The most boringest college football weekend in the history of ever
No two ranked teams are playing each other this weekend. There aren't even that many "ranked team plays a decent team" matchups. I double-checked out of disbelief.
Aside from being a homer cackling with glee as Michigan devours UCF, how many of these look even remotely interesting?
#1 Alabama vs. Western Kentucky
#2 Clemson vs. Troy
#3 Florida State vs. Charleston Southern (part of it, anyway)
#4 Ohio State vs. Tulsa
#5 Michigan vs. UCF
#6 Houston vs. Lamar
#7 Stanford (bye)
#8 Washington vs. Idaho
#9 Georgia vs. Nicholls
#10 Wisconsin vs. Akron
#11 Texas vs. UTEP
#12 Michigan State (bye)
#13 Louisville vs. Syracuse
#14 Oklahoma vs. Louisiana Monroe
#15 TCU vs. Arkansas
#16 Iowa vs. Iowa State
#17 Tennessee vs. Virginia Tech
#18 Notre Dame vs. Nevada
#19 Ole Miss vs. Wofford
#20 Texas A&M vs. Prairie View A&M
#21 LSU vs. Jacksonville State
#22 Oklahoma State vs. Central Michigan
#23 Baylor vs. SMU
#24 Oregon vs. Virginia
#25 Miami vs. Florida Atlantic
The B1G slate isn't much better with unranked conference teams facing such powerhouses as Florida International, Wyoming, Howard, Indiana State and Illinois State.
I'm glad football's back, but that kind of implies football is back, not cupcake-eating contest. On the upside, at least Michigan's easy OOC schedule is now a relative thing.

I'm a bit less excited about the TCU/Arkansas game after Arkansas barely got by LA Tech last week.
After Bielema ran his mouth last year only to lose to Toledo, I was rooting harder than most for a LA Tech upset.
