Former Auburn football star receiver and the highest overall pick for Auburn football in the 2021 NFL Draft (Round 3, pick #91) Anthony Schwartz watched some damn good Week One college football on Thursday night.

Schwartz caught the Group of Five showdown between two teams that have been linked to the Big 12 in recent months, UCF and Boise State.

The game was an instant classic in every way, with the Knights finding themselves down 21-0 to the Broncos in the first quarter before engineering one of the most memorable comebacks in recent years for a primetime opening game kickoff.
