Carla and Crappy Show: The It’s A Whole Other Country Edition

It's Week 6 of the college football season, and one of us is still basking in the glow of last weekend ... and the other one is still a bit bitter over 4th and 5. But we digress. There are some amazing games -- many of them taking place in Texas -- to occupy our time this first weekend in October ... even if it's still pretty darn hot outside.

Texas vs. Oklahoma (Noon ET, FOX): This year, the old "Red River Shootout" moniker would seem to be more apt as these two offenses go head-to-head in one of the best rivalry games in all of the land. (And go ahead -- YOU try to say "Red River Rivalry.")

LSU at Florida (3:30 ET, CBS): The antithesis of the Big 12's showcase game, this one looks to be more of a defensive affair. Can Joe Burrow and the LSU offense figure out the Florida defense in the Swamp?

Kentucky at Texas A&M (7 ET, ESPN): Kentucky is unbeaten. In football. And while we say that a bit tongue-in-cheek, the Wildcats face a tough test on the road this weekend ... and breakout phenom Benny Snell faces one of the toughest rush defenses in the country.

Notre Dame at Virginia Tech (8 ET, ABC): OK, Ian Book, let's see what you're made of. In addition to one of the best night game atmospheres in college football, the Hokies also boast a top-five rush defense.

And ... we'll raise our midday fizzy flavored water beverages (the disadvantages to a noonday taping!) during this show to Tennessee State linebacker Christion Abercombie who is still recovering in the hospital after a serious head injury last weekend. We're pulling for you, kid. Hang in there.

Enjoy the football this weekend. (And gosh darn it, someone beat Notre Dame already, would ya?)
