If you think it’s already been a September to remember for college football, just wait until 2017 gets here.
Similar to this season, there will be several high-profile out-of-conference and neutral-site games for the SEC. In Week 1 alone, we’ll get Alabama-Florida State in Atlanta, Florida-Michigan in Arlington and LSU-BYU in Houston.

A couple of highly-anticipated rematches are on the slate for Week 2. TCU will visit Arkansas looking for revenge following this past Saturday’s double-overtime loss. Auburn will travel to Clemson for the back end of that home-and-home, although it’ll be an easier assignment with no more Deshaun Watson.
As for Week 3, Ole Miss will fly all the way across the country to take on Cal. While we won’t get to see Chad Kelly do battle with Davis Webb at quarterback, these two offenses know how to score a lot of points.
Be sure to watch the video above for the three games in particular that I can’t wait to see next September.
