The college football season is in full swing this weekend. Every SEC team will have completed its first game of the 2017 schedule by the end of the day on Monday. Arkansas is already out of the gate, having whooped up on Florida A&M 49-7 on Thursday night.

Here’s a look at one key matchup in every remaining SEC game in Week 1 (all times Eastern):

Missouri State at Missouri

Noon Saturday

Missouri RBs vs. Missouri State defensive front: The only chance former Missouri assistant coach Dave Steckel and his Bears have to compete is if their experienced defensive front really plays well. Slowing down the Tigers run game is still a long shot, but it’s the Bears’ only shot.

South Carolina vs. N.C. State (Charlotte)

3 p.m. Saturday

N.C. State DL vs. South Carolina offensive attack: The Gamecocks have talent and experience along the offensive line, and that should bode well for QB Jake Bentley and a talented receiving corps. But the Wolfpack have perhaps the best defensive line in the country, and that’s where this game will be won or lost.

Florida vs. Michigan (Arlington, Texas)

3:30 p.m. Saturday

Jim McElwain vs. Jim Harbaugh: These two head coaches have played cat and mouse through the entire off season. Neither has given away too much information on his team. (Well, other than McElwain announcing that at least 10 Gators won’t be playing.) Don’t expect the cat and mouse show to come to an end just because the game kicks off.

Kentucky at Southern Miss

4 p.m. Saturday

Kentucky run game vs. Southern Miss defense: The Wildcats were able to run the ball on everyone last season, except for two teams — and Southern Miss was one of them. Alabama was the other. If the Wildcats can move it on the ground, they’ll have a field day in Hattiesburg.

Charleston Southern at Mississippi State

4 p.m. Saturday

Charleston Southern clock management vs. Mississippi State defense: The Buccaneers can move the ball on the ground. The more they do so, the less opportunity for Bulldogs QB Nick Fitzgerald to work his magic. That’s really the only chance the Bucs have to pull the upset.

Appalachian State at Georgia

6:15 p.m. Saturday

Georgia star power backfield vs. App. State defense: Georgia fans will get a good look at the 1-2 punch of RBs Nick Chubb and Sony Michel in what is generally a vanilla offense in these types of games. Quarterback Jacob Eason will be eased into what should be an All-SEC season.

Georgia Southern at Auburn

7:30 p.m. Saturday

Auburn defensive front vs. Georgia Southern triple option: While the Auburn defensive front should be a strength, the triple option is an attack rarely seen anymore, making preparation tough. Historically, Georgia Southern has presented problems for SEC teams, beating Florida in 2013 before close losses to Georgia (overtime 2015) and Ole Miss (10 points 2016).

South Alabama at Ole Miss

7:30 p.m. Saturday

Ole Miss vs. itself: With all that’s happened leading up to the season opener, it’s Ole Miss vs. itself. Will the Rebels be mentally prepared for this game and this season? That’s the biggest obstacle for Ole Miss against an inferior South Alabama team that sprung a 1-point upset in last year’s season opener against Mississippi State.

Alabama vs. Florida State (Atlanta)

8 p.m. Saturday

Alabama ground and pound vs. FSU defense: This game, like most, will be won in the trenches. Bama’s offensive line must pound on the Seminoles and hopefully wear them down in the fourth quarter. That’s signature Alabama football, and there should be no reason for new OC Brian Daboll to waver from it.

Vanderbilt at Middle Tennessee State

8 p.m. Saturday

MTSU passing game vs. Vanderbilt secondary: Vanderbilt will do all it can to run the ball and control the clock, but Blue Raiders QB Brent Stockstill threw for one yard shy of 400 in last year’s meeting. Holding him below that mark will be key in this year’s game.

LSU vs. BYU (New Orleans)

9:30 p.m. Saturday

LSU struggling offensive line vs. BYU defensive front: The Cougars didn’t show much in their season-opening victory last week, but they did show some strength up front on the defensive side. That’s going to be their biggest edge against an LSU offensive line that lost five players since this spring, including its starting guard.

Texas A&M at UCLA

7:30 p.m. Sunday

UCLA vaunted passing game vs. Texas A&M solid secondary: It’s strength vs. strength when the Bruins go to the air against a veteran group of Aggies DBs. If veteran safeties Armani Watts and Donovan Wilson can neutralize UCLA QB Josh Rosen’s downfield passing attack, the Aggies have a great chance of winning out west.

Tennessee vs. Georgia Tech (Atlanta)

8 p.m. Monday

Vols front seven vs. Jackets triple option: This is an area in which the Vols must take full advantage. The vast majority of Tennessee’s top tacklers return, and that experience will be put to the test as the Jackets break in a new QB to run the option offense.
