After eight long months of waiting, college football is finally back! And not only is it back, but it's absolutely loaded with great games on the opening weekend of the 2014 season. While MSU fans obviously will be watching/attending the Mississippi State vs. Southern Miss game on Saturday, there are plenty of other great contests to check out on TV at home or at your tailgate starting tonight and running all the way through Monday. Get that information below, and make it a great opening weekend!
