With OSU and Texas playing week 1, I wonder if Clemson LSU will be a 3:30 kickoff.

LSU @ Clemson
Alabama @ FSU
Texas @ Ohio State
GA Tech @ CU
Tenn vs Syracuse

Really the only exciting games Week 1

Texas is playing at Ohio State so that's a Fox game. They put their biggest game in the 11AM slot. There's not many exciting matchups in week 1. LSU at Clemson should be at worst a top 15 game. It'll definitely be the prime time ABC game. Hell it'll probably draw gameday.


Texas-Ohio State is surely the bigger game and gameday does go to games ESPN isn't broadcasting if they're big enough but week 1, I feel like they'll want to promote ESPNs college football is back thing.

Clemson plays a lot of day games. I would not be surprised.

For those planning to attend in person, you better hope for night game. Day games in late August/early September are brutal in Memorial Stadium. I grew up in South Louisiana and understand the heat/humidity you guys will be coming from but something about that stadium gives little airflow during those times of year and it will be brutally hot in day time.

South Carolina heat is different. It’s hard to explain, but Columbia, South Carolina is the hottest place on earth
