Summary

The Cover 3 crew previews the Week 1 schedule with the games to watch. First, the impact of Nebraska’s loss to Northwestern in Ireland has brought a lot of pressure on Scott Frost, but is the discussion of a coaching change premature? Plus, expectations for Auburn and its offense with TJ Finley now named the starting quarterback. Then it’s on to the draft of Week 1 matchups, where each host is tasked with picking exactly one game for Thursday night, Friday night and one game for each Saturday window (early, midday, primetime). With games taken off the board once they were selected, the result is a good look at the best action of Week 1 plus some off-the-radar options to keep your eye on.
