see here is my list of games (Bold) worth going out of my way to see or at the least read about this week. along the way you always get tipped to games you skipped. I am not writing about them all sorry.

Re: Week 13
 

These games should pique some interest:

LSU vs. Alabama 8:00 PM EST

UL-Lafayette vs. Georgia St 2:00 PM EST

Rutgers vs. JiM Harbaugh 3:30 PM EST

I don't really need the Michigan game broke down, I just like calling them the "Jim Harbaugh's" because they're basically the same players Brady Hoke couldn't win with last season, :) .

Re: Week 13
 

Notre Dame vs. Pitt 12:00 PM EST
Tyler Boyd Vs the secondary of ND. Bad thing here is this.quickly name Pitts QB.

Duke vs. North Carolina 12:00 PM EST

I have talked about FS Jeremy Cash before and there is no question is impact as a S/LB but today he faces a UNC receiver trio that might just force Duke to pull him out of the box and stick him into coverage .Think of him as a Kenny Vaccaro clone.

Florida St vs. Clemson 3:30 PM EST
All the players are well scouted but the question to be answered for me is a simple one. Can Clemson run for a full 60 minutes with Florida St.

Iowa vs. Indiana 3:30 PM EST
This is a match up of two teams on the opposite sides of a hand grenade and horse shoe game. Iowa has pulled a few games out of their ... to go undefeated and Indinia is just a few plays away from making this a huge game in the Big Ten.

Iowa
Desmond King, CB, Iowa - size and coverage skills are all there. but the games were he faces a true WR/QB duo match up has yet to happen. Does he have the speed and quickness?

Austin Blythe Center and and Jordan Walsh, Guard, may be a little lite in regards to have enough sand in their pants at under 300lbs. but there is no argument they are your usually solid all around blockers that Iowa always produces.

Indiana
Nate Sudfeld, QB, Senior (6-6, 240, 5.02) is an interesting prospect that might be the QB in this year draft that has done the most to improve his game. Losing all of the starting WR last year has effected his development a bit but after splitting time for two years and sitting out with injury last years, he had people wondering if he could do it in Sr year. Well no real disappoints here to be found. want a solid prospect to develop? look no further.

Jason Spriggs, OT, Senior (6-6, 305, 5.07) has proved he has the skill set to make an NFL team. TE to OT move was a solid move for him. Looking for a solid to OT for development? One that might just be ideal for tackle eligible plays? round 2 maybe round 3 but i doubt it

Penn St vs. Northwestern 12:00 PM EST
This is all about Defenses here. Shame there is really no offense to talk about with either. If any team would benefit the most from all its Jr returning to school it would have to be Penn St. They are loaded with some talented youth right now. Christian Hackenberg should return for a senior season IMO.

Arkansas vs. Ole Miss 3:30 PM EST
I really want to see more of this hog OL. It could be developing into a very solid unit

TCU vs. Oklahoma St 3:30 PM EST
Get the bucket brigade in this barn burner.
Trevone Boykin is playing way over his head and lighting up the score boards. He throws a beautiful deep ball that rivals anyone in college or the NFL. It is a thing of beauty to watch.

WR Josh Doctson vs. CB Kevin Peterson
Josh is not a burner by any means. He is a skinny bean pole of a WR has great hands and chases down and time jumps with the best of them. Now the real question will be can CB Kevin Peterson slow him down and limit, ok minimize Doctson production. This is the perfect match up for technique I have seen in a while. neither on will out run the other so they should be in each others face all game long. This should be one of the better match ups of the week.

Additionally, Oklahoma State junior DE Emmanuel Ogbah is starting to become one of my favorite upside picks in the 1st. I usually stay away from hype and upside for round 1 but this kid is impressive and still very raw.

Game of the Week

LSU vs. Alabama 8:00 PM EST
Ok who will win the trenches? That is what this game will boil down to as we all know. Nice thing here if the saints keep winning picking in the range of twenty puts a ton of prospects in the lime light to watch in this one. yep i am still sticking with the pick 20 area in the draft for the saints. 5 pick swing either way. This is the match up to watch IMO. Vadel as an OG for the saints would be a solid pick. OG that can jump out to OT if needed.

RT Vadal Alexander vs DE Jonathan Allen
NT Jarran Reed and A'Shawn Robinson vs lSU interior
Round 2 possibilties
Kendell Beckwith, MLB, LSU
Reggie Ragland, MLB, Alabama,
The list goes on and on.

Is this the game Travin Dural takes his place in the national spot light? Can LSU really have the QB play win this game for them?


Arizona vs. USC 10:30 PM EST
We all know about Arizona and the solid team they have. We also know about the dysfunctional train wreck USC is or was before booting the drunk from the side lines. USC is starting to be the team we thought they might be at the start season. No more pints at half time seems to be the answer for them. Well worth staying up to watch this match up.

I have not followed either one really enough to commit on this match up.

Yeah I was looking forward to this match up but it has taken a back seat. Rutgers looked very interesting especially a few defensive players but lack of size really showed for them in the past few games. I have not written them off, but this is such a big week my head is else where.

Tell you what on of my favorite tE is in this game. Jake Butt. Then you have A.J. Williams and he is too big to ignore

Lb's Bolden as a late-rounder and Morgan and Jenkins-Stone as potential free agents. add to it DL Chris Wormley Graham Glasgow and Michigan is loaded with some of the best late round and UDFA in this draft so far.

Re: Week 13
 

Yep Clemson can handle the speed it would appear. Dreaming of a Baylor/Oklahoma match up in the near future.

Was there a first round talent in this game? I really need to look at this hog OL.

Boykin came crashing down to earth and the old question about mental toughness have resurfaced.

OSU is for real. Clemson vs OSU or Baylor is high on my wish list. Baylor may just get the boot from the unbeaten. Baylor vs OSU is now the game i am waiting to see.

Baylor Bears @ Oklahoma State
Saturday, November 21, 2015
time: TBA

I think being at OSU is going to be huge

What can you say this is once again a loss on Less. He just does not have the ability to coach that final polish on any LSU team to shine in the spot light when it really matters. Discipline or the lack of lost this game on the defensive side of the ball. OL got taken to school. play calling was typical tiger ball. that is the issue and has been for a while. Les will rack up the wins but he has yet to shine in prime time. his 15 minutes of fame came with a team some one else built and coached. But he still racks up a ton of wins just not the big ones.

now that was a fun game to stay up and watch
