Guess the Week 8 (10/19) Homecoming Game Start Time and TV against USC

Today we could find out the start time, here's the lineup that we know so far:

Friday 10/18

Oregon at Purdue 8 pm FOX

Saturday 10/19:

Iowa at Michigan State Noon/3:30/4/7:30 pm (MSU Homecoming)

Nebraska at Idniana Noon/3:30/4/7:30 pm (Indina Homecoming)

UCLA at Rutgers Noon/3:30/4/7:30 pm (Rutgers Homecoming)

Michigan at Illinois

Wisconsin at Northwestern

Notre Dame at Georgia Tech

Four Homecoming games for the B1G to juggle here. Since Michigan and Illinois are both currently ranked, that will get either the Big Noon Slot on Fox or the NBC Primetime. Michigan is on a bye this week so they won't move down and Illinois is hosting Purdue so they shouldn't fall from the rankings. Since the best looking on paper Big 12 matchup (meaning I haven't looked up their records) is Baylor at Texas Tech and Deion Sanders is in Tucson, Michigan and Illinois will probably get that slot and allow Nebraska and Indania to go on NBC. That looks to be a subtlety attractive game (the Hoosiers and Cornhuskers are both off this week). But I could see those two games getting flipped.

Notre Dame is on the road which means that they don't factor into the B1G scheduling matrix and gives NBC a 3:30 pm slot if they want it. See-BS however does have one and I can see Iowa at MSU getting that.

Wisconsin at Northwestern has BTN 3:30 pm written all over it.

Something I've been keeping an eye on is the number of Noon kickoffs for the new West Coast schools, UCLA had one last Saturday at State Penn. Washington is a getting one this week at Iowa which is Central, not Eastern Time zone, but still amounts to a 9 am body clock kickoff for the Huskies. I doubt the B1G does that more than once a season to the West Coast teams, so UCLA at Rutgers will likely land a 3:30, maybe 4 pm kickoff on FS1/BTN/Fox.

That leaves us with another Noon kickoff since this is USC's final trip out of the Western Time zone for the regular season. BTN is the most likely TV coverage though a head's up if you have Comcast as your cable provider, watching the game on TV will be a problem. Not that I was looking to, but I couldn't watch the USC-Minnesota game on BTN Saturday night in Alexandria, VA because of the BTN-Comcast Dispute.

OT: Fire Brandon Hyde

I'm done with him. He did a masterful job getting the team through the rebuild, but we've gone as far as he can take us. I'm tired of his overmanaging, except for when he really does have to make a managerial decision, and then he just sits on his hands. He doesn't have his players backs when they're getting abused by umpires. He has to go. I'm so angry we wasted a season with a bona fide ace.

***Indiana Game Thread***

We’re about 20 minutes from kickoff between the Terps and Hoosiers in Bloomington. Weather is likely to play a factor as it rained overnight and it’s expected to rain throughout the afternoon.

As to the keys to this one, it is likely to be as simple as, ‘can Maryland slow down Indiana’s passing attack?’ And with that, can Maryland force a turnover or two?

On offense, the Terps will look to keep feeding Felton, but he will face a very good Indiana pass defense today. Can he keep up the pace of the past four weeks?

Tai Felton named to Biletnikoff watch list

COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- Senior wide receiver Tai Felton has been named to the Biletnikoff Award Watch List, the Tallahassee Quarterback Club announced today, Oct. 2. The award is presented annually to college football's most outstanding receiver, regardless of position. Anyone who catches a pass is eligible for the award.

Felton is part of five in-season additions to the watchlist on the heels of his blistering start to the season. Felton currently leads the Big Ten in receptions (46) and receiving yards (642) and is tied for third in receiving TDs (5). His reception and receiving yard numbers both rank third overall among FBS players.

The 2023 All-Big Ten honoree had at least 100 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown in each of his first four games of the season. He is the first player in program history to start a season with four consecutive 100-yard games and just the third Big Ten player to do so since 1996, joining Garrett Wilson of Ohio State in 2020 and Charles Rogers of Michigan State in 2002. Felton also became just the second Terp in program history to have any four consecutive games with 100+ receiving yards, tying the mark Jermaine Lewis set in 1994.

Felton is the only Maryland player since 1996 with 600+ receiving yards in the team's first five games. His 642 receiving yards are the most by a Big Ten receiver through his team's first five games since Indiana's Ty Fryfogle recorded 642 yards in 2020

Semifinalists for the award will be announced on Nov. 18, 2024 and three finalists will be named on Nov. 26, 2024. The Biletnikoff Award Winner will be announced on The Home Depot College Football Awards, which will air live on ESPN on Dec. 12, 2024.

Same 'Ol

Oh look, the B1G won't admit they again have refs favor only certain teams, they don't have to, it is obvious.

I always maintain, better teams don't get calls, getting calls makes teams better, ask Va Tech.

This sleighed me... Terp and dead terrorists related

With Israel picking off all the Hamas and Hezbollah leaders and now their backups as well leaving them essentially to play with walk ons and also eliminating one of the lead devils Hassan Nasrallah... I read this in one of the X random replies

"Allah is like 0 and 50 in his last 50 wars.. he is the Mike Locksley of deities."

I followed 3 teams this weekend. Ultimately all underwhelmed…

The Terps won the underwhelming part again. The plethora of self-inflicted penalties, ineffective OL play and shitty defense won’t win many games.

The Canes won, but it was a bit shady.

Auburn auburned. Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, again, vs a top tier team. Now they go to GA then Mizzou.

The Canes D is as bad as the Terps. Auburn’s O is similar to the Terps, but they can actually run the football. All 3 have warts. The Canes and Tigers would both, right now, beat up the Terps. 🤷‍♂️
