Publish date:

Saturday marks the first day of October, and the first massive game with reverberations that will be felt all the way through January, a clash of titans yet to face the sting of defeat this season, a game that will almost certainly determine who stands holding a trophy in their hands come December.

I'm talking, of course, of Navy at Air Force.

And also Louisville at Clemson. That one's big, too.

Here's how we see Week 5 shaking out.
