Games to Watch: Week 10

We're already past Halloween, and in the double digit weeks now.

Saturday
12:00 PM
Virginia Tech at Boston College, ABC/ESPN2.  This matchup has not always gone well for the Hokies.  Even last year, when it was needed to keep hopes of bowl eligibility alive, it came down to overtime in a sloppy game.  After losing to Duke last week, no one knows what to expect from VT for the rest of the season.

3:30 PM
Georgia vs. Florida, CBS.  The battle for second place in the SEC East.  The winner of this game can get back in contention if Missouri slips again.

Michigan at Michigan State, ABC.  An in-state rivalry, and a key game in conference play.   I didn't realize how good Michigan State has been this year, but they've been quietly coasting at 7-1, while being undefeated in conference play.

Clemson at Virginia, ESPN.  I'm a little surprised this one got on ESPN.  UVA's been going down the toilet all season.  This game doesn't mean much in the overall scheme of things, although if UVA pulls off an upset, it would be noticed.


7:00 PM
Tennessee at Missouri, ESPN.  Hopefully Missouri can bounce back from that overtime loss (laces out, dude!).  If not, then they might lose control of the SEC East.

8 PM
Miami at Florida State, ABC.  This is the game.  Probably for the first time since Miami joined the ACC, this game is relevant.  These are the two teams that some ACC officials want to play in the championship game every year, which is why they are in opposite divisions.  Both are undefeated, but this game probably has bigger implications for a national title than a conference title.
