Should be a real interesting game with Washington heading into Salt Lake City this weekend to take on the Utes. I believe ESPN College GameDay will be there as well. Not only are college football playoff aspirations on the the line for Washington, but a very meaningful game for the Pac-12 North/South division standings... lots of teams still in play for that conference championship, including Colorado and Washington State (who thought that when the season began??).

Ha ha, Ohio State. Still enjoying the Penn State win over them 5 days after the fact. And wow has Oregon ever fallen off a cliff. Hard to believe after recent years, but boy do they seem to be a tire fire these days.

To that end i was perusing the lines on bodog and saw that Michigan are 25 point road favorites over Mich. St.

That seems absurd to me even with how poorly MSU has played this year considering the history and rivalry between the 2 schools.

I am in for 50 bucks on that one.

This may have been a bad decision on my part.

Was not aware that the Spartans are incapable of playing defense whatsoever. I also didnt think Dantonio could make such a stupid decision as to throw deep with 39 seconds left from deep in his own end. Which of course ended up in a Michigan players hands.

Sometimes tv announcers are so stupid. In the Baylor Texas game there was a fumble but was ruled down on the field. The very first replay showed it was a fumble and took the tv guys like 8 looks to figure that out. Was so easy to see.

^^^ Nice hit. Why Bodog though? If you're in Canada, you should use Pinnacle. Best sportsbook out there. Been using them for 10 years and have never had any issues.

Why is the Washington Utah game not on TV anywhere? TSN2 has lumberjacks on and Sportsnet has Curling. I have the college package on Bell and it's not on any of those channels either.

I'm assuming it's on FS1 but why wouldn't TSN or Sportsnet have it on? I guess people would rather watch curling than a top 20 match up. Whats the point of paying for all these channels if they show the same damn thing on all of them?

Washington-Utah is tied now at 24. Really wish that was on tv here.

Another week, another blown lead for Notre Dame. Up 20-0 now down 7. I've never seen a more mentally fragile team in my life. One thing goes wrong and all of a sudden it start unraveling.

God this season can't end soon enough.

Edit: Well that was a great response. Tie game again.

Crazy game. It's tied, less than 2 minutes to go and ND fumbles on the 1 but recovers it and they end up kicking the FG to go up 3. Finally caught a break.

Man they needed that win.

Clemson comes back and escapes Tallahassee to remain undefeated.

First time they've won there since 2006. Great game.

Was there last night, great one for sure. Some questionable officiating both ways, although Florida State seriously got jobbed on a blocking call late in the game that negated a huge rushing gain.

I still think Dalvin Cook is the best back in the country. That guy has some SERIOUS jets, wow.

CFP: Bama, Clemson, Michigan and Texas A&M are top 4, Washington 5th

Huskies not a top 4 team?

I know these mean nothing and it's just to get people talking but having a 1 loss Aggies team ahead of Washington is comical.

Still a long way to go.

Not really and i would way rather see a Huskie team in there than another SEC squad.

Thing is though that A&M has a WAY higher strength of schedule than either Washington or Ohio St., and the committee has to put some weight into that fact. The Pac 12 has done itself no favors this year with all the poor performances by a bunch of schools who have been good in recent years.

As you say however, there is a long long way to go. I also still believe that whomever loses that Michigan/Ohio St. game will be bounced from the mix all together which would allow Wash. in easily as long as they win out.

Doesn't matter. If the huskies win out they are in. I agree with the ranking, SEC is just so much better top to bottom. You can't penalize them too hard because they have one of the best teams In a generation on their schedule.

Assuming Bama can get through their two remaining big tests, which are big ones, I really want no part of Michigan right now. Hopefully they stay at 2 if Bama wins out. If Alabama loses one of these games though, barring major chaos, they're out. There's not enough time to make up for a loss this late in the season unless everyone ####s the bed.

Heisman favorite Lamar Jackson is certainly making his case stronger today.

12/17 231 yds 4 TDs

15 carries 185 yds 3 TDs

Over 400 yds and 7 TDs....and still 12 minutes left ....all against an FBS school in Boston College.

Honestly, beyond injury, there is no way this guy shouldnt be winning the statue come December 12.

Michigan trying to hold off Maryland, up 35-0 at the half.

In bad news for Clemson Watson went to the locker room with a shoulder injury. Hopefully it's only preventative since they're killing Syracuse 30-0.

Any chance LSU can do some good for the world and knock off Alabama tonight?

I am no NFL scout but I just don't see how Kizer is a 1st round pick. Love the guy but he has definitely regressed and the stats don't tell the whole story.

Wildy inaccurate, bad reads, missing wide open receivers and just his overall body language is awful.

That was the 121st ranked passing defense he faced today. I'm ready to move on from him and start Wimbush next year.

They need to now win their last 3 games just to be bowl eligible. In year 7 of this coaching staff, that is completely unacceptable.

Brian Kelly might be doing the worst coaching job in the country. It's almost like he's trying to get fired. It's the only thing that makes sense. According to 247 Sports (top recruiting site), this is a top 10 roster based on overall talent. Sure as hell aren't playing like it.
