College football is finally back my friends!
This year it seems to have snuck up on us. The actual college football season was overshadowed a little bit by the sport’s own off-field scandals, the NFL lockout, as well as most of us enjoying our summer; but, as scheduled, the college football season continues on.

The college football bowl season is finally upon us, bringing even more exciting college football games as December turns into Christmas, and then Christmas turns into 2011.
As you probably know, Oregon and Auburn will be playing for the National Championship. Both teams are very deserving and their offenses should give us a one hell of a great game.
Picking marquee match-ups during bowl week is an impossible task. Every game could be considered a marquee match, though the bigger bowls tend to be more watched. My advice to you is to watch as many as games as possible. You’re getting to see some very well played football games (for the most part) with the best teams in the country.

What an eventful last week it was for college football fans. Boise State fell. Alabama lost a a huge lead to Auburn and Oregon came back from an early deficit to Arizona. Texas finished the season with a record under .500 for the first time since God knows when. LSU fell to Arkansas. I could go on and on.
This week, the schedule is obviously much lighter than last week, but we still have some good, meaningful games to watch.

Week 13 of the college football season, also known as Thanksgiving week, is here. With each passing week the BCS and bowl game picture becomes clearer as the conference standings take shape and conference title games loom on the horizon.

Of course, most of the nation will not care who captures the Old Oaken Bucket. They will, however, care who wins the Alabama-Auburn matchup, the LSU-Arkansas game, Oklahoma-Oklahoma State, and many other important games with national ramifications. Check out this week’s TV schedule to find out which college football games you need to be watching starting on Thanksgiving and going through Saturday, November 27th.

It’s a a new week and a new month for college football. The season is drawing to a conclusion, but that only makes each and every game more and more competitive and fun to watch.
This week we have seemingly unlikely top 25 matchups in Baylor-Oklahoma State, Arkansas-South Carolina, and Stanford-Arizona. The highlight, however, is #3 TCU versus #5 Utah. For one team, BCS hopes remain alive; for the loser, however, dreams are dashed. The same is true for the top 10 battle between LSU and Alabama.
