Today's Schedule of Games
Ohio St. at Michigan St. at noon. Maybe that meteorite that Harvard says is actually an alien space probe was sent to destroy Sparty stadium during this game today. That would be a sign of intelligent life.
Also at noon, Wisconsin at Penn St. I'm rooting for a Penn State loss for recruiting reasons. Talk of James Franklin being back on the hot seat after he lost his unicorn OC and RB will only help our recruiting in the east.
Our game at 3:30. At 3:40, check in on Miss. State at Alabama, Northwestern at Iowa, Oklahoma St. at Oklahoma, and Washington St. at Colorado.
At night, Clemson at Boston College is the highlighter. This could get interesting . . .
Also, if FSU can get their heads out of their asses, they do have wickedly talented 4 / 5 star athletes that could give Notre Dame a challenge.

Here's a fancy schmancy schedule link with some nice aesthetically pleasing graphics:

I like this link, thanks.

Thank you. I have added this link to my phone's home screen, so I can check scores without driving my girlfriend crazy
November 10th, 2018 at 10:29 AM ^
I like fancy schmancy!
November 10th, 2018 at 11:34 AM ^
Add me to the list of those who like this. Thanks!

Thanks for posting this each week (if you’re the one who does). I’m already looking at this site first thing each morning and on Sat. mornings I can look at your thread and easily figure out what games I want to watch and what channel. Thanks!
November 10th, 2018 at 8:57 AM ^
It's kinda fun to do. There are always some interesting games that you never really knew about.
I'll probably be out of town the Sat. after thanksgiving, so I'll have to pass the baton on to somebody else for that week. Here's the narrative ahead of time:
12:00 The Game. After that, MGoBlog for celebrations and 11 Warriors for schadenfreude until 1:00 AM.
The end.
November 10th, 2018 at 1:15 PM ^
Please re-post the whiniest.

