There's much to discuss leading into Week 4 of the college football season.
First and foremost is the start of the Southeastern Conference schedule that sees all 14 teams begin their long-awaited return to action. There's not a monumental showdown on the slate, but there's enough competitive games that will provide a look at where things stand among the contenders and the rest of the field.
The Big 12 also gets its conference play started along with the continuation of the ACC campaign. And there's some significant meetings in the Group of Five as those schools position themselves for a potential New Year's Six bowl game.
