Willyville Guy Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Probably my own biases, but UCLA's schedule does not strike me as more difficult than the schedules for Michigan, ND, and LSU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willyville Guy Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 (edited) Michigan has three rivalry games on the road (ND, MSU, OSU), and two doozies at home (PSU, Wisky). That's a handful if I've ever seen one. Edited June 15, 2018 by Willyville Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire run has been a dream come true ever since Tress said, “I can assure you that you will be proud of your young people in the classroom, in the community, and most especially in 310 days in Ann Arbor, Michigan.” It's gotta end sooner or later.

Ohio State plays TCU at Jerry World on Sat night in week 3. I think Clemson goes to A&M week 2. Michigan plays ND week 1. Need to look up the rest. Texas plays usc again at some point.

Week 1: Auburn Vs. Washington. This is a very intriguing game. Big on a national level for both teams. Jarrett Stidham Vs. Jake Browning. Game is in Atlanta. Louisiana State Vs. Miami. Are the Hurricanes for real? Can the Fighting Tigers still win big games like this? We'll see. Game is in Arlington/Jerry World. Notre Dame Vs. Michigan. The old rivalry continued. Huge game for both teams. That is unless if Brian Kelly sees this as just a "regional rivalry". Florida State Vs. Virginia Tech. Big early conference game. Tennessee Vs. West Virginia. Big game for both teams. They may not be preseason Top 25, but this game could be important in the long run. Especially if the Mountaineers can win in Knoxville. Week 2: Stanford Vs. USC. Another big early conference game. Texas A&M Vs. Clemson. May not be as big a game on a national level. However, it is a road game for the Tigers in a very raucous environment. Arizona State Vs. Michigan State. Spartans travel to the desert in a late night game. Never an easy trip. Week 3: Auburn Vs. Louisiana State. Yet another big conference game. Texas Christian Vs. Ohio State. On paper the Buckeyes should not have a difficult time in this game. It is in Fort Worth, and the Horned Frogs will be up for this. So we shall see.

row_33 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Thanks Mark Vader, good to see a few good games each week early on. A few years we’ve had only one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're welcome, and I agree with you. There are a few exciting games to see early this season. The first 2-3 weeks is my favorite time of the college football season. I love seeing the match-ups of teams that almost never play against each other. Especially when they are strong teams, who aren't afraid to take on another powerhouse and prove that they should be National Championship contenders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are quite a few good teams in that conference and some of them are likely to beat each other up and affect the rankings. As for conferences like the Pac 12, ACC, and the Big 12? Please. These conferences are weak in comparison to the SEC, wouldn't you say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to see some of the teams this year before I know how good the conferences will be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