The commentary is excellent this morning, M-Dog!!! Upvote for the effort!
I'll be spending some time today doing some therapeutic things with the wife. We had to let go of our 13 year old yorkie yesterday, which she had literally babied every day of its life, so my usual level of Saturday football will not happen. Thank God this is Rutger weekend, and the rivalry game is later in the day, I'm hoping to get some time this afternoon in front of the TV...
Keep the open threads entertaining, I'll check in every now and then!
November 10th, 2018 at 8:33 AM ^
Interesting slate of games, I know its not likely but i find it very interesting if Alabama loses to Miss st today. I think that would make the possibility of alabama getting in with two losses slimmer and may make it so UM is really controlling their own destiny.
November 10th, 2018 at 8:43 AM ^
Alabama will not have 2 losses this year. This is a bad take
November 10th, 2018 at 8:50 AM ^
Yea I said its very unlikely, but you never know, go Bulldogs and go spartans! Ugh I cant believe I said that
November 10th, 2018 at 9:02 AM ^
Alabama will not get into the playoff with two losses unless every other candidate has two losses also (except UCF — 2-loss Alabama probably gets in ahead of undefeated UCF). The only exception I can think of is if they have two losses and win the SEC, in which case Georgia gets left out and so there’s no danger to Michigan.
So, yes, it’s perfectly reasonable to root against the Tide through the Auburn game — but if they finish the regular season 12-0, you’d really like to see them go 13-0.
November 10th, 2018 at 9:11 AM ^
Georgia losing to Auburn today seems more likely and eliminates them leap frogging us if they beat Alabama in the SEC title game...because that would be their 2nd loss.
November 10th, 2018 at 10:03 AM ^
This!
November 10th, 2018 at 10:47 AM ^
We have our eyes elsewhere, but the Auburn - Georgia game is probably more significant to us than any other game today.
If Auburn beats Georgia there is no 2-SEC team scenario. Since we have to win out no matter what, it won't matter then what anybody else does.
If ND wins out our only loss is a "good loss", better than what OU or WVU would have. If ND loses, it's going to be to a bad team and they have no CCG to help make it up. They would probably drop below us.
November 10th, 2018 at 8:38 AM ^
OSU MSU must watch...how will osu run game look vs good rush D? Improved or still sucky?
Hoping for ND loss!
November 10th, 2018 at 8:46 AM ^
Yes
and Yes.
I'm also going to check out a bit of the Indiana game because I want to see for myself that all the CHAOS demons have been exercised this year.
November 10th, 2018 at 11:15 AM ^
Hopefully they were exorcised and not exercised...
(sorry to be that guy)
November 10th, 2018 at 9:15 AM ^
I question the Buckeyes' Fortitude. I don't think they care enough to win this game. The Spartans are going to out-tough them and that's why they are going to win.
November 10th, 2018 at 8:40 AM ^
Root for every no loss team(except UCF) to win and every one loss team(besides U of M) to lose. Simple as that. I am hoping that the current four continue to distance themselves this weekend. OSU gets run today. Its gonna be cold and windy, which will play right into Moo Us strengths.
November 10th, 2018 at 8:57 AM ^
I'm rooting for the opposite. All the no loss teams to lose except UCF to win. Why would you want Michigan to face Bama or Clemson in a potential CFP?
November 10th, 2018 at 9:16 AM ^
Because we fear nobody. Running scared is for pansies...
Bama and Clemson are the standard-bearers in college football today, and you aren't the best until you beat the best and earn that title yourself.
Anyone that wants to avoid playing the best teams because they're good can GTHO.
::feeling salty this morning::
November 10th, 2018 at 8:52 AM ^
I hope that my belief that this is a very good (stress free) day to be a Michigan fan holds true.
November 10th, 2018 at 8:55 AM ^
I'd really like to see Auburn knock off Georgia to end the 2 SEC teams talk. OSU at OU also has some potential.
November 10th, 2018 at 9:36 AM ^
Agreed. People were talking about hoping Bama loses to eliminate the 2 SEC team idea, but UGA losing another one is far more likely. Auburn knocking them out today is our best bet. Don't sleep on the Yellow Jackets though
November 10th, 2018 at 8:58 AM ^
How is the weather in East lansing ? If shitty then I'm taking MSU outright. OSU doesn't seem tough enough to play in that weather.
November 10th, 2018 at 9:03 AM ^
Its colder than a witchs tit, snow is on the ground but I dont think there is any more in the forecast for today.
November 10th, 2018 at 9:04 AM ^
33 degree...snow showers...13 mph winds at kickoff
November 10th, 2018 at 9:06 AM ^
I'm a little worried that the bad weather makes Meyer realize he has 2 stud backs who should be getting 15-20 carries a game each and they turn into a solid rushing team.
November 10th, 2018 at 9:13 AM ^
It's the design of the offense and what looks to be a fairly poor line that creating issues at OSU. Just because they decide to start handing the ball off, doesnt necessarily mean it's going to work. Particularly against the #1 rush defense in the country.
November 10th, 2018 at 9:19 AM ^
I thought we were the #1 rush defense in the country.
We should fix that.
November 10th, 2018 at 10:15 AM ^
Today should help
November 10th, 2018 at 9:18 AM ^
They miss JT. Their backs are good, but their O line is not good enough to just run them straight up. Look for Haskins to get some designed runs to try to loosen up the Sparty front 7. Don't think it will work that well though.
It might not matter, I don't know that Sparty's running game is good enough to take advantage of OSU's weakness against the run. Haskins will have a better passing day than Lewerke and that should be enough.
November 10th, 2018 at 11:33 AM ^
OSU can't run the ball because they don't have the right scheme or chops along the O-line to go 10 v 11. It has nothing to do with Meyer ignoring the RBs.
November 10th, 2018 at 9:32 AM ^
Can't wait for OSU-MSU.
I bet Clemson beats BC by 30 making it that much more difficult for the committee to try to figure out how to convince themselves the ACC is awesome
November 10th, 2018 at 9:45 AM ^
I don’t understand why so many people want ND to lose. They beat us in a close game. The better they look, the better we look when we’re being compared to other 1-loss teams.
November 10th, 2018 at 10:01 AM ^
This was true earlier in the season, but they'd drop below us if they lost now.
November 10th, 2018 at 10:43 AM ^
All we need is for Notre Dame to be considered a good loss; a ND squad at 11-1 (or even 9-3) would still do the trick.
November 10th, 2018 at 9:47 AM ^
Odds are that NW will heave up a fur ball today vs. Iowa who is hard to beat at home. Then, NW has to hang on and win tough games against Minn and I’ll. Might actually give Minn and Ill a chance to be seen on a network other than BTN. Big Ten...West!
November 10th, 2018 at 10:10 AM ^
The whole day is full of Maybe There's a Chance games, especially in the ACC/SEC, but bedlam as well. I'm hoping a couple upset bids take hold and we get at least a handful of good endings.
November 10th, 2018 at 10:22 AM ^
November 10th, 2018 at 10:18 AM ^
November 10th, 2018 at 10:33 AM ^
The TV schedulers got it backwards. Michigan/Rutgers and Iowa/Northwestern should be at noon. MSU/OSU and Penn State/Wisconsin should be at 3:30
+1 Insightful.
November 10th, 2018 at 11:35 AM ^
Bedlam was played in October last season.
November 10th, 2018 at 11:16 AM ^
Hoping for the Ypsi Eagles to get bowl eligible today. Suck it chips.
November 10th, 2018 at 11:59 AM ^
Kick the Dang BALL ALREADY!!
