BC getting six at GT looks light. Future opponent watch.

CoachB · Friday at 2:50 PM

Seems like a good weekend to get other things done.

Jiggafini19Deux · Friday at 2:52 PM

21Boise State	@ Washington State	5:00 PM	USA Net	Martin Stadium, Pullman, WA	Line: BOIS -13.5 O/U: 53.5

Virginia Tech	@ Clemson	6:00 PM	ESPN	Memorial Stadium (Clemson, SC), Clemson, SC	Line: CLEM -2.5 O/U: 49.5

Coach Prime ain't hard to find, but the positive trajectory of this program is.
Franklin vs Dabo. Both teams can't lose.

Jiggafini19Deux · Friday at 2:55 PM

Massive game for Texas.
If SC loses, Riley's seat gets that much hotter.
The coaching carousel is open. Jason Eck's name is going to be mentioned a lot. New Mexico Football worth checking out.
Houston at Utah is the game I would want to see most this weekend.

thekid33 · Friday at 2:56 PM

Pretty blah slate of games this weekend. Sickos only kind of weekend.

Wisconsin could do us a huge solid in multiple ways.

Also, I was this many years and days old when I discovered that Houston is ranked 14th.

I feel this way most weekends. "There's only one team we watch in this house."

Seriously, after Indiana and Ohio State, I'm probably good until the playoffs.

Yep, I am planning on no games this week.

If I don't put on CFP on Saturday my wife will claim the TV and watch reruns of Chicago Fire, Police, Med, Sanitation or whatever other version of that show exists

But, it's going to be tough faking enough interest in any of those to convince her that I am deeply invested in watching

NotKoon · Friday at 3:18 PM

Best two games kick off at 10 eastern time

I’ll probably go with the WVU-TCU game at noon to watch that awesome running attack WVU has. Do Floyd of the Rosedale at 3:30 since I want to see what Fleck would do with the pig trophy to follow up his little brown jug shenanigans. Prime time will just be seeing who of Dabo, Lincoln, Sark manages to get their seat the hottest

RudyVerse · Friday at 3:35 PM

Surprised SC is favored over Tennessee. Wouldn't hurt to know Tennessee out and cheer for them rest of the way.

Jiggafini19Deux · Friday at 4:04 PM

Indiana at Michigan
BYU at UCF
Houston at Utah

I do want to check out the New Mexico Lobos simply for the Eck factor.

stpeteirish · Friday at 4:32 PM

Pretty weak week especially when you consider virtually all conference games so no FCS buy games.

I was ready to jump on Boise +13.5 vs Washington. Oops.

calvegas04 · Friday at 5:31 PM

Will be watching UCLA and how the finish the year. If their coach doesn't get poached we need to get them on the schedule for Oct and Thanksgiving weekend

Irish#1 · Friday at 9:24 PM

Good weekend to do some work around the yard

Dale · Friday at 9:31 PM

Beau Pribula is addicted to taking sacks. He loves em

Dale · Friday at 10:10 PM

Wow. Nate Sheppard TD pass for the lead with a minute left

Dale · Friday at 10:15 PM

Manny is lowkey exactly what Florida State needs. He may not win a natty, but he’ll find a way to win games and stop being a complete embarrassment

NDPhilly · Friday at 10:58 PM

NC State really just needs to move on from Doreen. Try something new, if for nothing else to getting some new excitement around the program. He’s averaged 7.4 and 5.6 for 14 years.

spoonidentity · Friday at 11:02 PM

How does Stanford's offense look so explosive tonight? Did they get better since ND? Or is NC State that bad?

WineGate · Friday at 11:19 PM

These are two of the worst defenses in the ACC so it's hard to say if Stanford got better

T-Boone · Friday at 11:40 PM

I think Michigan will upset Indiana. That is my big prediction.

irishff1014 · Friday at 11:56 PM

Andrew luck get off the field due. Dude is lost his like ability.

Dale · 2026-10-24T09:19:45-0400

Stanford is 4 - 0 in ACC 10:00 ET kickoff games

NC State is a bottom 5 pass defense in the P4

irishff1014 · 2026-10-24T10:25:50-0400

I can get used to the watching the Big noon kickoff opposed to Gameday.

rtrn2glory · 2026-10-24T10:32:07-0400

I've been doing that for the last 3-4 years

fightingirish26 · 2026-10-24T11:40:04-0400

Zero interest in either show. Watching soccer+tennis this morning.

KMac151993 · 2026-10-24T12:07:40-0400
