It has been a great college football season.  Each week has provided exciting games and a few shockers.  Here's what to see this week (we'll go with the AP rankings):

MUST WATCH:
(11) Missouri at (6) Oklahoma - The Tigers rolled last week.  Can they roll through Boomer Sooner?  It's worth the watch.

SOMETHING TO PROVE:
UCF at (5) USF - UCF has been in search of relevancy for years.  This is a shot and George O'Leary can coach them up.  It is a young rivalry, I'll stick with the Bulls.  After the FAU scare, they'll be chomping at the bit.

Washington at (14) Arizona State - Ty's charges have come close to upsets all season.  Dennis Erickson better have his crew ready.  Playing at home, go with ASU. 

Louisville at (15) Cincinnati - The Bearcats need to keep it up in the Big East.  The Cards need to salvage the season.  It could be a fun watch.  Unless U of L has solved its issues on defense, it can only hope to make the game interesting.

ONLY BECAUSE THEY'RE RANKED:
(1) LSU at (17) Kentucky - Sorry 'Cats fans, this one could get ugly early and often.  The Tigers are the best thing going this year.  Doesn't mean there can't be an upset, but if UK could not solve South Carolina's defense, I feel for them with LSU.  After the close call with the Gators, the Bengal Tigers should be wide awake for this one.

Oregon State at (2) Cal - The Bears are strong.  Lots of team speed.  Expect Cal to lick the Beavers. 

There are plenty of other ranked games, but why waste the time.  Like last week with Stanford at USC.

Ohio State vs Kent is not a game worth mentioning, unless of course you are a Buckeye fan. Which is why I added the USC-Stanford comment, because I am a moron enough to miss one.

The game I missed most of all, for Big 10 fans, is Purdue-Michigan. The Wolverines have something to prove every week and they are crushing Purdue in the first half.
