    Wisconsin @ Alabama and Jim Harbaugh's Michigan @ Utah and Mike Riley's Nebraska @ BYU would be three that would greatly interest me.

    It is on Thursday middle of night Irish time - but id love to see TCU at Minnesota.
    Never saw TCU last season and want to feel the hype.

    Yeah I agree, seen the Baylor game and bowl game last year. High powered team.

    That might be worth having red eyes in work for!

    Are college QB's allowed to wear headsets or is this just an NFL thing?

    I dont think so.

    And in terms of Week 1 games the Ohio State at West Virginia is a bit more interesting now that Joey Bosa is out for it.

    Got told during the week that I've got a ticket (free, but I have to bring a visiting professor with me so it's technically work) for the ND-Texas game. Pretty excited I have to say, although I'm still only barely familiar with the college game at all, and not technically an ND fan (which I didn't mention when they were offering me the ticket, and certainly didn't mention the Buckeyes). There's a huge weight of expectation in the town, which I presume is nothing unusual, but a lot of people are expecting very big things, some production from a long rebuild, but some of these people won't be happy with anything less than a national championship.

    Anyone been to a home game of theirs before have any advice?

    Does the Aviva stadium count as a home game? If so yes, otherwise no.

    From what I can gather from the TV schedules (ESPN unless stated):

    Thursday night/Friday morning:

    11pm South Carolina v North Carolina
    2am Minnesota v TCU

    Friday Night/Saturday morning:

    00:00 SMU v Baylor
    03:15 Boise State v Washington Huskies

    Saturday:

    17:00 Northwestern v Stanford
    20:30 Auburn v Louisville
    20:30 Nebraska v BYU (BT Sport 2)
    00:00 Arizona State v Texas A&M (BT Sport 1)
    01:30 Alabama v Wisconsin

    Time to fire up the DVR.
