College Football: 2008 Games to Watch

A less than AMAZING week, Bama heads to LSU and Cal heads to USC. Both should be good games, but there aren't any reasons to set your schedule around them unless it has some impact on you because you attended on of those schools.

WEEK 12
Saturday, November 15
For the second straight week we'll see tough inter-conference match-ups but nothing to focus on too deftly as with past weeks. Rutgers comes to South Florida, Georgia visits Auburn, and Ohio State looks for revenge against the Illini of Illinois.

WEEK 13
Saturday, November 22
Texas Tech heads to Norman to play Oklahoma. That's it. That's about all I got. Don't ask for a silly hat, just watch College Gameday.

WEEK 14 RIVALRY WEEK Pt. 1
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28
Rivalry Week is up on us. Chances are if you went to college, or at the very lease closely follow a college football team than the biggest game of their season is on the ballot this week. They all have trophies and fun names. There are only a few games that matter to all of us though:

West Virginia at Pittsburgh. The Backyard Brawl means something to many of us now. Not just for the illiterates anymore. Should determine the Big East.

Notre Dame at USC. Though USC should run away with this one, as they have for the majority of the last few years, this really is one of the top rivalries in college football. Who can forget Danny Redding punching a hole in the Sigma Pi wall during parents weekend after the Trojans (Leinart and Bush) cheated this game away from the Irish a few years ago. God knows I never will.

Kansas at Missouri. The Border War (Showdown in Politically Correct Times) goes back to 1891 and they pass along an Indian War Drum. One of the better histories of rivalries. I say give 'em both back to the Indians but, this game will be a good one.

WEEK 15
Saturday, December 6
The last week of College Football sans Championships USC heads to UCLA, South Florida and West Viriginia face off in what will most likely not matter, but as of right now looks like a big match-up. But most importantly the Arizona Arizona State game. Since both teams are never good at the same time it doesnt' have the same draw as Michigan vs Ohio State but is Top five in bitterness. There have been more than a few fights in this game and both ASU and UA fans care more about this game than any other. Plus it's the oldest traveling Rivalry Trophy in existence.

So there you go. Mark your calendars and get ready for a great NCAA Football season, 11 days till the first Satuday.
