Well, SEC fans, we’ve finally made it!

The Southeastern Conference officially kicks off the season Thursday night with Bowling Green’s trip to Tennessee. The Volunteers are looking for a big debut under new head coach Josh Heupel and first-year starting quarterback Joe Milton. After a tumultuous last few years, Vols fans are looking for a fresh start under Heupel and company. Bowling Green and Tennessee kick off at 8:00 p.m. ET on the SEC Network. You can bet on the game here.

Another game SEC fans will care about is Ohio State’s trip to Minnesota. Yes, the Buckeyes are a big favorite; however, kicking off the season against a conference opponent is never as easy as it sounds. The Buckeyes are about a two-touchdown favorite, but could this one be closer than the experts predict?
