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?
NCAA Football Open, Week 7

This every Saturday after the Saturday Lecture open NCAA thread for those of us watching football and not wanting to soil the respectable threads with cries of ‘Hook ‘em Horns’ or ‘Soooeeeee Piggie!’ and we sure don’t want to run Ralphie through a serious thread! Some of our writers would get really mad. This will be a stickie at the top of the page, its football and open, please see the ‘normal’ yet excellent threads below; get crazy and open two tabs!
Last week the big news was the LOSS that Alabama suffered at the hands of the Old Ball Coach and his South Carolina Gamecocks in an instant classic SEC matchup. That means that the #1 Ranking goes to the undefeated Ohio State Buckeyes followed by the Oregon Ducks, the Boise State Mustangs,and the Nebraska Cornhuskers OR the Texas Christian Horned Frogs. This week should sort out some of the mess after the Alabama loss. In my opinion, ‘Bama is still the best team in the NCAA and would beat any of these teams in a championship game. This could get very tricky if Boise State goes undefeated and everyone else gets a loss.
At 1530 Eastern, Texas has to travel to Lincoln to play the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The Power of N is going to want revenge for the previous beatings that Texas has laid on them in the recent past. The Blackshirts will rule this day, i almost feel sorry for the Longhorns. The game of the day may be 12 Arkansas at 7 Auburn in another great SEC game, Vegas says Auburn by 3 1/2.
At Number 1 Ohio State will travel to 18 Wisconsin…OSU has the target on their back now, lets see how the coach and his boys handle the pressure. I do feel sorry for Ole Miss, they have to go to Bama and play a very angry team.
