What makes a good opening weekend in college football?

Today on Out of the Blue, the boys cover a brief history of college football season-opening weekends and whether a not an early challenge is good for the Michigan Wolverines . Per usual, in the height of so many new shows debuting, the guys mix in pop culture ties and explain how a good season opener can set the stage for an entire season much like a great pilot episode.
