The college football season doesn't start until late August, but fans do get one semblance of football in the months leading up to it thanks to the spring games.

Although it's a glorified practice and not every team in the country holds one these days, it allows fans to see that new blue-chip recruit whom their team went all in on throughout this past year. In this modern day of college football, it also gives fans a look at the top transfer that their program brought in.

For a conference like the SEC, which saw six of its 16 programs get a new head coach, it is also the fans' first introduction to the program's new leader. Despite just about every program in the country holding a spring game, they aren't all on the same day.
