College Football TV Schedule Week 9: What Games Have Big BCS Implications?
Welcome back to another week of college football on your television!
Last week, we saw some incredible games as, Michigan State won on a Hail Mary play, Oklahoma had to wait out a weather delay to get upset by Texas Tech and Oklahoma State and Clemson just destroyed the teams placed in front of them.
This week, which teams will provide us with those memorable games that have us talking about them that day or when we go to work on Monday?
Who knows, but you can see what time games are on this week, what channel and a fact or two about said game, so you can sound smart when you're watching them.
As always, check your local listings and please enjoy all adult beverages and fried/greasy food consumption in a responsible manner.
