College Football Data for AI agents

College Football Data provides scores, statistics, and recruiting information for college football, giving analysts and fans a structured way to query the sport's history. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
