The anticipation for college football is palpable, with Week Zero officially kicking off this weekend. Manning is widely viewed as a generational talent, but he’ll still need to prove it in Week 1 when Texas heads to Columbus for a top-five showdown against the defending national champion Ohio State Buckeyes.

Top-ranked Texas is the consensus favorite to win it all, though it’s a crowded field. The Longhorns are +450 favorites at BetMGM Sportsbook, followed by third-ranked and defending champion Ohio State (+525). Four other teams — No. 2 Penn State, No. 4 Clemson, No. 5 Georgia and No. 7 Oregon — are between 7-1 and 9-1.
