In 2 weeks? No chance. I would think Auburn Alabama would get that game. THen you are probably right.

Texas beats both of them next year after this godawful rebuilding season after the young inexperienced players grow up.

Of course gameday will be there. It is a hugh game and both teams are real good. @John Doe - I think they are asking the guy who turns the orange light on in the UT tower to take next year off and the rest of this year as well. I heard Florida Atlantic is favored!

Excellent question. I think they may do two game days due to the holiday but if we are talking about Saturday specifically, the options are few. The options: The Holy War - Utah vs BYU has lost its usual luster but its a big time rivalry that has been screaming for a game day the last few years. It won't happen this year due to BYU tanking and Utah falling out of contention for a BCS bowl. The only story line I could see for this is BYU needing a win over Utah to become bowl eligible in the last year of BYU vs Utah conference play (don't worry they have each other scheduled in none conference to continue the war in the future). Arkansas vs LSU- Two teams that will probably be ranked higher than Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. Since nothing is at stake besides which of the good SEC affiliated bowls they will go to this game is a lame duck. The only thing that could get ESPN's attention is its two ranked SEC teams which will bring ratings in the south more so than two teams from Oklahoma. Northwestern vs Wisconsin - Wisconsin could have a BCS birth on the line in this game which is interesting but its still a ratings bust with Northwestern. Michigan State vs Penn State - Yet again a game with a BCS birth on the line for a team but in this case two teams with large viewing bases are playing each other. A lot of people would tune in to see if Michigan State could go to a Rose Bowl and a lot of people will tune in for Penn State no matter what. Oklahoma vs Oklahoma State- A game with likely Big 12 Title game implications but two things could derail this being the game of the week. IF a very big IF Texas A&M upsets Nebraska next weekend this match up will no longer have the cut and dry who ever wins go to the title game conitation which is what College gameday loves. Why you may ask because if Oklahoma wins the game they may not go to the Big 12 title game due to Texas A&M maybe having a higher BCS ranking. A few other things need to happen for that scenario to happen but it could. Georgia vs Georgia Tech - A big rivalry with the winner if things fall into place next weekend being bowl eligible. Conclusion: I think Oklahoma vs Oklahoma State is the likely location but its a close race due to other games having an edge in TV ratings. It comes down to whether ESPN wants to be at the place with the highest implications on College football or at the place that will draw the highest TV ratings (flip a coin here).
