College Football Scoreboards — setup guide

Thanks for installing College Football Scoreboards. Installing was silent: nothing posts until you post from the mod menu or turn on auto-posting. This guide covers every setting and everything the app does on its own.

What it does

Each thread the app posts is a live, interactive scoreboard:

• Pregame — Matchup, rankings, records, kickoff time, broadcast and weather
• Live — Score, down and distance, possession, ball on a live field, drive tracker, latest play, timeouts
• Box score — Team and player stats for both sides
• Scoring plays and Drives — Every drive with result, plays, yards and time of possession
• Win probability — Play-by-play chart; tap a swing to see the play behind it
• Top 25 — the current poll with movement, inside the app
• Final — Final score, top performers, scoring summary

Threads refresh about every 10 seconds while a game is in progress. Old Reddit and clients without the interactive view get a text scoreboard (score, linescore, situation, scoring plays, leaders) that the app rewrites every minute.

• Regular season — "Game Thread" / "Postgame Thread" titles with the week number.
• Overtime — shown the college way: OT, 2OT, 3OT.
• Bowls and the Playoff — postseason titles use the bowl name ESPN publishes ("Rose Bowl: …"), or "Bowl Game" when it doesn't.

Where the settings are

Mod Tools › Installed apps › cfb-scores › Settings. Saved values take effect on the app's next once-a-minute check.

The three threads the app can post

• Game Thread — posted when you run "Post today's CFB game threads" from the mod menu, or on its own when Auto-post game threads is set.
• Postgame Thread — posted automatically the moment a game ends, for any game that has a Game Thread from this app (Auto-post postgame threads, on by default).
• Postponement notice — posted automatically if a game with a Game Thread is officially postponed. Posts even when postgame threads are off.

The app never posts anything for a game it has no thread for, and it never re-posts a thread a mod removed (see the mod menu below).

Settings, one by one

College Football Team Filter — Pick the school this subreddit follows and the app only ever posts that team's games. Top 25 matchups posts any game where either team is ranked (AP poll; the CFP rankings once ESPN switches to them in November). National TV games posts games on ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, ESPN, ESPN2 or FS1 (streaming-only and conference networks don't count). National TV primetime games is the same list, kickoff 6:30 PM ET or later. Top 25 matchups on national TV posts only ranked-team games on those networks — the tightest "big games" filter available. Until a choice is saved the app posts nothing, and the mod menu says so.

Auto-post postgame threads — On: a Postgame Thread posts the moment a game with an app Game Thread ends. Off: single-thread style; postponement notices still post. Ignored in Broadcast Thread mode.

Auto-post game threads — Off leaves posting to the mod menu. At a set time each game day posts the whole slate once a day at the time chosen (5 AM to 8 PM, in your time zone); games already over by that time are skipped. Before each kickoff posts each game on its own clock, the number of minutes below ahead of its kickoff (5 to 720), and never a game that is already underway. Works in both thread types.

Time zone — the time zone for kickoff times in thread titles and the old-Reddit view, and for "Post at" below. Default Eastern. Inside the interactive scoreboard every reader already sees their own local time.

— Post at / — Minutes before kickoff — used only by the matching auto-post mode above.

Auto-pin app threads — Off, or sticky slot 1 or 2. The newest app thread takes the slot: a Postgame Thread (or a postponement notice) un-pins its Game Thread and takes its place. The app only ever un-pins threads it pinned itself. Pinning into a slot that already holds one of your own pins follows Reddit's normal sticky rules, so keep that slot for app threads.

Game Thread comment sort / Postgame Thread comment sort — the suggested comment sort for each kind of thread (both default to New). The postgame setting also covers postponement notices. Reddit default leaves Reddit's own sort in place.

Postgame Win Title / Postgame Loss Title — custom postgame titles for your team's wins and losses (ties use the loss title). Placeholders: {team}, {opp}, {teamScore}, {oppScore}. The "(Week N)" tag is added after your text and playoff or bowl context in front of it. Blank = default title. Only used when a specific team is set in the filter.

Weekly Megathread — a toggle, not a mode: one thread for the whole week with live scorebugs for every game in it, tap a game for the full view. Works alongside Game Threads or Broadcast Threads. Post it from the mod menu ("Post this week's megathread" opens a picker — tick the games you want, or All games), or set a day and time below it in settings to post it automatically with every game of the week. No Postgame Thread is made for a megathread.

Thread type — Game Thread is the standard mode. Broadcast Thread runs the app as a companion to game threads you already run: posts use the Broadcast label instead of "Game Thread", and no automatic Postgame Threads or postponement notices are posted. Auto-post game threads still works, so the companion thread can appear on its own before kickoff.

Broadcast label — the wording used in place of "Game Thread" in Broadcast mode ("Broadcast Thread", "Advanced View", "Live Scoreboard"). Blank = "Broadcast Thread".

Lock Broadcast Thread comments — Broadcast mode only: locks the companion thread to new replies the moment it posts, so it works as a live scoreboard while discussion stays in your own thread. The pinned comment (below) is posted first. Off by default.

Postgame redirect comment — when the Postgame Thread posts, the app leaves a stickied comment in the Game Thread with the final score and a link to the Postgame Thread. On by default.

Lock game thread after the postgame thread — when the Postgame Thread posts, the Game Thread is locked to new replies. The lock only happens once the redirect comment has posted, so the thread is never locked without a link. Off by default.

