The college football season begins in earnest with Week 1 of competition throughout the weekend. Since the NFL schedule doesn't start until next week, there are college football games every day from Thursday to Monday to begin this season.
After a loaded evening slate of games on Thursday, there are six more games on Friday ahead of a full day of college football action on Saturday. Closing out Friday's group of games is a matchup between 2022 national championship runners-up TCU and ACC newcomers Stanford.
The Horned Frogs- Cardinal clash is the fourth such matchup between the two teams, all of which have happened since 2007. TCU has won all three previous matchups, the most recent of which was a 39-37 win in the Alamo Bowl in 2017.
Here's everything to know about the TCU vs. Stanford college football game on Friday night:
Adam Burke writes: "A clean slate is probably better with a new DC, so maybe it isn’t a bad thing that the Horned Frogs only had a handful of defensive starters back, but I don’t see enough efficiency on both sides of the ball for TCU to win by double digits here."

JD Yonke writes: "The Cardinal will be more competitive, but that doesn't mean they're ready to upset a vastly more talented team that is also well-coached on both sides of the ball."
Mark Ruelle writes: "TCU beefed up its defensive line and that should also help them to force Stanford into being one-dimensional and throw the all early and often. Stanford finished 0-7 at home last year in Taylor's first season and they will remain winless at home in his tenure after Friday night."
