Using [this source](http://espn.go.com/college-football/schedule) and stripping out the extraneous data, I have built this summary below. Not wishing to be hyper-selective and building a poll of some subset, I thought it might be fun to identify the must-see games of this important week. Which ones are you planning to watch on TV? Do you plan to be there for any of them? ```auto 2013 NCAA Division I-A Football Schedule - Week 14 Group:FBS (Division I-A) Week: 14 Thursday, November 28 7:30 PM Ole Miss at Mississippi State 7:30 PM Texas Tech at Texas Friday, November 29 12:00 PM Iowa at Nebraska 12:00 PM Southern Methodist at Houston 12:00 PM East Carolina at Marshall 12:00 PM Toledo at Akron 1:00 PM Miami (OH) at Ball State 1:30 PM Bowling Green at Buffalo 2:00 PM Massachusetts at Ohio 2:00 PM Eastern Michigan at Central Michigan 2:00 PM Texas State at Troy 2:30 PM Arkansas at (15) LSU 3:00 PM Florida International at Florida Atlantic 3:30 PM (16) Fresno State at San Jose State 3:30 PM Miami (FL) at Pittsburgh 3:30 PM Washington State at Washington 7:00 PM Oregon State at (12) Oregon 8:00 PM South Florida at (17) UCF Saturday, November 30 TBA Minnesota at (11) Michigan State TBA Purdue at Indiana TBA (24) Duke at North Carolina 12:00 PM (2) Florida State at Florida 12:00 PM (3) Ohio State at Michigan 12:00 PM Rutgers at Connecticut 12:00 PM Temple at Memphis 12:00 PM Kansas State at Kansas 12:21 PM Wake Forest at Vanderbilt 12:30 PM Maryland at North Carolina State 1:00 PM Southern Miss at UAB 2:00 PM Air Force at Colorado State 2:00 PM Colorado at Utah 2:00 PM Wyoming at Utah State 2:00 PM South Alabama at Georgia State 2:30 PM North Texas at Tulsa 3:00 PM Tulane at Rice 3:00 PM Brigham Young at Nevada 3:30 PM (1) Alabama at (4) Auburn 3:30 PM Penn State at (14) Wisconsin 3:30 PM Georgia at Georgia Tech 3:30 PM Idaho at New Mexico State 3:30 PM Boston College at Syracuse 3:30 PM (9) Baylor at TCU 3:30 PM Northwestern at Illinois 3:30 PM Louisiana Tech at UTSA 3:30 PM Virginia Tech at Virginia 3:45 PM UTEP at Middle Tennessee 4:00 PM Arkansas State at Western Kentucky 4:00 PM Iowa State at West Virginia 7:00 PM (6) Clemson at (10) South Carolina 7:00 PM (25) Notre Dame at (8) Stanford 7:00 PM Tennessee at Kentucky 7:00 PM Louisiana-Monroe at (21) Louisiana-Lafayette 7:45 PM (19) Texas A&M at (5) Missouri 8:00 PM (22) UCLA at (23) USC 9:30 PM Arizona at (13) Arizona State 10:15 PM New Mexico at Boise State 10:30 PM San Diego State at UNLV 11:00 PM Army at Hawaii ========================================================= ``` ---

Thanksgiving will be set aside for Pro football so those games are out. Friday I’ll be watching Iowa/Nebraska and the Civil War. Saturday the only game I’m interested in is the Iron Bowl. Although I kinda want to see if Duke can actually get to the ACC championship game so I may watch that one as well if it’s televised. ---

The Egg Bowl is the last gasp for my Bullydogs this year. If they can pull off a win, they can salvage what has been a disappointing season, and play a bit of spoiler for Ole Miss. The Main Event of the weekend is, of course, the Iron Bowl. The Druidess, for some reason likely connected to her yankee-ness, seems to think there is some significance to Ohio State-Michigan, even though neither team plays in the SEC. ---

It’s going to take some DVRing and maybe even some back-and-forth between channels, but I’m planning on these: ```auto 2013 NCAA Division I-A Football Schedule - Week 14 Thursday, November 28 7:30 PM Ole Miss at Mississippi State Friday, November 29 2:30 PM Arkansas at (15) LSU Saturday, November 30 12:00 PM (3) Ohio State at Michigan 12:21 PM Wake Forest at Vanderbilt 3:30 PM (1) Alabama at (4) Auburn 3:30 PM (9) Baylor at TCU 7:00 PM (6) Clemson at (10) South Carolina 7:00 PM Tennessee at Kentucky 7:45 PM (19) Texas A&M at (5) Missouri ``` ---

I love all those interstate rivals. It’s late in the season so most of the excuses have vanished. Ohio State/Michigan is almost an interstate rivalry since they both recruit in each others territory. It will be interesting to see if UM can bring any pride to the game to make something of a season which has been far more disastrous than their record indicates. Alabama/Auburn is almost always good. I picked Missouri to lose so that holds a lot of interest. I’m wondering if FL/FSU could be a trap game for FSU. ---

> [@R.P.McMurphy](#): > > I’m wondering if FL/FSU could be a trap game for FSU. I have had that very thoight. I may try to catch some plays in the first quarter to see how Florida is doing, and if they show signs of life, I may jump from the OSU-UM game. If Muschamp has any love from his team, they may just rally for him, to keep him at the school. ---

> [@R.P.McMurphy](#): > > I’m wondering if FL/FSU could be a trap game for FSU. With the exception of it being intra-state, FSU/UF has all the elements of UM/OSU. Big rivalry, many of these guys went to high school together (or played each other), massively overlapped recruiting bases. I doubt FSU isn’t going to take this seriously. ---

I’ll watch tOSU V. UM one of my favorite games to watch all year. I have a ticket to the Mizzou/A&M game but need to find a way to get out of my wife’s family Thanksgiving. If I go I will be tailgating but trying to watch as much of the Iron Bowl as possible.
