Week one of the college football season begins on Thursday and will end on Monday night. Week zero saw all the underdogs cover with a few of those teams in action this week. The big game is number 1 Georgia taking on number 16 Clemson in Atlanta. The Bulldogs are led by a dominant offensive line and a returning cast with Carson Beck at QB. The Tigers have a chance to win the ACC after Florida States loss last week and are led by quarterback Cade Klubnik.

There are plenty of other games on tap this week including Colorado taking on North Dakota State. Miami will travel to the swamp against the Florida Gators. USC and LSU will both see new quarterbacks under center this season and neither can afford to lose the season opener. The Seminoles look to avenge their loss to Georgia Tech last week as they play host to Boston College.
