PrintAnother Fall Saturday afternoon is upon us, and another UCLA Football game is just a few hours away. We will have our usual open thread for the Bruins game coming up at 4:15 PDT. Until then, here is an open thread to get everybody through the early afternoon games, as well as chat about some of the later games - whether it be the Bruins/Sun Devils, or the "Game of the Century" kicking off in Tuscaloosa later tonight. There are a couple of early games wrapping up right now, such as the Michigan/Iowa battle, or the blowout of Mike Leach's old team in Austin. Here are today's Pac-12 games and some of the major national games.
12:30pm PDT:
- Stanford @ Oregon State (ABC/ESPN3)
- Purdue @ Wisconsin (ESPN3/ABC/ESPN2)
- Northwestern @ Nebraska (Big Ten Network)
- Texas A&M @ Oklahoma (ESPN3/ABC/ESPN)
- Army @ Air Force (CBS)
- Washington State @ Cal (3:30pm, Comcast/Fox Sports)
- Utah @ Arizona (4pm, Fox College Sports)
- Mizzu @ Baylor (4pm, Comcast/Fox Sports)
- USC @ Arkansas (4:15pm, ESPN)
A trio of games on national TV at 5pm PDT - with LSU/Alabama leading the way.
- LSU @ Alabama (CBS)
- Kansas State @ Oklahoma State (ABC)
- Notre Dame @ Wake Forest (ESPN2)
Oregon @ Washington gets the late night Pac-12 spot for the week (7:30pm, Comcast/Fox Sports), with the Ducks looking to win the final game at Husky Stadium before the venue closes for renovations. Boise State also plays UNLV (CBS College Sports) for those in the mood for witnessing a massacre.

UVa killing Maryland
Lot of early struggles for Edsall. Meanwhile, OU’s loss against Texas Tech is looking pretty bad.
UVa about to become bowl eligible
With Duke coming up next week before the regular season-ending games with FSU and Virginia Tech, the Hoos’ are looking at a 7-5 season. Sad to say that such a record for UCLA would be considered a near-triumph at this point in time.

Mike Londons seems to have done a decent job
What was the final score of Michigan game?
by Nestor on Nov 5, 2011 1:25 PM PDT via mobile up reply actions
24-16 I believe.
Robinson isn’t a top-flight QB, just the best athlete in the Big-10.
They couldn’t score from inside the 5 with 4 plays. Two really bad passes, one sure thing TD drop.

The Michigan backup
He didn’t look all that great either … At least when I was watching the game.

Owusu out on a hard hit against OSU
Didn’t look like a dirty hit but I wonder if there will be questions about why Owusu was in at all. I know the hit at $C didn’t officially result in a concussion, but with Owusu’s history…I cringe to think about what damage there may be.
It wasn't as dirty as the other hits he's taken.
But it was obviously a personal foul, the guy did launch his shoulder with zero intent to tackle.
He was moving though, he’ll be alright.

Hope he is ok
Meanwhile the guy whose pic is in this post … His team up 7-3 in Lincoln. Hmm.

Nebraska was about due to come back to reality.
From what I’ve seen of them, not a top 10 type of team.

agreed
Nebraska may come back to win, but are not the #10 team

OSU is driving on stanford
Beavs on stanford 3 yardline. Current score is 17-7 stanford up
as a matter of fact
that makes 4 points that OSU has missed out on thanks to blocked kicks
Meh
I am not all that upset about losing Riley any more. He would have been like Donahue IMO at UCLA. Good but never great.
I am excited to get a new coach who hopefully will be a Ben Howland of football.
I never understood OSUs fascination with Riley and vice-versa
He is good, but I think they are both stuck in a rut. It is like a marriage in cruise control, but I guess they are happy together.
I think he is a good coach
And he would be decent at UCLA but I am not dying for him. It was his loss that he passed on UCLA not ours.
Not always
I have seen plenty of Riley team with bad fundamentals. You can revisit all of his games against Dorrell’s teams.
My feelings as well
He missed an opportunity. When he went back to the Beavs after the fiasco with the Chargers, my thoughts then were “They’ll be good, not great and he will never leave”.
Kind of an off topic thought.
But the BIg-10 has to change the names of their divisions. It is comical to hear broadcasters say that someone is leading the Leaders division.

In an open thread, nothing is off topic!
Legends division? really? sounds trashy to me too.
I just can't see how anyone approved those names.
Who was sitting in a meeting and backed up that suggestion?
“How about we call one division Leaders and the other Legends?”“Great idea, no one will hesitate to take us seriously.”

Who indeed
The people making those decisions usually live in ivory towers and are out of touch with the average football fan.

I usually get really sick of whatever game ESPN spends all week pimping
but I can’t lie. I’m really, really pumped for tonight’s Bama-LSU game.
Two roads diverged in a wood and I – I tweeted my followers to ask which I should take
Ref takes a hit by an OSU player
The side judge to be exact. Looks to be in pain.
The SPTRs are out in full force in Corvallis
Did anyone see the non-call of a safety on OSU on their 1st drive of the game? And now they said the stanford punt return man called for a fair catch when he clearly intended to run it back…. sheesh.
SPTRs Looming Large ...
There was no hold there. OSU getting is getting the short end at home, yet still keeping it close.
These Pac-12 refs look a lot like Pac-12 refs

Mannion leveled
By a guy whose hobbies list includes steer wrestling(Per ESPN). Beavs turn it over – momentum is starting to veer stanfords way with a turnover
Afternoon Guys!
Had to get some groceries and make a beer run. Got the day off to a good start as Iowa held off Michigan 24-16 at Kinnick. Hoping we can do the same tonight. Watching Northwestern and Nebby right now. Not surprised at all how they’re giving the Huskers fits.
Los Angeles Rams and the UCLA Bruins!!!!!

What channel is the game On?
I can’t find it listed in LA.
TD Nortwestern
Now up 28-18 on Nebby – in Lincoln. And only a little over a minute left for the Huskers.
Los Angeles Rams and the UCLA Bruins!!!!!

Why does UW
play most of their home games at night? I would think it would make it colder than a well digger’s *ss around the water. Is that strictly TV doing the scheduling?
