The game is potentially going to be a No. 1 vs No. 2 matchup to open the season, so there really are few other choices for GameDay in Week 1. How could you pass up on a game like that to open the season?

The game takes place Saturday, September 2 from the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
