The goal of cfbcolors is to easily generate NCAA football team color palettes.

Installation

You can install the released version of cfbcolors from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("corysauve/cfbcolors")

Basic Usage

cfbcolors has palettes for … teams in NCAA college football. Colors are sourced from primary uniforms and logos. Note that if white is not one of the two primary colors, it is omitted in the palette. All teams are accessed via their school name.
