Most way too early preseason polls put us at #1, some seem to put FSU at #2. I could see them being put there just for the hype of it. Have the #1 and #2 preseason teams ever met in the opener? I can't remember it happening.

I think this is guaranteed to be the highest both teams are ranked in an opener in college football history. I think as long as Florida State is in the top 3-4 and Bama is 1, then it'll be the biggest opener ever from what I've read.

It's never happened before. Which is why I think you're going to see the voters do it. They want to hype this thing up for the ratings.
