Carla and Crappy Show: The #MACtion Distraction Edition

It’s Week 11 of the college football season, and we have a problem. We’re well **TOUCHDOWN** into November and #MACtion is in full swing — meaning that there are potentially important games being played **WOOOOO** as we tape on Tuesday nights.

 

How important? How’s about the annual rivalry game between Crappy’s OU **THAT’S NOT HOLDING** Bobcats and the cake-eaters at Miami — it’s THAT important. So this week, Crappy does his best to maintain focus **FIRST DOWN** on the show while watching the game — with modest success.

 

Last weekend was remarkable, from the weather in the Midwest (Jeez, Chicago…) to the **IT WAS A CATCH** upsets in South Bend and Baton Rouge that likely eliminated two of the sport’s biggest brands from the CFP. Those **TOUCHDOWN** upsets were reflected in the new CFP rankings, which were much more to the liking of Carla and Crappy than the initial effort.

 

Cornell acquitted itself well in a loss to Penn, AJ comes close to using the words “Tulane” and “game of the week” in the **TERRIBLE CALL** same sentence … and then Carla and Crappy set out to pick this week’s contests.

 

Missouri at No. 5 Tennessee, Noon Saturday, CBS

Mizzou is better than their record would indicate, but the Tigers picked a rough weekend to visit Knoxville.

Purdue at No. 21 Illinois, Noon, ESPN2

A great offense against a great defense? That can honestly go either way. A pretty good offense against the nation’s No. 1 defense in scoring and yards allowed? Oof.

No. 9 Alabama at No. 11 Ole Miss, 3:30, CBS

The potential for Saban-Kiffin drama is far more interesting than anything that might happen football-wise.

 

Maryland at No. 14 Penn State, 3:30, Fox

Good offenses can’t score if they don’t have the ball. Maryland? Meet Penn State tailbacks Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen. You’ll be seeing a lot of them on Saturday.

No. 25 Washington at No. 6 Oregon, 7, Fox

Two of the best QBs in the country. An AJ Fun Index of 72.5. Guys. Just watch this one.

 

No. 4 TCU at No. 18 Texas, 7:30, ABC

Longhorn Kryptonite: Playing teams ranked in the Top 5. Oh, hey, look — TCU is ranked 4th.

 

No. 15 North Carolina at Wake Forest, 7:30, ESPN 2

Wake was still reeling last weekend, and beating Carolina isn’t going to be any easier. It should be, however, interesting to watch — with an AJ Fun Index of SEVENTY-SEVEN AND ONE HALF POINTS.

 

We wrap with Carla updating us on Middle, Crappy congratulating Kansas on bowl eligibility and the conclusion of the aforementioned Battle of the Bricks. If you want to hear Crappy’s reaction, you’ll have to listen until the end. Enjoy this week’s games, boys and girls, and we’ll see you back here next week.
