been taken away by NIL. I would begin to download all the Spring Perspectives for all FBS schools in PDF form (or bookmark if the guide was HTML only) as I prepared to name all the players on all the rosters. It would take me about a month to perform that task, which meant I had mostly named rosters two weeks before the season.

Having waited nearly 11 years, this year's release marks a special anticipation for the game. I sure many of you have your own pre-release ritual. Here's a few of mine: 1. Purchase of Athlon Sports/Phil Steele magazine 2. Re-watch prior year games (particularly rivalry and bowl games) 3. Play prior Madden a little more intensely (considering that past CFB games were a improved hybrid of the prior year's Madden). What are your rituals?

Were you around for the days of the website, i think it was called ncaadynasties where you would mail your memory card where he would upload the roster with the real names in it? i think that site is what originally brought me to operation sports.
