College Football Week Eight Continues: Saturday Afternoon and Evening Games Open Thread


We're getting closer to kickoff of the Cal-Utah game at AT&T Park. Are you getting excited? I bet you are. But keep it to yourself. This is a PG-rated blog. And, plus, your game thread for Cal-Utah will be up later.

This is your open thread for today's afternoon and evening games. Lots to talk about there. And that doesn't even include the Pac-12 marquee matchup between Washington and Stanford, which, quite frankly, I won't be watching because it would make me nauseous if I did. Besides the Huskies and the Indians Cardinals Cardinal, we have--

  • Auburn at LSU (CBS): The # 1 team in the land tries to beat the defending national champs, notwithstanding the suspension of several players, reportedly due to a positive test for synthetic marijuana. (Huh -- kids don't even do the natural stuff anymore?!?)
  • Oregon at Colorado (FSN): You like carnage? This could be your game.
  • Air Force at Boise State (Versus): Your chance to see the blue turf.
  • USC at Notre Dame (NBC): A storied rivalry.
  • Texas Tech at Oklahoma (ABC): Texas Tech gives up a lot of points. Oklahoma scores a lot of points. This is not a good recipe for Texas Tech, is it?
  • Oregon State vs. Washington State, in Seattle (FSN): Wouldn't that be sort of like us playing a conference game in, say, Palo Alto?
A full schedule of games is here. See a user friendly listing of televised games after the jump.
