Who’s for real, who gets to steal. Getting down to the end where a loss can put a team out of the playoffs or a win can let a team sneak into a conference championship game.
Tuesday and Wednesday we get that MAC action, for those who can’t get enough football, games all week.
University of Buffalo which was a laughingstock a few years ago is now at 8-1 and aiming for a conference championship. Kent state at 2-7 shouldn’t provide much of a threat despite fans of a certain school in red arguing that 2-7 is a sign of greatness.
Thursday night gives us (21) North Carolina state hosting a Wake Forest team that is only 4-5 but has played some teams tougher than their record would indicate.
On Friday Louisville who is 2-7 (and wishes they could be special like that other 2-7 school in red) goes to (19) Syracuse.
The interesting game of the night is in the Mountain West with (23) Fresno State on the blue turf of Boise. Boise is not in their usual spot on top of the league but they are 7-2 and the biggest national name so this is a chance for Fresno to get some recognition.
Only two games this week between ranked teams and neither looks to be a close match. (2) Clemson visits (22) Boston College and (1) Alabama host (18) Mississippi State.
A couple of other games don’t look to be close but potentially could impact the playoff picture. (4) Notre Dame historically has stumbled against an unranked team each year. This week they have Florida State in who has been bad but does have some talented individuals. Auburn is also unranked but talented enough to give (6) Georgia a scare.
(10) Ohio State looked disinterested last week against the corn. This week they have the Michigan State Nasty Nassers who at 6-3 are much better than the 2 win champions.
Other teams we want to see lose include Baylor at (24) Iowa State and (14) Pedo State facing visiting Wisconsin who at 6-3 could extend the Pedo apologist recent slide.
The 4-5 Illinois Illini must be shaking in their cleats. After all they are playing in the delusions zone after the fusker fans have now designated themselves as the greatest 2 win team in history. Notice how they haven’t said much about the greatest 3 win team, might have something to do with them sucking bad enough that they are not likely to pick up another win. If they don’t get it this week they won’t because they finish with Michigan State and Iowa, two teams that won’t be impressed by their red tinted fantasies.
What is it with Head Coach Frosty and teams declaring themselves champions that nobody else recognizes or takes seriously.
Wyoming gets the week off.
AFA coming off a tough loss to Army gets a chance to feel better hosting a bad and undisciplined New Mexico, a chance for Air Force to pick up a needed win.
The Sheep coming off their bye week (otherwise called Bobo didn’t give us another reason to want him fired week) go to Nevada who is 5-4 and pushing for bowl eligibility. At least the Rams don’t have to lose in front of their own fans disguised as empty seats after Halloween.
Local FCS has Northern Colorado travelling to Montana State. If Nebraska thinks being 2-7 makes them good then UNC with one more loss at 2-8 must be great.
Small colleges give us the last week of the regular season. After Colorado Mines was upset last week by Dixie State, Mines and Pueblo have identical 8-1 records and are hoping for national playoff seeding.
Mines has the tiebreaker for the conference title but Pueblo was only two spots behind them in the national rankings prior to their loss.
Mines host Chadron and Pueblo goes to Western State.
