How often do Conferences have teams which open the season against each other? I see that Louisville and Georgia Tech are playing each other in game 1.
Isn't that unusual?
Right. It's not like it never happens. So I see now that the B1G does it, ACC does (both 1-2 games per year, perhaps).Good question, I'd have to defer to someone with more expertise regarding commonality over a long-term basis.
Random check from 2022:
ACC: Louisville-Syracuse and Clemson-Georgia Tech (both week 1)
Big Ten: Nebraska-Northwestern in week 0; Illinois-Indiana and Penn State-Purdue in week 1.
The big 12 will be rooting for cougars that day.Rumors of UT at Houston. YES

Has the Big 12 ever done it, I wonder?
No Tech, no WVU, no UCF
