Carla and Crappy Show: The Showtime Edition

It's Week 11 of the college football season ... and we're getting down to business. After last week's Group of Five frivolity, there are some serious games on the books this weekend. Which means we're getting all serious-like on the #CnCShow. 

 

(OK, so maybe it's also because one of us had to work on Election Night. But we're going to roll with it.)

 

Because we recorded earlier than usual this week, we begin by making our College Football Playoff ranking predictions. So listen to see how close we were! (Because, honestly, we were pretty close.)

 

And then: Three gigantic games. Let's go.

 

No. 4 Penn State at No. 17 Minnesota (Noon ET, ABC): The Golden Gophers have rowed the boat all the way to an 8-0 record, controlling their own destiny in the B1G West. Penn State suddenly finds itself right in the thick of the Playoff picture, but needing a win to remain there. The Nits have better wins on the year thus far; it might snow in Minnesota this weekend. Buckle up.

 

No. 2 LSU at No. 3 Alabama (3:30 ET, CBS): Just because these teams aren't No. 1 and No. 2 respectively doesn't make this any less important of a game. Both secondaries will get a workout facing these power offenses. How is Tua? We'll find out Saturday afternoon. 

 

No. 18 Iowa at No. 13 Wisconsin (4 ET, FOX): It's been a rough couple of weeks for Bucky. A win at home against the Hawkeyes could be just what the doctor ordered. After being bottled up by Ohio State, will Jonathan Taylor find his way through the also-really-good Iowa run defense? 

 

Enjoy the games, yinz guys.
