I’m on partial vacation this week. As a result, I didn’t get around to putting up the schedule yesterday, thinking to myself, “well, the big games will probably be this weekend.” (Ooops, I forgot Houston-Louisville was a Thursday game.)
I’m not going to let you down today. Here is this week’s schedule, and there are some excellent games (at least on paper) as the 2016 season comes down the stretch and rivalry games surface.
Definitely keep an eye on these traditional rivalries or games of national interest with playoff and conference title implications:
- No. 13 USC - UCLA
- No. 9 Oklahoma - No. 14 West Virginia
- Stanford-Cal in The Game
- No. 21 Washington State - No. 10 Colorado
- (dangerous) Indiana - No. 3 Michigan and,
- No. 23 Florida - No. 16 LSU
