A ranking of this week’s
television games that I personally find most intriguing, top to bottom.
All games Saturday, September 9 unless noted
Oklahoma at Ohio St. 6:30
PM ABC
Marquis matchup. Ohio St. will have to play better than they did in the
opener.
Georgia at Notre Dame 6:30 PM NBC
Big game for my Irish. Big game for Brian Kelly, too.
Iowa at Iowa St. 11:00 AM
ESPN2
Hawkeyes have a history of struggling in this game.
Pitt at Penn St. 2:30 PM
ABC
I went out on a limb and had this one penciled in as an upset loss for
Penn St. when doing my preseason predictions. After week 1, that forecast seems
even further out on the limb.
Western Michigan at
Michigan St. 2:30 PM BTN
Western Michigan gave USC a scare last Saturday. This seems to be a
more likely spot for an upset. It’ll be my first look at Sparty.
Nebraska at Oregon 3:30 PM
FOX
I need to get a better look at Nebraska. This game will be a good
barometer.
Minnesota at Oregon St. 9:00
PM FS1
Truthfully, I probably won’t make it to the finish line on this one. The
day starts early and this is a late one.
Ohio at Purdue 7:00 PM
FS1 Friday, September 8
I won’t get to see much, if any, of this one. I don’t make plans to
watch college football on Friday nights. I am interested in seeing more of
Purdue, though.
Cincinnati at
Michigan 11:00 PM ABC
I was impressed with Michigan last Saturday. I expect a bit of a letdown
after the big win.
Western Kentucky at
Illinois 7:00 PM BTN
Can Illinois continue win against nonpower conference opponents?
Oddsmakers say no.
Eastern Michigan at
Rutgers 2:30 PM BTN
Can’t believe I have games listed below this one.
Florida Atlantic at
Wisconsin 11:00 AM BTN
I do need to get a good look at Wisconsin, but considering the competition,
I don’t think I’ll learn too much about the Badgers in this one.
Towson at Maryland 11:00 AM
BTN
Hmmm…Towson……….Pete?
Indiana at Virginia 2:30 PM
ESPNU
I don’t have access to ESPNU.

I like Ohio St and Georgia in the two big match-ups. Take the points and GA, and give 7 to OK. A teaser would be ironclad. Rip me on Monday. I'm used to it.
ReplyDeleteI believe I won my bet here.
