College Football Week 2 Open Thread

Not sure we’ll make it to two open threads today considering a 2:30 game, but we’ll see.

Baylor kicks off at 2:30 today, giving a clear delineation between the morning and evening games. Aside from that game, it’s not a great or even good week of CFB, but here’s what I’ll be watching:

  • 11:00 — UCF @ Michigan? This is a tough time slot. Maybe PV A&M at Texas A&M.
  • 2:30 — SMU @ Baylor, obviously. Will also pay attention to Tulsa @ Ohio State to see Monty.
  • 6:00 — Arkansas @ TCU with an eye on UTEP @ Texas.
  • 7:00 — Tennessee vs. Virginia Tech (Bristol Motor Speedway)
  • 9:00 — Texas Tech @ Arizona State.

Here’s the full schedule courtesy of our friends at the mothership (NOTE: I do not necessarily agree with the categories created here.  I'm just using the list.):
