5 Must-Watch Games on College Football's Opening Weekend

#3 Oklahoma Sooners vs. #15 Houston Cougars

I know this is probably the first game of the season with the biggest overall playoff significance, and most people would tell you that is exactly why this should be the number one game on your "last" button come Saturday. I hear you. Fortunately, this is the only 12:00 game among these top matchups, so everyone should be tuned in.

It's not like you should be forced to watch this one either way. Oklahoma, at -11.5, comes in with the biggest spread of the five games, but this game does boast the highest over/under of 68 points.

With Heisman hopefuls Greg Ward and Baker Mayfield manning the offensive attacks, expect points in bunches. Last year, the two dual-threat quarterbacks combined for a total of 81 touchdowns while leading their teams to averages of 40.4 and 43.5 points per game a season ago. Thus, fireworks will be seen.

The question is whether either defense can slow down the opposing offense. Both defenses ranked within the top 31 teams in the nation in points against per game in the 2015-16 season, so it wouldn't surprise me if defense is the deciding factor in this one.
