Countdown to Kickoff

Beginning Aug. 29, and continuing every Friday for the duration of the football
season, FOX Sports 1’s flagship highlight, news and opinion show, FOX SPORTS LIVE,
features a dedicated hour of college football programming with the newly minted FOX SPORTS
LIVE: "COUNTDOWN TO KICKOFF".
Slated to air weekly during the 12:00 AM ET hour, the show activates all reaches of FOX Sports’ deep college football talent stable to provide viewers with a dynamic, entertaining, and informational head start on all of Saturday’s action. “Few things in sports rival the enthusiasm and passion fans have for college football,” FOX SPORTS LIVE executive producer Michael Hughes said. “We are really excited about this concept and feel like we have an awesome group of insiders and analysts who have covered
the game and competed at its highest level.”
In-studio analysts include Joel Klatt, Matt Leinart, Petros Papadakis and Dave Wannstedt. In addition, FOX Sports’ trio of college football insiders, Bruce Feldman, Stewart Mandel and Clay Travis, are on hand to provide news breaks and insights on each week’s most relevant topics, including explanations and analysis of the sport’s first-ever playoff system.
