Seventh Day Adventure

It's a big weekend in the ACC, including Miami travelling to Louisville and Georgia Tech against perennial AAC contender Central Florida.

The headline game in the first full-ish week of the college football season sees Trevor Lawrence, the likely first overall draft pick in 2021, lead Clemson into battle against Wake Forest.

The 130 teams in the FBS have played 884 games. The 885th game will be the first loss for the Tigers, whether LSU or Clemson comes out on top. Ian Boyd breaks down which team has the edge.

The top bowl games this time around include top draft prospect Justin Herbert leading Oregon against Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl.

The second week of Bowl Season features a baker's dozen matchups -- most notably the playoff semifinals on Saturday when Oklahoma faces LSU in the Peach Bowl and Clemson battles Chase Young and Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl.

Big matchups in the first week of bowl games include SMU vs. Florida Atlantic, Louisiana Tech vs. Miami, BYU vs. Hawai'i on Christmas Eve, and Boise State vs. Washington.

With Clemson, LSU, and Ohio State all but assured of berths in the playoff, the question is whether Baylor, Georgia, Oklahoma, or Tyler Huntley and the Utah Utes will be able to join them.

It's Rivalry Week! That means Michigan vs. Ohio State in The Game, Alabama vs. Auburn in The Iron Bowl, Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma State in Bedlam, and Brock Purdy and Iowa State vs. Kansas State in Farmageddon.

All eyes turn to Baylor, where Denzel Mims and the Bears host the Texas Longhorns with a chance to clinch a berth in the Big 12 title game. Elsewhere, Ohio State looks to stay undefeated against Penn State, Georgia hosts Texas A&M, and the TCU Horned Frogs head to Norman to play the Oklahoma Sooners.

Big 12 title contenders clash on Saturday when CeeDee Lamb and Oklahoma take on undefeated Baylor. Other high-profile schools in critical contests this weekend include Georgia, Minnesota, and Notre Dame.
