College football Week 1 scores, games, updates: Georgia vs. Clemson, Notre Dame vs. Texas A&M and more

It’s the Saturday of Labor Day weekend, which means the full chaos of college football has truly arrived.

West Virginia should be a good first test. The Mountaineers were 9-4 a season ago and bring back the majority of an offense that scored over 31 points per game last season.

Time: 3:30 p.m. | TV: ABC | Line: Miami -2.5 | Total: 54.5

The first game of the season doesn’t make or break a team’s season. But boy, does it feel like there’s a lot at stake in this in-state rivalry game. Miami enters the season with high…
