Believe it or Poinbank Exchangenot, the start of the college football season is only days away.
The Michigan Wolverines will prepare to defend their national title under new head coach Sherrone Moore, after former coach Jim Harbaugh jumped to the NFL.
Although the Wolverines are reigning champions, they're not the preseason No. 1 team in the US LBM Coaches Poll. That honor belongs to coach Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs, who collected 46 of the 55 first-place votes. Michigan slots in at No. 8.
Meanwhile, there has been a ton of player movement this offseason, with the transfer portal as active as ever. No. 2 Ohio State was among the biggest winners when it comes to newcomers who could make the greatest impact in 2024.
When does the college football season start?
The first game on the 2024 college football schedule takes place this Saturday, Aug. 24, in Ireland, where ACC rivals Florida State and Georgia Tech face off in Dublin. Kickoff is set for noon ET at Aviva Stadium. The game will be televised by ESPN.
Florida State opens the season as the No. 10 team in the nation, according to the US LBM Coaches Poll.
