Here’s the week 10 BCS ranking:

.

1 Oregon 8-0
2 Auburn 9-0
3 TCU 9-0
4 Boise State 7-0
5 Utah 8-0
6 Alabama 7-1
7 Nebraska 7-1
8 Oklahoma 7-1
9 Wisconsin 7-1
10 LSU 7-1

I’m sorry sports fans, Oregon does not beat Auburn OR Alabama. Meanwhile, Boise State gets ignored. One day there will be a playoff system.

Highlight games form ESPN:

12:30 PM ETNo. 21 Baylor at No. 17 Oklahoma State –that the RANKED Baylor Bears who beat the Longhorns.

3:30 PM ETNo. 6 Alabama at No. 10 LSU –always a great game

3:30 PM ETNo. 3 TCU at No. 5 Utah —this is a big one here.

7:00 PM ETNo. 18 Arkansas at No. 19 South Carolina — SEC streetfight

8:00 PM ETNo. 15 Arizona at No. 13 Stanford — AZ rising in the rankings out of nowhere!

So, grab a beverage of your choice, make some meat on a grill, and lets watch some football.

Today at noon, our local college the Robert Morris University Colonials play Central Connecticut for the right to represent the NEC in the DI-AA playoffs. Kickoff is at noon at Joe Walton Stadium…he is also their coach and founder of the team. Yes, the Joe Walton from the NFL…So, root for the Colonials!

NCAA Football Open Thread

Ok,  you know the drill!

This is the College Football open/have a few beers all day sports and other things open thread.

In the last 3 weeks the #1 has lost…’Bama, OK, and Ohio State. These week the #2 or #1 depending on the poll Oregon Ducks have to play the USC Trojans. The Trojans have been smacked with NCAA penalties for rules violation in 2005 and are not allowed in a bowl game this year of next. This means they sure as hell wont want their rivals the Ducks to be #1.  Spoiler alert here.

I do not believe the Ducks are the best team in America, that would be the Alabama Crimson Tide or Auburn.  As of right now,  the championship game would be probably between Auburn and Oregon, Auburn wins that easily.  This sets up the Auburn Alabama rivalry game to be a real treat in a few weeks.

Here is the AP top 10

1 Oregon (44) 7-0 1480
2 Boise State (11) 6-0 1419
3 Auburn (3) 8-0 1376
4 TCU (2) 8-0 1354
5 Michigan State 8-0 1175
6 Alabama 7-1 1173
7 Missouri 7-0 1121
8 Utah 7-0 1098
9 Wisconsin 7-1 1022
10 Ohio State 7-1 931

Today’s big games: The 3:30 game #6 Missouri and #14 Nebraska looks good, the Georgia BUlldogs at Florida Gators is always a great game.

At 7:00 the 25!!!Baylor Bears are at the UNRANKED Texas Longhorns. Ya dont see that very often.

At 8:oo 1 or 2 Oregon goes to LA to play a very angry USC Trojans team…ducksoup maybe?
