What’s the best way to track Saturday scores?

Submitted by Mattinboots on November 12th, 2023 at 9:22 AM

I generally just keep an ESPN tab up with All D-1 so I can check scores and click into a game for specific details as desired. But, I no longer want to give them clicks. So what do you all use for tracking scores? Something that has the option to dive into box scores/team stats is important. A “gamecast” type feature would be nice too, but that’s just a nice to have.

Good question and thanks for asking it here.  I was doing the same and finding other options less informative and way to navigate.  As usual, the mgo team has the answer.  TheScore it is.

I've been using the CBS Sports app for years and am quite happy with it. It has a link that shows tweets from team sportswriters, which is very helpful on fantasy Sundays when you're trying to find out why your bellcow RB has touched the ball in an hour.

Another vote for the Score app.  Simple interface, one click to pull up all cfb games per day, no annoying ads.  I’ve had very little to do with ESPN for years, driven off by annoying personalities.

(thanks rob f - after 9 years of lurking I wanted to choose a user name that reflected some inane piece of info I learned on mgoblog.  Although tbh I did not check if ‘Justin Feagin’ was taken.)

I use the Yahoo Sports app on my phone mostly.

EDIT: as I scroll up I see a lot of positive reviews for The Score.  I took a cursory look at that a while back and also thought it was a nice app but was stuck in my ways enough to not really use it over Yahoo.

If you're just looking for quick scores and are in a place with crappy/slow reception, plaintextsports is a godsend.

Super quick, the barest of 1990s internet bones, easy to navigate.
