3. Weather becomes an even bigger factor

Is weather a huge deal when it comes to College Football? Well, not necessarily.

If you had a season that started in January or February, there are going to be many northern schools who will play half their season in freezing temperatures and- at least during some points- snowy weather.

In the southern portion of the country, you’d see a different problem: Rain.

Most of the time, the south experiences a mild winter compared to the northern states, but the spring time is when we can see heavy amounts of rain- more so than in the fall.

Playing in and around the weather would be another hurdle to overcome.
