Saturday Open Thread: College Football, Sort Of

All right, so, what should be the first Saturday of college football season is instead a shell of its normal self. Gone are the marquee matchups; in fact, there’s nothing involving a Power 5 team this weekend.

In their place, three FBS-on-FBS matchups, which after South Alabama-Southern Miss on Thursday are three of the first four such games of the season. There are also three FBS-on-FCS matchups, one of which is being televised on ESPN. Yep, they needed content.

Anyway, here’s your schedule for the day:

Eastern Kentucky at Marshall (12:00 PM, ESPN)

What the hell, this game is on ESPN.
