Week 1 of college football in 2023 started with a bang on Thursday night. There were lots of games to enjoy over five days. Some games were very one-sided, but others had big teams playing against each other.

One exciting moment was when Minnesota won 13-10 against Nebraska. They were losing 10-3 until they scored their first touchdown with just 2 minutes left. Then, Dragan Kesich kicked a 46-yard field goal right at the end to win. It wasn't a pretty win, but it was dramatic. This was a tough start for Nebraska's new coach, Matt Rhule, in the Big Ten.

In another important game, No. 14 Utah managed to beat Florida 24-11. Even though their star quarterback, Cam Rising, was missing, Utah's strong defense made important plays at the right times.

There was also a game featuring UCF, now in the Big 12. They crushed Kent State 56-6, gaining 723 yards in total, with 389 on the ground. NC State had a closer game, winning 24-14 against UConn. The Huskies took an early lead with 7 points, but they struggled to score more against NC State.
