Sacrificial Lambs of the Week (a.k.a., the biggest blowouts) When: 12:00 PM ET, ESPN Gameplan/SEC Network Why You Should Care: Oooooohhhh.....Ouch.... Chattanooga Will Win Because...: ....... Alabama Will Win Because...: ....... Keep an Eye on...: Bama K Leigh Tiffin. This will ...

When: 5:30 PM ET, ESPNU Why You Should Care: Can Bowling Green continue its run towards a bowl game? They need to win out in order to do so, but sitting at 5-5, there's a good shot they get an at-large bid with a 7-5 record. Knocking off the Zips will go a long way in that quest. Akron ...

I should note that in other coaching news, it seems a given that Western Kentucky will announce that Paul Petrino, the brother of Bobby Petrino, will be hired. It sounds like a good fit if he's schooled in the Petrino offense, but with this news, I'm probably not going to do a segment on WKU's ...

Nice, 5-2 last week. Overall, that puts the record for SSO at 36-27. As usual, the lines come from CFP via VegasInsider.com . Penn Sate -3.5 at Michigan State - Call me skeptical, but Penn State has only three victories over teams with winning records not including Eastern Illinois. Michigan ...

When: 7:30 PM ET, ESPN Why You Should Care: Really? Do we have to for a Thursday nighter? I don't even know if I'm going to watch this game as it should be boring as hell and a blowout to boot. Colorado Will Win Because...: I don't even feel like making a case for Colorado, but here goes ...

When: 6:00 PM ET, ESPNU Why You Should Care: This game is totally irrelevant in terms of the MAC title or bowl chases, but this could be a launching pad for 2010 to each program. Miami OH has shown some interesting flashes of competitiveness pretty much out of nowhere. Buffalo on the other ...

Welcome to the first edition of 2009's "Credulous Coaching Confabulations"! Well, what does that mean, exactly? "Credulous" means willing to believe something without a whole lot of reason to or evidence. "Confabulation" means to converse informally. So, in short, these are informal analyses ...

When: 8:00 PM ET, ESPN Why You Should Care: Is Tulsa going to a bowl game? This is a question that many of us thought would be inevitable, but this is a team that has suffered close loss after close loss. Whether they suffered tight defeats against Boise State or UTEP or a last ...

Hey guys, sorry I missed last week. Try to be better next/this time. 1. Smelling Roses How does Jim Tressel look now? Sure the Big 10 might be down for all we know, but this is a Buckeye team that has dealt with its fair share of adversity. From the now-seniors and now-juniors watching their ...

Sacrificial Lambs of the Week (a.k.a., the biggest blowouts) When: 12:00 PM ET, FSN Why You Should Care: Will Texas continue their run to the national title unimpeded? It sure looks that way, but Baylor might have something to say about that. Baylor could play this week's Northwestern if ...

When: 8:00 PM ET, ESPN2 Why You Should Care: Really? ESPN2? I guess there are contracts to be dealt with, but this game is in dire need of a national audience. The Big East race could hang in the balance. Cincinnati struggled mightily at putting Connecticut away and West Virginia is trying ...

Okay, not bad after 8 weeks, but I've dipped down after the last couple tries. I went 3-4 last week so that puts the last two weeks at a 5-9 mark, not good. Overall, I sit idly at 31-25 which is a bit disappointing after I got off to a solid start. Oh well, let's try again. The lines come from ...

When: 6:00 PM ET Why You Should Care: Ah, this takes me back to 2003. Well, it should take me there, but with the way both of these teams have been playing mediocre football, that's not entirely the case. However even saying that, Bowling Green is still in a position to go bowling and ...

When: 8:00 PM ET, ESPN2 Why You Should Care: Oh boy, more midweek MAC football! This should be an exciting game between two potent offenses. Toledo may be in a slump, but they can still score. Central Michigan is still trying to get a foothold on the MAC West which is still up for grabs ...

Niceeeee..... I think we've all been there before. I've felt the same frustration about previous administrations at Michigan State and there are always programs out there with institutional issues. I don't think Memphis is very committal towards their football program, so I think West is ...

When: 7:30 PM ET, ESPN2 Why You Should Care: Consider this a must-win for both teams, Ohio moreso than Buffalo. Actually, Kent State losing last Saturday was a big help for the Bobcats in their quest for one of the three MAC bids and maybe an EagleBank bid if things don't work out for the ...

Okay, so if the award is supposed to be awarded to the Most Outstanding College Football Player in Division 1, then somebody explain to me how Tim Tebow is still standing. He's having a pretty pedestrian year by his standards. While Tebow remains one of the best QBs in the college game right ...

On a side note, "The Week That Was" should get published by Monday morning. When: 8:30 PM ET, ESPN Why You Should Care: As bad as San Jose State has been this season, this might be a surprisingly decent game to watch. The Wolf Pack are on fire right now and the Spartans may not have ...
