What games this weekend are your watching? Me, curious to see the SEC teams, even though the Gators play the only one that may tell us something.
My bad, apparently Thursday counts as week 1. Got a little ahead of myself, just excited to see games.

I will be watching any and all games I can. I’m so starved for football I watched replays of 2 iron bowls yesterday!

Vandy is only sec squad playing week 0. Week 0 is 7 total games and they’re all terrible.

I’ll be watching every second.

I'm going to use this Saturday as my preseason. Wake up early, have a nice breakfast, and pretend that it's 75-80 degrees outside. I'll throw GameDay on in the background, casually watching. Around 10-11 I'll crack open the first beverage of the day and prepare to sit and watch football.

I figure if I get the wives bitching out the way about me not doing anything, and that I'm drinking before noon, during this meaningless week 0, then next weekend she'll be in the routine and just ignore what's inevitably going to happen every Saturday until December.

If I’m not working Saturday this will probably be my exact schedule. Might make a Bloody Mary as well.

It is 7 college football games. 2 games with a ranked team playing. Maybe an early upset? There is an SEC team playing. A Louisiana team playing. And best of all, it is happening THIS SATURDAY.

This week is going to be so long.

Fun thing about week zero is i’m genuinely excited about schools I otherwise wouldn’t care about, nor would care about when other real schools are playing.

But Ohio university vs San Diego St on a Saturday night in august? Hell yea sign me up

Week 0 is hardly ever good. My concern is week 1 usually has a fair few marquee games but this year seems to be weaker than most years as far as actual week 1 games go. The best game of the week is on Sunday and other than that there are no ranked vs ranked teams the rest of the week.

UNC vs South Carolina is the 2nd best game of the week, gotta imagine South Carolina is just outside the top 25. But that's your Saturday headliner.
