The first full Saturday of college football has finally arrived. Week 1 hits its peak with a packed schedule of games spanning from noon ET until Hawaii’s 11:59 pm kickoff against Western Kentucky. Twenty teams ranked in the AP Top 25 will be in action with big-time matchups sprinkled throughout the slate, so it figures to be a day packed with drama and storylines as the narrative of the 2022 season begins to take shape.
no. 6 Texas A&M, No. 8 Michigan and No. 13 NC State will help get the action started in the day’s early window. The Aggies and Wolverines are heavy favorites against Sam Houston and Colorado State, respectively, while the Wolfpack could be in for a test as they travel to face an East Carolina team returning numerous key players from a 7-5 team. The afternoon wave of games brings even better goodies, including a showdown between defending national champion No. 3 Georgia and No. 11 Oregon, as well as No. 19 Arkansas battling No. 23 Cincinnati.
The evening schedule pits No. 7 Utah against Florida and No. 2 Ohio State against No 5 Notre Dame in marquee matchups with national implications. CBS Sports will be here every step of the way to update you with the latest scores, highlights and storylines throughout the evening. All Times Eastern