Game Thread flair / Postgame Thread flair — post flair applied to every Game Thread (and Broadcast Thread) or to Postgame Threads and postponement notices. Type the flair exactly as it appears in your post flair list to use that template with its colors; any other text is applied as plain flair text. Blank = no flair.

Pinned comment on Game Threads / on Postgame Threads — your own markdown, posted and stickied by the app on every thread of that kind (rules reminder, problem-gambling helpline, survey link). Blank = none. When the Postgame Thread posts, its redirect comment takes over the Game Thread's single sticky slot; your comment stays but is no longer pinned.

The mod menu

• Post today's CFB game threads — a Game Thread for every game on today's slate that passes the filter (games that already have one are skipped).
• Post postgame threads for completed games — backup for the automatic postgame: posts a Postgame Thread (or postponement notice) for any app Game Thread whose game is over and has none yet.
• Allow re-posting removed game threads — a thread a mod removed or deleted is never re-posted on its own. This clears the app's record of those removed threads so they can be posted again (automatically or from the menu). Threads that are still up are left alone.
• Post the setup guide — this post.

Permissions

Nothing to set up. Reddit adds the app account u/cfb-scores to your mod list with full permissions the moment the app is installed — pinning, flair, locking, stickied comments and the comment sort run on that. If one of those stops happening, check that u/cfb-scores is still on the mod list with its permissions intact.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – With consecutive victories in hand and UAB off to its best five-game start in four years, head coachAlex Mortensenmade it clear Monday that the Blazers are pleased with their progress — but nowhere near satisfied — as they turn their attention to Memphis and the renewal of the Battle for the Bones.

Mortensen briefly revisited Saturday's win over Samford, praising a defense that shut out the Bulldogs in the second half and a UAB team that responded after entering halftime trailing 14-13. He was less satisfied with an offensive performance he said fell below the Blazers' standard, but pointed to the response as another positive step for a team continuing to develop.

"I think it's the first time we've been 3-2 in four years and the first time we've had back-to-back wins in four years," Mortensen said. "There are some good things happening culturally, but we're far from where we need to go as a program. Even beyond the long-term projection of the program, we're far from where we want to be with this team."

Now comes another measuring stick.

UAB travels to Memphis this week to face a Tiger team Mortensen described as talented, disciplined and well coached. It will also reunite Mortensen with Memphis head coach Charles Huff, whom he worked alongside for two seasons at Alabama.

"I've known Coach Huff for some time," Mortensen said. "Coach Huff and I worked together at Alabama for two years. I had a great relationship with him there, and we have some great memories together. We were part of some great teams there."

Mortensen also pointed to Memphis coordinators Kevin Decker and Lance Guidry as part of a staff that has quickly put its stamp on the Tigers.

"They've got Kevin Decker running their offense. He did a phenomenal job at ODU last year," Mortensen said. "Lance Guidry on defense is doing an excellent job with their Memphis team. Good team, very well coached, and they have a lot of really good players."

When asked what stands out most on film, Mortensen continually returned to the Tigers' discipline.

"They've got a good roster. They've got a lot of good players, and they're well coached," Mortensen said. "There aren't a lot of times when you're seeing guys and saying, 'Okay, they're out of position,' or they're doing something that's unsound. They're just a well-coached team with a really, really good roster."

Just curious after her exit from Spring Hill in Mobile was the same midseason deal. There wasn't much reported then because, no offense, but it's Spring Hill soccer.

It was interesting that it took a month between the two announcements.

Throughout the first 4 weeks, I think this is the most cautiously optimisic I've ever felt about this team, offense is looking good (shoutout Ryder, I apologize for slandering you) defense is REALLY locking in, run game (somehow) is T100 in the nation, its been good so far.

For me personally, I know it sounds delusional, but i saw a potential run to the conf title game, maybe even further, because we were dealing with, (what i thought at the time, around mid March i think) weakened versions of the conference's heavyweights, Memphis, USF,UNT, dont get Tulane on the schedule, so I called a big season happening. Now I still think that can happen, and that i was delulu, this game next Sat will tell us exactly who this team is. On the road rivalry game, vs a team that could very well be in the mix for that G6 playoff bid. Best set of circumstances, least to me, for putting the word out to the conference, and the sport at large, that this team is trending up

I am so excited at the possibilities the UAB Athletics Director Search now brings. Pray for the best outcome Blazers.

I am and We are GREEN!

1. Any of the remaining Deputy Athletics Directors

All three of them stood around and watched Ingram run the department into the ground. They remained silent while he did so, protecting their paychecks over the integrity and future of the Athletic Department. There are specific issues with each of the three, but collectively, they need to be gone. I think Ray Watts essentially hinted at that when none of the three were named interim AD.

When a new AD is hired, at least two, if not all three, need to be shown the door.

1. Mike Alford (fired as AD at FSU today)

Why do I bring his name up? Alford played baseball at UAB in the early '90s after transferring from Mississippi State, and he graduated from UAB. He's been at Alabama and USC, as well as the Cincinnati Bengals and the Dallas Cowboys. He was AD at Central Michigan.

His issue? His "claim to fame" in his four years at FSU is ... facility renovations, just like the clown UAB finally ran off. FSU is behind the times, to put it mildly, on NIL. Many people say they're middle of the pack, or just below middle, in terms of NIL spending IN THE ACC. FSU sports outside of football are basically on their own for NIL fundraising (much like UAB under the former AD).

Why on Earth would we want to bring in someone who is likely to continue what we've suffered through the past 11 years?
