College football’s 2018 campaign kicked off with bangs all over the country. Auburn and Washington laid waste to Atlanta, with strong assists from DragonCon and the Shutdown Fullcast’s live taping being hosted in the same city. Stanford, LSU, Virginia Tech, West Virginia, and Notre Dame all handled their Week 1 business in professional fashion, and now this or that program jets off to play this or that large- or small-scale side in Week 2.
No. 1 Alabama is playing Arkansas State in Tuscaloosa, for instance, which may be a little interesting for about 20 minutes. Outside of that hot action in west-central Alabama, there are a host of match-ups in Week 2 that will certainly resonate out for weeks across this college football season.
