After 10 FBS games (plus Howard-Alabama State in the MEAC/SWAC Challenge) kick things off in Week 0, everyone will start getting in on the action when Week 1 kicks off exactly 100 days from now, on Sept. 1.
The arrival of the 100-day mark to the beginning of the college football season carries with it both excitement and panic.
On the one hand, the clock is ticking down for the return of the greatest sport on the planet, along with the bands, mascots and fans that make it so. On the other hand, this means we have to get everything else done now. Yard work? Home-improvement projects? Vacations? Weddings? You’ve got just 14 Saturdays left until we’re locked in.
It’s been quite an offseason. A new rivalry has dawned between Southern California and Oklahoma — at least among their fans on Twitter — after the defection of Lincoln Riley (and Caleb Williams) to the West Coast. The Trojans added a few haters to the bandwagon recently with the addition of Pitt star Jordan Addison.
Texas A&M and Alabama have thrown a whole bunch of kerosene on the already combustible SEC West. Speaking of, Bryan Harsin is still at Auburn after a soap opera enveloped his spring vacation. He is probably ready to get back to some football too.
And what better way to kick off Week 1 than with a good ol’ Thursday night Backyard Brawl, with West Virginia traveling to Pitt for their 105th meeting.
But before we get started, this has been an offseason of change, on and off the field. And you’ll be forgiven if you can’t quite remember all that’s happened. So here’s a rundown of the key coaches in new places, elite transfers on new teams, position battles still to be determined and a whole lot more.
