College Football Opening Weekend

[Crimson's Ghost]

Which 5 games are you looking forward to most this weekend?  College football really stepped up their game this year for an opening weekend with tons of great matchups.

Penn State vs. Kent State (huge PSU fan, can't wait to see how new offense looks under Moorhead)
Georgia vs. North Carolina (two very talented teams should be a good game, Kirby Smart head coaching debut)
USC vs. Alabama (Lane Kiffin goes against his old program as the Alabama OC, both teams have tons of NFL talent, Alabama national champs last year)
Clemson vs. Auburn (Clemson has the best QB in all of college football and Clemson is the favorite to win it all this year, must replace a bunch of guys on the defensive side of the football)
Ole Miss vs. Florida State (huge test for Jimbo's team very early should be a very good game, tons of talent in this game.
Notre Dame vs. Texas and Oklahoma vs. Houston also both will be very interesting football games. I'm just glad that college football is back, the best time of the year!!

Oklahoma at Houston has my attention for sure.  I think that could be a great game. After beating FSU in the Peach Bowl last year, it shows they can hang with the big boys.

I think everyone will have their eyes on the 6 games you just mentioned along with the local games.  Here are some under the radar games for week 1:

Thursday

Oregon State @ Minnesota: A team in Minnesota that is a sleeper pick to win the B1G West faces a team that most experts have in the basement of the PAC12. All the pressure is on Minnesota on this one at home. 

South Carolina @ Vanderbilt: SEC Conference game on the first night of college football. 

Friday:

Army @ Temple: You never know what you are going to get out of the service academies from year to year. Army looks to close the gap on Navy. Temple looks to build off of the best year in probably their program's history.

Saturday:

Georgia Tech @ Boston College: Once again, conference game in the opening week. 

Rutgers @ Washington:  Basically the same script as the Minnesota vs Oregon State game. Washington is getting a lot of love out west. Last year Rutgers almost upset (kinda) Washington State to open the season, losing 39-36.

Notre Dame-Texas, wow what a game. Probably one of the best of the season in week one.

Kizer for Notre Dame is unbelievable, I can't believe Kelly had him in a competition with Zaire, he's head and shoulders better.

I like the true freshman for Texas, he had some really good throws. I wonder if this is a fluke, or is Texas "back"?
