College Football 2015 Week 1: Friday TV/live stream schedule, start times, and more

The long Labor Day weekend kicks off today, and what better way to celebrate than a good slate of games for your Friday? (The celebration began early for Gamecock Nation as USC pulled off a squeaker of an ugly win against the Tar Heels last night.) Today's matchups feature a team playing their first ever game as an FBS program (Charlotte), two of the top five teams in the country (Baylor and Michigan State), and a late one featuring everyone's favorite teal-colored Group of 5 program, Boise State. Also, we get our first look at Syracuse, and try to decide whether or not to put them on upset watch against FCS foe Rhode Island. (Sorry, Orange fans.)

Here's how to watch tonight's games, either on your TV or mobile device. As always, check with your local cable/satellite provider for availability! (Unless you have DirecTV and are looking for the Pac-12 Network, in which case...well...best of luck seeing that battle die anytime soon.) We've also linked the teams to their respective SBN communities (where applicable) so you're free to check out their coverage if you'd like.
