Welcome to tune-up week, featuring exactly one game between ranked teams.
Your title contenders play Mercer, The Citadel, Virginia, Kansas, Louisiana Monroe, Navy and Illinois. In an ironic twist, Wisconsin is the only one who plays anybody, facing off against Michigan.
On top of that, no FBS teams play on Thursday or Friday. Woof.
Tuesday - Despite pulling off
this
beauty, Ohio lost to Akron, which means that unless Akron loses to 2-9 Kent State, Ohio will be shut out of the MACTION CHAMPIONship game

Both teams enter at 4-6, so bowl eligibility is on the line. That's about as exciting as it's going to get today, folks

342 West Virginia -3½
WVU still has a shred of hope in the Big-12 title race, while Texas is 29th in the Sagarin Predictor (1 spot ahead of WVU and 1 spot behind "number 17" sparty) It should, at least, be a decent game.
12:00 PM 373 SMU +11½
374 Memphis -11½
12:00 PM 375 Virginia 19
376 Miami Florida -19
Well, UVA's beaten Georgia Tech and Boise State, so there's at least a chance this could be interesting. Miami is probably a lock to come out really slow, and who knows what happens next. Probably lots and lots of turnover chain is what happens next.
12:00 PM 379 Mississippi State -12
380 Arkansas 12
12:00 PM 385 UL Monroe 37
386 Auburn -37
12:00 PM 415 Michigan +7½

The only game this week between ranked teams. If there is any football justice, Michigan will end this "Wisconsin playoff" chatter sooner rather than later

Lamar Jackson & Bobby P vs. Eric Dungey (hopefully) and Dino Babers, who is apparently FIFTY SIX years old.

368 Ohio State -40½
3:30 PM 387 Kansas State +20½
388 Oklahoma State -20½
Ok State's playoff hopes are still alive, albeit on life support. Skylar Thompson gets his second start (he looked no good and very bad against wv)
3:30 PM 389 San Jose State +32½
390 Colorado State -32½
3:30 PM 395 Navy 18
396 Notre Dame -18
ND also has slim playoff hopes, and they'll get to test them against a team that wears the same uniforms.
4:00 PM 339 Maryland +16½
340 Michigan State -16½
Penn State and Michigan are both really hoping for Sparty to choke here (I think?) I assume Maryland is starting a punter or something at QB at this point.
4:00 PM 369 UAB +10½
370 Florida -10½
Two years ago UAB canceled their football program. Now they're back, they're 7-3, and they're looking to beat the Gators. I assume Maryland's punter is also coaching Florida as well. Also, how hilarious is it that UCF, USF, FAU and FIU are ALL better than UF and FSU? Pretty hilarious.
4:00 PM 391 Nebraska 26
392 Penn State -26
5:00 PM 399 New Mexico State -4

In case you stopped watching after their one televised game against USC, Kahlil Tate did more Kahlil Tate things last week, racking up 206 yards on 16 carries against Oregon State.
7:00 PM 393 LSU -15½
394 Tennessee +15½

412 UTSA -1
7:00 PM 413 Texas A&M 3
414 Mississippi -3
7:30 PM 333 NC State 2
334 Wake Forest -2
Nothing is at stake, but these teams are not bad and fun to watch
7:30 PM 381 Missouri -8½
382 Vanderbilt +8½
8:00 PM 417 UCLA 16
418 USC -16
CHOSEN ROSEN VERSUS SAM DARNOLD! HOME JERSEYS VESRUS HOME JERSEYS!
8:00 PM 419 California +15½
420 Stanford -15½
It's gonna be hilarious and a total embarrassment to the Pac-12, but Cal is definitely winning this game. And I don't even mean that in a homer sense, I legit mean that Wilcox is so, so, so far ahead of Shaw as an in-game coach that it's probably worth at least 15.5 points, and that makes the game a flip. And Stanford sucks, so Cal wins the flip.
