A November College Football Watch List

Second weekend in November means no team can afford
to make a mistake, bowl bids are a precious commodity,
and some coaches can save their jobs with impressive wins
this late in the season.  Stay tuned!
 
Here are a few games to keep an eye on: 
 
1. Oregon St vs Stanford - maybe one of these two actually
gets a BCS bowl if they finish off string enough. 
   
2. Texas A&M vs Alabama. -Never underestimate the
upset, I don't see it here, but you'll be on the edge of your
if by some chance it's close in the 3rd and 4th quarter.  
   
3. Nebraska vs Penn St -Nebraska can ruin their season if
they drop this one, and Penn St can put the Ohio St loss
behind them if they can steal one like this one on the road. 
   
Honorable Mentions:
Notre Dame vs Boston College 
Miss St vs LSU
Northwestern vs Michigan

A College Football Watch List For Your Weekend

Marvin Gentry/US Presswire 
  

These games are really living up to the hype most weeks,
and last week was really no different.  A pretty solid 
lineup all around and though this week may be no less
important it's still gonna be hard to match.
 
Here are a few to keep an eye on: 
 
1. Alabama vs LSU - This game is really a no brainer.
There's alot on the line and the loser will most probably
be knocked out contention for any shot at the title. 

2. Texas A&M vs Mississippi St. -Mississippi St already
showed you last week that they aren't in the same class as
Alabama yet, but a W here from either team can get them
high enough in the top ten if they run the table the rest of
the way to get them a decent BCS Bowl bid.
  
3. Nebraska vs Michigan St -Nebraska trying to show it
can win an important road game, and Michigan St will try
to show it can beat a ranked opponent.

Honorable Mentions:
Texas Tech vs Texas 
Oregon vs USC
Oklahoma St vs Kansas St.

College Football Worth Keeping In Mind

Courtesy of University of Michigan

This feature here that has College Football games
I think are worth a look can sometimes offer a
few interesting nuggets, especially since the
season is starting to wind down. Last week the
Nebraska Penn State game was all the buzz, here
are some that you may find interesting this week.

1. Wisconsin vs Illinois
The Illini were once 6-0, now 6-4, Badgers need this
2. Nebraska vs Michigan St
Can Nebraska win tough back to back road games?
3. Penn St vs Ohio St
Two once proud programs face off to forget
4. Boston College vs Notre Dame
A holy war of sorts that ND needs to stay on course
5. USC vs Oregon
Could be huge, and the Ducks are still in the hunt
6. Cal vs Stanford
Interstate rivalry that means more than their records

BONUS: How did Alabama, South Carolina, and Florida
wind up with three cupcakes like Georgia Southern,
The Citadel, and Furman this late in the season?
