No. 12 Illinois, Michigan State, Kansas and Army are also all in action with home games.
Here are the best games on Friday night. (Scroll for live updates.)
Auburn (-2.5) at Baylor, 8 p.m. ET Friday (Fox): Baylor is one of the favorites to get to the Big 12 title game and yet is a home underdog to start the season against what could be a bottom-half SEC team. Auburn is a boom-or-bust team in 2025. The Tigers could go 9-3 or 3-9 and neither outcome would be all that surprising.
Georgia Tech (-4.5) at Colorado, 8 p.m. ET Friday (ESPN): The Yellow Jackets played in seven one-possession games a year ago and were 4-3 in those contests. Colorado named Liberty transfer Kaidon Salter as the team’s starting QB this week ahead of five-star freshman JuJu Lewis.
