College Football Week 8 TV schedule: How to binge-watch
Saturday 3:30-6:30
Colorado at Washington, 3:30 p.m. EST, FOX
Both teams are coming off of tough losses, and had they won last week this would be a much bigger deal, but it’s still a big matchup that should tell us a lot about the Pac-12 race. Washington should win this game, but Colorado is still very talented, and their offense will give Washington everything it can handle. If the Buffs win, they’re right back in the Pac-12 South race with USC, if they lose, they probably fall out. The same can be said for Washington in the North, as they trail Oregon right now.
One sentence sell: The 3:30 slate isn’t great, and this is one of only a couple interesting matchups.
NC State at Clemson, 3:30 p.m. EST, ESPN
This is pretty much the ACC championship game, because the winner would have to lose twice in conference play from here on out while the loser wins out for the loser to win the Atlantic. With how bad everyone else is in this conference, I just don’t see that, and we know the Coastal isn’t challenging either one of these teams in the conference championship.
One sentence sell:Â Clemson is probably going to win, but NC State played them close each of the last two years. Maybe they have a little magic left to stay undefeated?
