It's 72 degrees in North Carolina and fall is in the air (apparently not in Texas yet, yikes), and that means college football is BACK this Saturday.
We have one potentially spicy upset early, a fun matchup with a lot of familiar faces, and some Sickos content around them.
12 ET / 11 CT: #10 Florida State vs Georgia Tech (in Dublin, Ireland) - ESPN
Florida State is probably overranked. Georgia Tech is probably underrated. They're playing in Dublin (this made way more sense when Notre Dame consistently played in it) and it's going to get weird.
4 ET / 3 CT: Montana State @ New Mexico - FS1
A really good FCS program against a really bad FBS program. What makes this fun? It's Bronco Mendenhall's head coaching debut at UNM. That dude can coach.
8 ET / 7 CT: SMU @ Nevada - CBS Sports
Like a lot of weird marriages, the Ponies kick off their ACC membership in Reno with a trip to see Jeff Choate's boys. Lots of ex-Texas players and prospects in this one. It's like the ghosts of recruiting threads past:
SMU: Moochie Dixon, David Abiara, Billy Walton, Isaac Pearson, Gabriel Lozano /// Camar Wheaton, Deuce Harmon, LJ Johnson, Jonathan McGill, Ashton Cozart, Derrick McFall, Omari Abor, Savion Byrd, PJ Williams. They also have a Chinese player from Zhangjiagang Ivy Experimental, which must a real powerhouse in the Suzhou high school league.
UNR: Kitan Crawford, Savion Red, Ky Woods, Kris Ross
12 ET / 11 CT: Delaware State @ Hawaii - Team1 App
True Sickos content. I only bring it up because it's already starting off really well:
