Rank the four big CFB games this weekend.

#14 Stanford at #6 USC - Could determine the PAC 12
#13 Auburn at #3 Clemson - Clemson struggled to win last year. Auburn supposedly is improved, Clemson is rebuilding or reloading.
#5 Oklahoma at #2 Ohio State - Two top 5 teams is either exciting or a dud. The loser must wins out in order to make the playoffs.
#15 Georgia at #24 Notre Dame - Both are mediocre. But still ranked and could cause some noise if they get on a roll.
Thoughts?

The one up top means more although both of those teams are overrated.
In terms of order I want to watch, I'd go
1. #5 Oklahoma at #2 Ohio State
2. #13 Auburn at #3 Clemson
3. #14 Stanford at #6 USC
4. #15 Georgia at #24 Notre Dame

Don't care about UGA/ND at all
Stanford/USC is going to be fun to watch
I have no clue whether Auburn or Clemson are as good as advertised
OU/OSU is the game of the week

It sucks they didn't plop one or two of those at 3:30 eastern.

OK v OSU is the biggest, especially for Oklahoma
USC Stanford, would be big for Stanford as they get Washington at home
Clemson Auburn
Georgia ND- who cares? Both will finish with at least 4 losses

For me personally:
1. Auburn/Clemson---One is SEC, the other still feels like SEC
2. UGA/ND----Like UGA/Athens, and I am Catholic and my old man and his old man always talked about ND being a giant. Unique matchup of a southern team vs ND
3. Ohio State/Oklahoma---Biggest matchup, just dont have as much invested in the teams
4. Stanford/USC-------No real interest in two west coast teams playing each other

Just like they did in 12? I mean everyone had them losing to OU, then losing to Miami, then to Stanford, then to SC.
If they get through this one, they are possibly on a roll. Notre Dame hate is early this year.

Yeah. The schedule makers/TV networks have gone full retard these first two weeks.

First time Georgia has played north of the mason dixon line since the 1960s. How is that even possible? That's some boring scheduling.

I agree. They're all playing at close to the same time.

How would you even know if Stanford was overrated.
We've played 1 week and their only game they whipped up on pathetic Rice.
Not really empirical evidence to make that statement...beyond, muh historical bias.
On the other hand...yeah USC doesn't look good (but Western Michigan is no slouch as we saw last year.)

because there aren't any teams north of the line or west of texas that are worth a damn.

2 Ohio State Oklahoma
3 Stanford USC
4 Georgia Notre Dame

OU/tOSU: Two veteran Heisman contender QBs. Best offensive line in the country (OU) vs the best defensive line in the country (tOSU)
AU/Clemson: Interested in seeing what Stidham & their offense can do against Clemsons defense.
STAN/USC: Interested in seeing whether or not USC's defense is worth anything. Especially against a Stanford offense thats known for overpowering it's oppenant.
UGA/ND: Purely because it's going to look beautiful to the eye. Also, UGA hasn't played ND since the Walker era.

Nah man.
Seattle vs GB - Possible NFC Championship preview
Kansas City vs NE - Another potential playoff preview, one of the top defenses vs one of the top offenses
New Orleans vs Minnesota - AP's return to Minnesota
Oakland vs Tennessee - Good match up. Raiders hype maybe real. Tennessee should be improved.

Georgia's OOC teams since 2000(not countin Georgia Tech)
2001-Houston
200--Clemson
2003-@Clemson
2005-Boise State
2006-Colorado
2007-Oklahoma State
2008-@Arizona State

2011-Boise State(Atlanta)
2013-@Clemson
2014-Clemson
2016-North Carolina(Atlanta)
I'm sorry Georgia couldn't schedule a game against Syracuse just so they could play a game north of an arbitrary line. By the way, they did have a home and him scheduled with Ohio State until Ohio State backed out.

I believe this was the only correct answer.
