Oh, man, I have been enjoying the offseason, but now it’s time to get back to work.  The memories of last season will last a lifetime for me, but now it’s time to start a new season.  In fact, the season kicks off today in (wait, is this right) Dublin.  Let’s have fun here, everybody. Here’s the Opening Day schedule.

Florida State Seminoles at Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets today at 12 p.m.
Montana State Bobcats at New Mexico Lobos today at 4 p.m.
SMU Mustangs at Nevada Wolf Pack tonight at 8 p.m.
Delaware State Hornets at Hawaii Rainbow Warriors tonight at 11:59 p.m.

[InThe313]

What a thriller today in Dublin!  Georgia Tech Aidan Birr drilled the game-winning field goal to upset No. 10 Florida State, 24-21.

[InThe313]

Go take a shower!  SMU’s Brandon Crossley was ejected after receiving an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for spitting on an opposing player.  Updates to come.

SMU beat Nevada, 29-24

[InThe313]

It’s Prime Time again!  Head coach Deion Sanders’ second season in Boulder, Colo., is kicking off as Colorado takes on nine-time FCS champion North Dakota State.  Updates to come.

UPDATE:  This getting fun!  Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders’ third touchdown pass has the Buffaloes up, 24-21, in North Dakota State entering the fourth quarter.

Colorado beat North Dakota State, 31-25.

The first full Saturday is here!  No. 14 Clemson is playing No. 1 Georgia now.  No. 19 Miami (Fla.) will play Florida at 3:30 p.m.  No. 7 Notre Dame will play No. 20 Texas A&M at 7:30 p.m.  Updates to come.

UPDATE:  I hope this tradition never goes away.  Lee Corso and Pat McAfee put on a show in College Station, Texas, as they made their picks for Notre Dame vs. Texas A&M.  McAfee went with the Aggies while Corso chose the Fighting Irish.

Georgia beat Clemson, 34-3.
Miami (Fla.) beat Florida, 41-17.

UPDATE 2:  This will be an exciting finish in the Brazos.  Notre Dame and Texas A&M are tied, 6-6, in the third quarter.

Notre Dame beat Texas A&M, 23-13.

It is Week 1 and we are already putting together the season highlight reel.  A Robert Morris defender made a jaw-dropping, one-handed, spinning 360 interception that left the crowd in awe in a 36-14 loss to Utah State.

[InThe313]

The man’s temper is legendary.  Head coach Brian Kelly’s frustration boiled over in a viral rant as he slammed a table after LSU lost another season opener.

[Cadeauxxx]

Brian Kelly can't do halftime adjustments for anything and LSU are idiots for paying him $100 million dollars. I'm so glad I didn't watch that game.

Texas overrated as usual lol.

The defending champs should have their way with them.

[InThe313]

This makes me feel good.  Northern Illinois’ Kanin Woodill kicked a go-ahead 35-yard field goal left to upset No. 5 Notre Dame, 16-14.  The Huskies were 0-14 against Top 10 opponents.

Texas overrated as usual lol.

The defending champs should have their way with them.

So much for that lol.
