A historic 2024 college football season begins on the Emerald Isle with ACC rivals squaring off in the traditional Week 0 action, as defending league champ Florida State takes on challenger Georgia Tech.

Tech returns notable production on the offensive side of the ball, but will be debuting a new defensive alignment after fielding one of the nation's worst overall units a year ago.

Florida State responded to losing much of its starting production from last season by raiding the transfer portal and bringing on high-profile additions like quarterback DJ Uiagalelei, edge rusher Marvin Jones, tailback Roydell Williams, and others.

Here's the latest betting intel for the Week 0 game this Saturday.
