It's not often fans get to watch a NCAA Football game the first Saturday of the season with potential BCS title game implications. This is the case with tonight's (Saturday, August 31) game between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Clemson Tigers. Georgia comes into the game ranked 5th in the nation, while Clemson is ranked 8th. The two teams have a long history and college football fans may not see two teams face one another the entire 2013 season with so much offensive firepower. What do the odds makers say? Where can you get the online live stream of week one's top game? Keep reading for a preview, prediction, and where you can watch.

The Bulldogs fell just short of a national championship game appearance last year. Georgia ended last season with 12 wins as the third ranked team in the nation after losing a nail biter to Alabama in the SEC title game. Georgia's offense sees their offensive line from last season returning along with standout rushers Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall. As good as there offense is expected to be, there are big concerns with their defense that lost seven players on the defensive side of the ball to the NFL draft. This could pose a big problem, especially when going up against the Tigers' high-powered offense.

Clemson is led on offense by quarterback Tajh Boyd. The ACC player of the year in 2012 is a dual threat running and throwing the ball. Boyd had a record setting season last year by throwing for 3,896 yards and 36 touchdowns. Boyd is also the Tigers top returning rusher from last season's team. The Bulldogs' defense will have their hands full trying to contain Boyd.

According to Sporting News' Linemakers, a number of betters in Las Vegas have the Bulldogs as a two-point favorite. However, this game could go either way. I predict the Bulldogs pull this game out. They have a chip on their shoulder following last season's heartbreaking loss to Alabama.

The game will be aired on TV nationally on ABC. Fans can also watch online via live stream on WATCHESPN.
