Get the calendar of weeks ESPN tracks for a college football season type – each week's number, label, and start / end dates.
Value
A data frame with one row per week:
| col_name | types | description |
| season | integer | Season (4-digit year). |
| season_type | integer | ESPN season type id queried. |
| week | integer | Week number. |
| text | character | Week label (e.g. Week 1, Bowls). |
| start_date | character | Week start timestamp (ISO 8601, UTC). |
| end_date | character | Week end timestamp (ISO 8601, UTC). |
| week_ref | character | $ref URL to the week resource. |
Details
Wraps the ESPN core-v2 endpoint
sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/football/leagues/college-football/seasons/{year}/types/{season_type}/weeks.
The index returns one $ref per week; this wrapper dereferences each and
returns one row per week (~15-16 for a regular season). The week
numbers returned here are the values espn_cfb_week_rankings() accepts.
