College football programs had fun with the total solar eclipse
College football coaches around the country have taken all sorts of different approaches to Monday’s total solar eclipse.
Alabama’s Nick Saban didn’t seem too interested when asked about it over the weekend.

Neither did South Carolina’s Will Muschamp, it seemed, though he was a bit more light-hearted about the whole thing. He just didn’t know much about it.

If he didn’t know much about it on Sunday, Muschamp let his players get a pretty good view from the top of Williams-Brice Stadium on Monday afternoon.
THAT. WAS. AWESOME. #SolarEclipse pic.twitter.com/1Roku0RTYA

Oh, and Boston College’s Steve Addazio is taking an entirely different approach.
Steve Addazio isn't here for your #SolarEclipse2017 science. "I'm gonna look at it and I'm not wearing glasses. See if I'm blind tomorrow."

Just a guy being a dude, right?
But compared to Saban, Muschamp and Addazio, Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh, Texas A&M’s Kevin Sumlin and Clemson’s Dabo Swinney were much more enthusiastic about the eclipse.

And Mike Leach undoubtedly is the most knowledgeable.
