  • Baylor at Kansas State 6:30 pm FS1 / FS Go Video (Can the Bears vault past the tree nuts?  With the Jayhawks suffering through a 3-4 season to date, even an impressive win would make that seem unlikely, unless Minnesota can pull the upset over tOSU on Saturday)

  • Rice at UTEP 7:00 pm CBSSN
  • Temple at SMU 7:00 pm ESPN2 / WatchESPN (Mr. T would say, "I pity the fool...", as  the 1-7 Mustangs will face an Owl squad that surely will be pissed off after last week's 24-20 loss to the Irish, who went down 20-17 with less than 5 minutes to play but then scored with a little over 2 minutes on the clock, and then intercepted an Owl pass to end a threat).
  • BYU at San Jose State 10:30 pm CBSSN

  • Charlotte at Florida International 11:00 am CSCA *4 / ASN (affiliates TBA)

  • Illinois at Purdue 11:00 am BTN / BTN2Go Video

  • Virginia at Miami 2:00 pm (ESPN Extra / espn3) blackouts / FSN Affiliates / ACC-RSN (Miami practiced for last week's game vs Duke by lateraling Al Golden to the showers, and then honed their talents on an 8-lateral TD - not without controversy.  This is the type of opponent the Cavaliers ALWAYS lose to in the last few seconds, typically on an interception in the end zone or blocked FG - and in the process giving my Wahoo diehard father a heart attack).
  • Arizona State at Washington State 2:30 pm FS1 / FS Go Video
  • Arkansas at Ole Miss 2:30 pm CBS / CBS Video (Ole Miss enters 4-1 in the SEC (7-2 overall), but the 4-4 Razorbacks typically get up for these kinds of games)

  • Towson at Maine 6:00 pm SNY / ASN (affiliates TBA)
  • Auburn at Texas A&M 6:30 pm SEC Network / WatchESPN (At the beginning of the season, both teams probably expected this to be a crucial game.  Today?  Not so much, although it could still prove entertaining).

I desperately want a Big 12 team in the playoff.    I know TCU is way down this year compared to last year, but if they can make it unscathed they deserve it.  I still think they would have won the playoff if they got  a chance last year.
 
I want to see Briles or Peterson going head to head with Saban or Meyer

I think OSU will pull off one upset at home, and it probably will be OU (which is an upset because OU really is the better team). Then they lose on the road to Iowa state to completely negate it, wind up 9-3, and 3rd in the big 12. If a big 12 team goes 9-0 in conference, they deserve a spot. Even if it's the Cowboys (fat chance) they'll deserve a spot. I think Baylor and TCU have a better chance of getting that spot if they got undefeated than OK State does. They hosed OK State once for Alabama, they'll do it again.

You have no idea how much I want to see this happen. I'm surrounded by dipshit Baylor fans and nothing would give me more glee than to once again hear them whine about being left out, because OFFENSE.

Blueprint for Baylor being printed now. You will score to be sure -- just don't do it too quickly. Run tons of clock, keep it close into 4th, and maybe you pull it out. Alabama and others would put up 400+ yards on the ground against these guys.

They tried the same thing with TCU.  Yes you can play keep away.  Try to run and keep them off the field,  BUT as KSt is finding out, you have to score 7 every time.
 
That's why you want a Baylor or a TCU in the playoff,  then you have a chess match.  As opposed to someone like a ND who is a good team, but there is nothing special about them,  no chess match elements

Anyone watching penn st? Am I the only one wondering why Franklin didn't start calling time out with a couple mins left?

James Franklin wasted a good 45 seconds by not calling a TO. NW kicked a go-ahead FG (now up 23-21) with 8 seconds left.

Coaching clock management is abysmal.

Terrible PF on FSU there, some on the guy was still inbounds when he hit him.

Oklahoma State with back to back bombs down the sideline to burner, James Washington, up 14-6 now on TCU in the 1st. I want all of these big 12 teams to get exposed for the gimmicks they are. Offensive juggernauts and nothing else. I firmly believe Baylor, TCU, etc. would get absolutely destroyed by teams like Ohio State, Clemson, LSU, Alabama, etc. that can play on both sides of the ball.

I also really, really hope ND doesn't sneak into the playoffs with one loss. If I had to choose between them and an undefeated Big 12 team, give me the Big 12 team.

Yeah that is going to be a very hard one to explain away. GT has 3 relatively tough games left, they might end up losing 9 of their last 10 with the one win being beating FSU

This is my favorite tweet in a while.

@JimmieTramel: TCU in its biggest hole since being tossed in a ditch when Southwest Conference disbanded.

Iowa in a dog fight with an underrated Indiana team. 21-17 Iowa halfway through the 3rd.

Oklahoma State defender stepped out at the 1, no touchdown, but knocking on the door.

Louisiana Tech RB, Kenneth Dixon with 4 more touchdowns so far today. Who cares, you ask? That now gives him 68 career on the ground, to go along with his 11 receiving. I believe the record from scrimmage is around 83, and he and Keenan Reynolds from Navy are neck and neck on who will finish the season with the record. If Dixon didn't miss parts of 2 seasons with injuries (he 5td's as a sophomore, after scoring 28 as a freshman, and 28 more as a junior, and he missed about 3 games this season), he'd be knocking on the door of 100 right now.

LOL. Boykin gets the quick score to close the gap and get some momentum, and Rudolph heaves one up to James Washington again for 74 yard touchdown to answer right back. The Big 12 no defense show continues. 42-16 with about 8 minutes left in the 3rd. Amazingly, you can't even call the game over at this point.

Putrid play calling by FSU on that drive. Just embarrassing and they are pissing away an amazing performance by their D.
