Games in the top-25 that stand out:
Alabama (1st) at Texas. No line yet on ESPN. Does Saban reclamation project Steve Sarkisian have the "Longhorns" improved from a horrible first year.
Baylor (10th) at BYU (25th). If Baylor players still like "white girls" they will love playing in Provo.
Tennessee at Pitt. Panthers (17th) -4. Revenge for Josh Heupel and the Vols in Johnny Majors Bowl II? Utah blasted ritual sacrifice Balls Tate. Pitt won an epic Backyard Brawl.
Kentucky (20th) at Florida. KY's first real game. Billy Naps' second. Letdown? Don't think so.
Outside the T-T, Iowa State plays at Iowa. I have worked up an impressive loathing for the "Hawkeyes." Syracuse at UConn. God, did Dumbo Babers need yesterday's thrashing of Lewisville. He can't afford to lose to UConn. It says here he won't. The "Poodles" look capable of being competitive under Jim Mora. They went to Utah State and although they lost the point spread was double the end margin. They beat Central Connecticut State yesterday by a lot. They need a win over a real team. They have a reasonable shot against 'Cuse. Boston College at Va. Tech. Somebody has to win this game. The "Pigeons" collapsed against Ruptures at home. Va. Tech lost at Odious U. If there was relegation in college football the loser of this one would have a seat in Conference USA.
