"College football fans are incredibly loyal to their favorite team and to the sport overall," said Learfield IMG College Senior Vice President/Broadcast Operations Chris Ferris. "It's no secret they have an appetite for all things college football as soon as the season kicks off, and we know ‘College Football Blitz' and 'College Football Rewind' are two ways we can deliver more content for both the casual and the die-hard fan."

Ferris added, "Both shows feature our local radio announcers and talent we hire for the schools we're fortunate to represent, so fans know those voices well. We often consider 'College Football Blitz' the radio equivalent for college football what the 'RedZone' channel is for NFL games, while 'College Football Rewind' is something we provide to our station affiliates across the country but also make available to fans on TuneIn."
