The first game of the college football season will kickoff in Montgomery, Alabama and features a match-up between Division I FCS foes Central Arkansas and Austin Peay.

Further, this game ought to offer a preview of how teams will handle player health and safety during this pandemic. I imagine conferences like the Big 12 will be watching closely as the start of their seasons looms closer...
