It was a wild first week in College Football. The SEC had its share of ups and downs.
Alabama looked as legit as ever after a 52-6 rout of USC. LSU is a far cry from the preseason expectations of a potential College Football Playoff team. And Nick Chubb is still freakishly good.
But don’t take our word from it. Here are 25 tweets that sum up what happened in the SEC during the first Saturday of the 2016 season.
South Alabama upset Mississippi State 21-20

After being the most hyped team of the offseason, LSU lost an ugly game
Leonard Fournette finished the first half with more tackles than touchdown runs.

I think the field at LSU/Wisconsin needs more flags
