There are 16 FBS games this Thursday. I don’t remember there being that many before on a Thursday. Add in FCS and it goes up to 32. Most are not interesting but Penn St - Purdue and West VA - Pitt should be interesting.

Tough competition going against the NFL-TNF. If those are the two best games you found, I’ll probably watch the NFL.
edit: misread that, thought you meant for the season…….nvm, I’m going back to bed.

Conference games in week 1 are a dumb gimmick and another reason the B1G will never touch the SEC.
Also, this Thursday Mizzou will take down the Bulldogs of LA Tech in dominating fashion, in front of a national audience (ESPNU). 10s of thousands of viewers will watch in awe as a revamped Tigers team reveals its first glimpses of greatness on their way back to their rightful spot in the SEC Championship game. Set your DVRs fellas

College Football on Thursday night used to be awesome. There was ONE GAME on and the whole nation was focused on it. It was an event.
Then more college teams started playing on Thursday’s and then the GREEDY NFL MUSCLED THEIR WAY IN.
Now there are games everyday of the week and yawn. It has completely lost its luster.
Obviously this Thursday is cool because there are no NFL games and the season is starting.
I hate that the Egg Bowl is on Thanksgiving night. Why, because now the NFL has the Saints - Falcons on and there are other college games on as well. Ugggghhhh.
Years back it was the only game on and again it was an event.

Backyard Brawl, huge & bitter rivalry. I remember watching one of their games at a Jocks & Jills several years back. I was surprised at how many fans of both teams were there ... and they sure didn't disappoint. Security had to intervene twice, finally tossed several people

As a Nits fan I am thinking this is not a good night to watch a game...lol. The offensive line is still bad, it was bad last year and there has been no improvement. Clifford isn't a great passer but he is tough, evidenced by the fact that he is still walking upright after playing behind 3 years of BAD offensive lines.
I still stand by my 6-6 regular season with a bowl loss to a MAC team prediction...6-7 with 9 more years of James Franklin.
