The official Week 1 College Football kick off is this Saturday, the 30th.
For a noon kickoff in Columbus, (#1) Texas takes on (#3) Ohio State as slight favorites, making it a rematch of last year’s All State Cotton Bowl, the National Championship semi-finals. The Arch Manning era has begun for Texas as both teams enter the season with championship aspirations. Later that night the fourth ranked Clemson Tigers match up against the ninth ranked LSU Tigers, where two premiere Heisman candidates, Cade Klubnik (Clemson) and Garrett Nussmeier (LSU), are set to battle.
In the final heavyweight matchup of the weekend, Notre Dame (#6) versus Miami (#10) in the home of the Hurricanes, Hard Rock Stadium. Carson Beck looks to prove his worth as a veteran transfer from Georgia, and Jeremiah Love looks to dominate as one of the best running backs in the league.
