College football truly kicked off last night (I believe Week 0 earned its name because it’s worthless) with the first high-profile (Utah-Florida) matchup of a fascinating season, with too many storylines to fit in one newsletter:

The Pac-12’s last dance. The final four-team playoff. Is Texas back (and will Arch Manning play)? Is Florida State? Is Penn State finally ready to wrestle back control of the Big Ten after years in Michigan’s and Ohio State’s shadow? Deion Sanders’ debut season at Colorado. Jimbo Fisher teaming with Bobby Petrino. Nick Saban receiving a standing eight count.

The two biggest storylines, however, should remain relevant all season — and potentially be remembered for decades.

Georgia is attempting to become the first team in the wire service era (since 1936) to win three straight national titles, while USC’s Caleb Williams hopes to become the second player in history to win multiple Heisman Trophy awards.
