Some interesting games this weekend.
It’s “Rivalry Week”.
Rivalry week so all of these games can go either way
UT v aTm is intriguing.
I hate both.
This is like the Wicked Witch of the West meets Skeletor.
Ordinarily, I like to see both lose.
That said, I’d love to see UT derail aTm’s top three ranking.
Problem with that is A&M won’t drop out of the CFP with that loss… I’d rather see UT completely removed from the rankings with their 4th loss along with a Bama and Ole Miss loss.
This is the best week of college football, by far, every year.
It goes waaaayyyy beyond “some interesting games”…
Traditionally… this is the week Dreams are Realized, and Hopes are Shatterred…
I want to see…
Houston > Baylor
Auburn > Alabama
Michigan > Ohio State
Tennessee > Vanderbilt
Ga Tech > Georgia
Miss State > Ole Miss
UW > Oregon
WVU > TT
South Carolina > Clemson
BYU > UCF
…just to name a few…
7 of the 10 are “Rivalry Games. The other 3 are Big12 Games, not “rivalry” games, per se. The only “Rivalry” games, in the Big12, that come to mind right now, to me, are…
BYU vs Utah
Kansas vs K-State
Iowa State vs K-State
I wish they both could lose.
That being said, I think A&M wins handily
Not so fun fact: UT and A&M’s fight songs are literally about each other
Yeah. Didn’t mention this one, because I’d like to see them BOTH lose, as well…
Plus I’d rather see UT lose. Always.
Good news, it’s UW playing Oregon, not WSU, so better chance, especially since they’re playing in Seattle.
I stand corrected.
Wazzu is playing Oregon STATE in a battle of P4 left outs.
UW is playing Oregon.
Pulling for both teams from the state of Washington…
Another intriguing G6 matchup this weekend could be Central Michigan v. Toledo.
A CMU victory would put the in the MAC title game.
That would be remarkable, given that CMU has a brand new rookie head coach, went 4-8 last season (2-6 in conference), was not considered a pre-season MAC favorite, and got KILLED in early games against Michigan and Pitt.
FIRE UP CHIPS!!!
Is this the “junior high version” of Michigan vs Ohio State?
LOL!
Yeah, something like that.
The MAC is like the B1G JV!
Also of interest is the first round of the I-FCS playoffs.
Lamar is playing Abilene Christian.
GO CARDS!!!
