Vols and who else next weekend?

[VFL-82-JP]

In addition to the Vols, what games are you watching next weekend?

I think I'm gonna try to catch all or part of 9 different games:

Thursday:
-- the first hour of #21 UCF vs UConn (6cst, espnu), just because it's the first game of the season and I miss football so much
-- Northwestern-Purdue (7cst, espn), out of nostalgia for us beating NW in that bowl, and in memory of when Drew Brees put Purdue on the map

Friday:
-- Army-Duke (6cst, espnu), my second-favorite team vs David Cutcliffe

Saturday:
-- flip between Ole Miss vs Texas Tech (11cst, espn) and Ohio State - Oregon State (11cst, abc), to see which of the Rebels and Buckeyes looks more harried
-- Vols-Mountaineers (2:30cst, cbs), of course!
-- Vandy vs MTSU (6:30cst, secn) for chuckles, go Blue Raiders!

Sunday:
-- LSU-Miami (6:30cst, abc), because it's college football!

Monday:
-- Va Tech vs FSU (7cst, espn) because ditto!


How about you? Other than Vols-Mountaineers, anything interesting to you this first weekend?


p.s. sorry if I didn't get your second-favorite game in the poll, I ran out of spots to use. Didn't even have room for an "Other" choice, after getting all the Power 5 vs Power 5 matches listed.

LOL... BYU I guess since that will be UT's "big" OOC opponent next year. After dealing with Oregon, OU, VT, WVU... they get BYU next fall and MSU from the West. Comparatively the easiest schedule UT's had in a while.

Auburn vs Washington because we play Auburn and want to see what could possible have been our coach. Slight chance, but we might have at least got him to the table.

Sorry to tell you this but the first games of the season are this Saturday night

Considered, and dismissed.

Even as badly as I miss college football, there is not a single compelling thing there.

In my world, college football starts a week from today. [and it REALLY starts when lads in orange take the field a week from Saturday!]

New Mexico State and Wyoming will be a good matchup and worh watching

Cool, brother, I'm happy you find something there you want to see. Great to be back in a world with college football, that's all.

Why are you so defensive? All I did was say there is a good matchup out there

Huh? I just wished you happy viewing. I'm not being defensive, at all. What did you read into my response?

Unfortunately the #2 game is the one that happens to come on at the same time as UT: Auburn vs Washington. That should be a very interesting game, but alas, my attention will be on the Vols.

Agreed. That would be a fun game to see. But no competition when put against our Vols.

 

[KBVol]

Auburn v Washington is the game I want to watch the most. Then Michigan-ND, followed by LSU-Miami

Will you record the Auburn-Washington game, KB, then go back and watch it later in the weekend?

 

[chargervol]

Depends.
If UT wins, I'll be content watching DVR of...
Tennessee winning, again

I like how you think, Mister.

*salute*

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Slippery Rock vs Kentucky State!

 

[bpalmer28]

I want to see if Fuente and Herman can take the next step. Possibly the next Harbaugh and Meyer types on the field. Obviously we’ve got the next Saban

 

[eakes]

Five TVs, five games possible at one time. Watch'em all.

 

[aaronvol]

The percentages are fuzzy math.

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

West Virginia math? @Freak

Great post JP.

Go Blue Raiders!

Go Black Knights (even though I like Cut a lot).

Go Canes!

Go Vols!!!!

I will watch some of the other if they are close, but I'm not a fan of Michigan or Norte Dame I watch some to see what they have.

I do have some interest in the Alabama game just to see how the new DC is working out. Ha ha.

Need tailgate tv's...I'll be in the stadium with our Vols.

It is but you just hide and watch MSU will be a to ten team by the time we play them lol...

 

[bolvols]

I think Auburn and LSU both lose

 

[jakez4ut]

As for other games... I'm gonna set up the TV at the tailgate, and wing it.
