Thursday Night
6:30 - NC State @ Georgia Tech - ESPN - Would love to see Ga Tech go on a roll and end up ranked

Morning Games (Saturday)
11:00 - #5 Indiana @ #2 Ohio State - FOX - An argument could be said that it does not matter who wins this game, but I think IU winning helps ND the most here. A 2-loss OSU team in the regular season will drop below ND
11:00 - #9 Ole Miss @ Florida - ABC - Could Florida pull up another upset?
11:00 - #13 SMU @ Virginia - ESPN2 - Mostly because SMU is in play, I do not see the upset happening, but I would love to see it
11:00 - Wake Forest @ #8 Miami - ESPN - Doesn’t effect ND at all, but lets see how good Miami looks

Afternoon Games (Saturday)
2:30 - Kentucky @ #3 Texas - ABC - Upset would be fun to watch, but there will be a SEC team seeded above ND regardless of who it is.
2:30 - #4 Penn State @ Minnesota - CBS - Gonna root hard for the Gophers, at least make it a very close game
2:30 - #14 BYU @ #21 Arizona State - ESPN - Should be competitive and the BIGXII may not get a BYE
2:30 - #16 Colorado @ Kansas - FOX - Kansas looking for another upset
2:30 - Wisconsin @ Nebraska - BTN - Should be very competitive
3:00 - Pittsburgh @ Louisville - ESPN2 - Sucks that Louisville lost, but if they win these next two games, they could be ranked again

Evening Games (Saturday)
6:00 - #19 Army @ #6 Notre Dame - NBC - Go Irish! This will be at Yankee Stadium.
6:30 - #7 Alabama @ Oklahoma - ABC - Another upset I would like to see, but Bama is looking good right now
6:30 - #15 Texas A&M @ Auburn - ESPN - Need A&M to keep winning and possibly play for the SEC CG.
6:45 - Vanderbilt @ LSU - SECN - LSU is on its 3rd straight loss. Can Vandy pull off another big upset

Late Night Game (Saturday)
9:30 - USC @ UCLA - NBC - Another scouting opportunity for our final opponent, rooting for USC to win here and possibly be ranked next week.

A ton of good games this week!

Thursday: NC State @ Georgia Tech, let’s go Yellow Jakcets!

Saturday -

Morning: Indiana @ Ohio State, and I do think we need Indiana to win this one!

Afternoon: Colorado @ Kansas, and think we’ll see if Colorado really is for real this season!

Evening: Army @ Notre Dame, Go Irish!!!

Late Night: USC @ UCLA, and in all honesty I want to see USC lose! No need for them to gain any momentum!

I think an OSU blowout win over IU will all but eliminate IU from playoff talk. This may be their only shot to really impress the committee against a good team. I believe they are highly ranked only to hype tis game up.

Ga Tech wins in a nail biter! The week is off to a good start for ND!

I was watching that game and thought Tech blew it, but they managed the last minute drive.

Let’s hope they can beat Georgia next week too! 🤞🏼

Just to play devil’s advocate, an IU win, should put both OSU and PSU below ND. OSU gets another loss, PSU loss to OSU doesn’t look as “good” anymore. Best case scenario, while unlikely but it can happen(think Purdue/Iowa in 16-17-18?), is an IU blowout over OSU.

Of course this is as long as ND continues to take care of business.
