College Football – Week 10 – Great Weekend!

November 6, 2008

I am very excited about the match-ups this weekend in college football. There are a lot of big games including two on Thursday which is a first for the season. I put the Texas game in there only because I am excited to see how they bounce back after last weeks loss to Tech. Plus, Robert Griffin is no push over at Quarterback of the Baylor Bears. I believe the Alabama game is going to be a good one since its in LSU and I don’t think Alabama comes out of that one in one piece. They might be able to inch out a win possibly, but I don’t think they will have all their starters once the game is over. Its going to be a rough game that I am excited to be able to see. I have missed a lot of key games this season, but I am very excited about this weekend and I think you should be too.

College Football – Week 8 – Games to watch

October 17, 2008

Thursday, October 16th

6:30PM Central on ESPN [HD]
Florida State at North Carolina State (W) Florida State

Look for Florida State to come out with a stronger offense than they have had in the past. I would watch out for their quarterback Christian Ponder as he has proved that he can run the ball in a scramble averaging 6.7 yards on the ground. Another low scoring SEC team.

Friday, October 17th

7:00PM CST on ESPN [HD]
Hawaii at #15 Boise State (W) Boise State

After starting the season 1-3, the Warriors of Hawaii have gotten back to .500 running through Fresno State and Louisiana Tech. I dont think they have enough on defense for Kellen Moore and his 1300+ yards of passing this season.

Saturday, October 18th

Saturday brings us a whole score full of games to watch. I am quite excited about this weekend to be honest with you.

11:00AM CST on FSN [HD]
#7 Texas Tech at Texas A&M (W) Texas Tech

In the Big 12 anything is possible, and if anything it should be a decent game, but look for Graham Harrell to try to let his throwing do the talking for him as he tries to get back into the running for the Heisman.

11:30AM CST on Raycom [HD]
#22 Vanderbilt at #10 Georgia (W) Georgia

Although Georgia is coming off of a loss to Alabama at home and a poor showing at home last week with Tennessee, I cannot put my trust in a quarterback who has actually run further than he has thrown. I have heard rumors of Mackenzi Adams taking over but wont believe it till I see it. With Adams at the reigns, this team becomes a little more dangerous in the passing game.

2:30PM CST on ABC [HD]
#16 Kansas at #4 Oklahoma (W) Oklahoma

With Kansas having a loss against the best team they have played, I have yet to see Tood Reesing’s full potential and I have to assume that Oklahoma is going to roll over them. Kansas is by far considered the most overrated team this season. Reesing and Sam Bradford of Oklahoma have similar stats so it should be interesting to see if the Sooner’s defense can stand up to Reesing because I know he is a stud.

Coverage Map of ABC games October 18th, 2008

2:30PM CST on ABC [HD]
#12 Ohio State at #20 Michigan State (W) Michigan State

Michigan State has been throwing up stats that are just rediculous. They also have not really played anyone either. Their only loss has come to a great Cal team. Look for Chris Wells to play hard and fast in this one.

3:30PM CST on ESPN [HD]
Michigan at #3 Penn State (W) Penn State

In order to make a bowl game this season, Michigan needs to step it up hardcore if they want any chance at the second half of their hard schedule. I want to put some trust in Threet, but after losing to Toledo, I just cant seem to muster any. Plus, Penn State just put up 48 on Wisconsin (ouch).

7:00PM CST on ABC [HD]
#11 Missouri at #1 Texas (W) Texas

What can I say? Hook em’

7:00PM CST on ESPN [HD]
#13 LSU at South Carolina (W) South Carolina

I am sorry, but to me, South Carolina has been producing far more offensively than LSU. I really don’t think South Carolina is going to have a problem with the running game of LSU. Call me crazy but I am feeling bold tonight.
