Not a great week as far as marquee matchups go, but a lot of conference games for ranked teams against middle of the road conference opponents.  So lots of chances for upsets.  Friday night is actually pretty solid here, with a Big Ten game, UCF-FAU in maybe the mid-major game of the year, plus the Pirate invading Troy.  Really solid Friday night.

If you put a 1 in front of the 4, that would be a more interesting coaching matchup of former QBs coaching at their alma mater

won't be a fair fight this fall, but interesting

interesting that they will both have McCaffrey brothers as QBs

The Nebraska game is the wild card for Michigan. I don't think they win more than one out of Notre Dame, MSU, PSU or Wisconsin. So if Scott Frost gets 'em, the season could really go off of the rails. The back up QB will become extremely popular all of a sudden.
