Miami-Va tech isn't as interesting as it looked like it was going to be but it is nice to see this game climbing its way back to the 00s days. Should be a good game with a rowdy crowd.
Troy is a pretty legit and USA has played pretty well all year. This will be a good one.
Boise State is good but I'll be asleep by half.

Damn didn't know they had a late ESPN game tonight. I'll tune in

If Chicago wasn't a hot mess, I would tune into that game. Only reason it might be a game is because GB and Rogers have been flat on offense.

I'm turning off the late game at halftime.

BYU-Boise will be a good one.
Maybe Boise last hurdle to undefeated season and potential playoff catastrophe.

I'll be there. We've beat Miss. State and a ranked San Diego St. team but still haven't won a conference game.
I figured it would be the other way around before the season started.
We get to play Presbyterian now on the Nov.19th instead of LSU. How exciting!

Big game for Va Tech, still have a chance to get to Orlando, Richt needs to win as well being that it may be 3 straight L's to ACC opponents

CFB just seems so much better than the NFL lately. I love having these matchups to watch during the week. Tomorrow even has Oregon @ Cal which should be entertaining to watch as well.

This game scares me. I remember all those good Troy teams beating people at home on weeknights several years back. Troy has looked good so far, but for some reason y'all scare me. Scheduling is odd on this one too. Short week coming into a road game, then a bye week after this and Troy isn't playing again until Nov 5th. Probably a good time for it but I would rather play again next weekend then have the bye. Makes for a long layoff.

USF @ Temple could be good too
I have said it before but CFB is just better set up for the fan. Assuming you have a regular TV packets or even Sling/ruko/stream, CFB saturdays are way better.
If you look at this weekend ,outside of Bama-Aggie, there isn't a bunch of great games; however, there are a bunch of little games that will be interesting. From 11-past midnight you can flip from 30 games and almost assured to get a few that will be fun.
TCU-West va, NC State- Louisville, Texas-K-state, Navy-Memphis, Utah-UCLA, Auburn-Arkansas, LSU-Ole Miss, Iowa-Wisconsin, plus several others
Quantity creates quality in college. So many different styles that create odd match ups.

Hopefully being at home, on TV and a rivalry game will get the Jags pumped up.
I'm with you about the Presbyterian game....but it's better than three straight off weeks or whatever they had.

In fairness, the Bears are as irrelevant as you can get in the NFL. Even Cleveland has notoriety because they're awful every season.
The Bears are a perennial 5-9 win team. Not good enough to win anything of note, but not bad enough to really rebuild. Perpetual mediocrity is the calling card of most professional sports franchises, especially in the NFL, which has slowly but surely done everything in their power to drag the good and bad teams into the middle so everyone's the same and it's boring.

on a short week vs a struggling Green Bay. It is going to be a sloppy and boring game between two teams that are all but out of the division race already.
NFL Thursday night games almost always suck.

Boise BYU might be the best game of the night of them all, including the NFL game.

Tonight:
NLCS > NHL > CFB > Preseason NBA > NFL
I imagine the NFL ratings will only get worse with the NHL and NBA seasons starting up.
