BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — The first full week of college football games starts Thursday after an exciting Week 0 in which a top-10 team was stunned to start the season.
The 2024-25 college football season kicked off in Dublin, Ireland, and it was Georgia Tech who struck gold with an upset over No. 10 Florida State, 24-21. The FCS’ Montana State also stunned many when it went into Albuquerque and took down a FBS opponent in the New Mexico Lobos, 35-31.
