Afternoon Games Open Thread

Tennessee appears to have already stopped Alabama on offense and then drove the field to score a TD. 

Tennessee looks legit.  Alabama will settle in once the emotion kind of wears off on Rocky Top.  Looks to be a really good game.

Too bad they are going to head to head with MSU/Wisconsin.  Going to be a ratings battle.

In other big news, the #2 Grand Valley State Lakers traveled to Big Rapids and defeated the #1 Ferris State Bulldogs, 22-21!

Go Lakers!!

What?  Other teams are playing today?  Sorry….I was so freaking happy I forgot.  

That UTenn drive looked really good.  But it's Bama, they'll be okay.  This should be an entertaining game though!  More entertaining - in a non-morbid way - than UW-MSU...

Don't look now, but UConn has been playing actual football for a few weeks.

Nothing to wash down a Michigan blowout vs. a top 10 team like a Sharty loss.

Go Badgers.

Wait, no commercial after a kickoff? What's going on here?

Go Badgers and later on tonight, go Cardinal. 

So much for all that pressure. Young just made that throw like nothing. 

As of right now, teams with wins over 1-loss P5 teams:

Clemson (2)
Notre Dame
Michigan
Georgia
LSU
Tulane (!)
Indiana (!!!)

Sheesh that was a dime by Bryce.

Damn bama is like a machine 

Already 7-7. TN just might be good. 

Well that looked easy.  Not sure UTenn has the horses on defense to keep up with Bama all day.  Unless they start getting to Young consistently...

Alabama made some big plays and it is even now. TN has to keep up.

The big question is, if Tennessee wins, do the AP and the coaches have the guts to put Michigan above Bama?

MSU +7 at home to Wisky? Wow. Things are rough for MSU. A loss today would be nice so they can have a shitty bye week and be demoralized for UM.

Is it wrong that I'd rather watch a meh game and enjoy Sharty NO! schadenfruede vs the Badgers instead of a top10 matchup of Bama vs UT ?

Alabama looks the most beatable they've ever looked since Saban took over. Hard to say how good they really are. Impossible to tell how good Georgia is this year, either. They're trucking their opponents, but they don't play anybody. Conference schedule is the weakest it's ever been for them, this season. 

Spartan Stadium with a lot of empty seats today. Go Badgers!

Dammnnnn...  UTenn's offense is legit!

Hooker is a pretty good QB, it's wild to me that somehow Joe Milton beat him out at first.

These deep passes for connections are making me jealous. 

TN has come to play. Nice deep ball

So far, it's a shootout on Rocky Top. Go, Vols! Yeah. You will probably never hear that from me again. 

I don’t like that Jayden Daniel’s is at this TN game. TN is opening up the passing playbook on Bama right now. 

MSU giving up a sack on a 3 man rush, rough.

Watching MSU get beat down is a fun cap to Michigan beating the crap out of PSU

Lots of white surrender flags in MSU stadium today😝

People talk about how playing on grass is safer than FieldTurf, but apparently the grass MSU is growing isn't doing the job.

Bama hasn’t allowed a TD in the first quarter in 13 games. Today TN has two. At this pace, it wouldn’t surprise me if they got 3

Mertz hurt.. Ugh. C'mon. Msu is ready to fold like a cheap tent. OBLIGE THEM 

Young saving that safety was insane.
