2024 College Football Season

Here's my visual recap of the 2024 College Football season: from week one all the way thru Bowl Season. I continued my partnership with Imagn Images (formerly USA TODAY Sports Images) and added a new contract with ESPN Images which allowed me to have access to cover some of the most exciting games of the year. I was also fortunate to cover some amazing college athletes who will most likely be taken in the first round of the NFL Draft.
