The 2024 college football season is finally here.
After a long offseason, sports return in all their glory on Saturday as the aptly named Week Zero kicks off the season with four games featuring FBS opponents. Headlining the season’s opening weekend is the No. 10 Florida State Seminoles’ clash with the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in the Aer Lingus College Football Classic in Dublin, Ireland, at 12:00 p.m. ET.
While Week Zero certainly gives college football fans a taste of what’s to come, the rest of the sport doesn’t resume until Labor Day weekend.
After eight long months of off-the-field drama, legal disputes over team reshuffles and more, the stage is set for the most memorable college football season yet.
In this sense here Sports illustrated‘s preseason college football All-American list.
