SEC Week 1 College Football Schedule, Preview, Picks & Odds: Prove-It Time for the Conference

Auburn has to go to Baylor on Friday night. That's dangerous. Alabama has to go to Florida State, LSU has to travel to Clemson. South Carolina (vs Virginia Tech) and Tennessee (vs Syracuse) will be in front of friendly crowds when they each play in Atlanta, but they have tough matchups against the ACC.

And then there's Texas going to Ohio State, which doesn't just mean more, it might mean everything.
