I'm going to be 100% useless this Saturday. I love this slate of games. A game or two should break out in that 11 am slot (Miss at Memphis or WVU at BU), the 2:30 slate is just awesome, and we should be able to catch some decent glimpses of UF-LSU during TCU halftime and the end of SC-ND and PSU-tOSU afterwards. Then ASU at our old pals in Utah.

Bump. Hasn't been much chatter 'round here about other games this week. 
 
Not too excited about Auburn at Kentucky, but tonight's #pac12afterdark is going to be great (UCLA @ Stanford). 

 

[TCURiggs]

I'm with you, buddy. Excited about a lot of games, including tonight's slate. Take it all in folks. It's halfway over.

 

[RollToad]

After waiting what felt like 10 years, its half over in what feels like a week.

[Lone Frog]

Am traveling to visit the in-laws this weekend. I anticipate exhausting my data plan.

 

[FrogSole]

I never watch Baylor unless its the Frogs playing them, but I may tune in, to their game, and see how they play versus a fairly solid D.

Son of a witch.

Never fails

 

[Reptilian]

Wish we were the 11 am slot. But probably a good thing as I would get carpal tunnel flipping around on the evening games.

Unfortunately, WVU's defense isn't the same without Joseph. Hope they play well, though.

This may be the only game Baylor doesn't score 50+ this year.

 

[West Coast Johnny]

For me the most interesting games this week are:
-OU @ K-state.  I'm interested to see if last weeks OU / Texas game was a fluke or if OU really sucksass again.
-Ole Miss @ Memphis - I know... Ole Miss has the better athletes and an SEC defense... yada-yada-yada.  I think Gary gives Justin his Peach Bowl scouting notes and Memphis beats Ole Piss outright.

Pretty good Thursday/Friday games with UCLA-Stanford and Boise-Utah State.

Stanford is looking like the Pac 12 North favorite and has owned UCLA in recent years, giving UCLA one of it's toughest losses in the Mora years last year in Pasadena.

We'll see is anything changes tonight.

This is one of the best Saturday slates of the season...Sparty at the Big House is the most interesting non-Big 12 gsme to me.

USC-Notre Dame has some of intrigue given what's gone on at USC this week.

Interested to see that Florida-LSU game in part cuz I want to see what either QB can do in that game.

Even the late Pac12 games could be good.

curious to see if Peterson's huskies can give Oregon another loss.

 

[Moose Stuff]

Unfortunately, WVU's defense isn't the same without Joseph. Hope they play well, though.

I think Baylor hammers them. Think WV got overhyped. Scores from the last few weeks suggest they are an average team and losing Joseph is a huge blow.

I'm more interested in the OU vs KSU game to see if KSU is good more so than if OU is bad.

 

[jake102]

Yep. Only team who has a chance to stop Baylor is TCU because we can score with them and get home field.
 
Oky State maybe has a 10% shot.

 

[LSU Game Attendee]

I imagine if Joseph was roaming the secondary, most of those insufferable prima-donna therapists would hold their trash talk to a minimum.  Joseph was a hammer unlike few I've ever seen- seemed good for a "Gator-level" hit almost weekly.  His body control to apply devastating hits without drawing targeting voilations made his work all the more remarkable.  Alas

I agree with you. Unless something unforeseen happens (i.e. - injury to key players, another rape scandal involving half the team), Baylor should be undefeated when we meet up. Sure hope we are too

Baylor sucks on the road just as much as TCU
 
Here's my best guess
 
@TCU- We should get better on defense and never Baylor bad. Ever. 50%
@KSU- 10%- Unrealistic. Never should have been close with us. Probably win by 14+
OU- At home. 1%
@OSU-10%
Texas- 1%
