CLEMSON — Imagine Clemson opening a new college football season on Aug. 23.
Talk about playing in the heat. Memorial Stadium really would feel like Death Valley if that were the case.
Moving the college football season up a week was one of the topics discussed this past week in Asheville, N.C., as 32 Division I Conference Commissioners came together for their annual three-day summer meetings.
The college leaders are exploring the idea of moving Week 1 to Week 0. It is a discussion that some are in favor of and others are not.
It is an idea that has been explored several times in the past and, like this year, it was met with the same opposition.
