Week 11 Open Thread

Week 10 was full of elite matchups, but the results left lots of room for debate at the top of the CFP rankings. Georgia and Utah improved their resumes with big wins, but Miami dropped their first game of the year and Kentucky took a loss on the road. Will Week 11 give us any more clarity as we near the end of the regular season?

Friday Evening – UCLA is still undefeated, somehow, and welcomes Illinois to the Rose Bowl on Friday night. #14 Houston is also in action against a rapidly deteriorating Colorado.

Saturday Early – Miami gets an early chance to get back into the win column, but it won’t be easy against 7-2 Duke. #13 Wake Forest is somehow 8-1 in the ACC and they play fellow conference contender SMU in Dallas. The bloom is off the Ohio St rose this year, but their game with Northwestern looks like it could be good on paper.

Saturday Midday – In addition to the Dawgs, new #1 Georgia hosts #22 Missouri. Fresh off beating Miami, Notre Dame will play host to Boston College. USC goes east to play Indiana in a game that could put a much better gloss on their season. This window also includes Tennessee-Texas A&M, Michigan-Oregon, and Baylor-BYU.

Saturday Evening – After beating their arch-rival in a high-stakes game, #2 Utah has to travel to Tucson to play a 7-2 Arizona team. The #6 ranking next to Texas looks good, but at 7-2, they can ill afford any more losses, and @LSU won’t be a pushover. Texas Tech lacks great wins, but at 8-1, they’re worth monitoring and play away to Oklahoma St.
