Sean Lowe will is getting a second chance at finding love on TV when a new season of "The Bachelor" debuts Monday night on ABC.

The 28 -year-old Texan  and  former Kansas State linebacker won some fans' hearts when he was second runner-up during single mom Emily Maynard's season of "The Bachelorette" in 2012. Now, they get to cheer him on as he hunts for love among a bevy of eligible women.

"My feelings for Emily were very real, and they were very authentic and genuine," Lowe previously told reporters. But now, he's looking forward to a whole new adventure, tweeting details about the premiere on his Twitter account.

"It's almost here! And despite what you see in the first 10 minutes of tomorrow night's episode, I do eventually wear a shirt," he tweeted Saturday night.

Today , he added, "I'm looking forward to everyone's tweets tonight! I promise you'll love tonight's episode!"

"The Bachelor" host Chris Harrison told TV Guide that Lowe, who makes custom furniture,  is far from plain vanilla. "People will be surprised by his personality and charisma, and he's also got an edge to him. He's not afraid of confrontation or saying the wrong thing," Harrison said.

The bachelor was trending on twitter all last night, but I don't think that Sean would have liked a lot of what was being said. I was never a huge fan of Sean because he seems really shallow and boring. I was talking to a coworker at DISH who was saying that Sean doesn't matter too much because it is all about the girls, and I agree. I missed the show last night because I was watching The Biggest Loser, but I was able to catch up with a recording that my DISH Hopper made with PrimeTime Anytime. I love how it records everything during primetime on the four major networks while I watch whatever I want. I am glad that I caught it because that wedding dress entrance was really something!
