NJDuck Author Moderator No. 2 Share Posted September 6 Jon Joseph Posted: WEEK 2 - The Biggest B1G Games. P4 vs P4 and a B1G P4 vs P5 Huge Game in Autzen. All teams below are 1-0. AP Poll rankings including Others Receiving Votes used. Friday 9/6 NR Duke at NR Northwestern -2: Tune in to see NW's temporary 'high school stadium' on the shores of Lake Michigan. A beautiful setting. 6 PM FS1 (All times Pacific.) Saturday 9/7 3 Texas -7.5 at 19 Michigan: Can the Wolverines D stop a Longhorns O that looked unstoppable last week vs. Colorado State? Can the Michigan O that struggled vs. Fresno State put up enough points to win the game? This is this week's B1G Headline game and the SEC Headline game. 9 AM FOX. 29 Iowa State at 21 Iowa -3: The Cy-Hawk Game. Iowa's D as expected, was solid last Saturday, and OMG!, the Hawkeyes O put up 37 points in the 2nd half! Get down on the 35.5 Over? 12:30 CBS 19 Kansas -5.5 at NR Illinois: A healthy Illini QB, Luke Altmyer, threw for 2 TDs on Saturday, and the Illinois O with a healthy QB looked much improved and against a lesser opponent, the D played as it did in 2022, before losing five starters to the NFL. This will be the 1st sell-out for Illinois in the last 8 years. 4 PM FS1. NR Colorado at 31 Nebraska -7.5: Batman and Robin, Sheduer Sanders, and Travis Hunter, balled out in the victory over North Dakota State. And they had to as CU showed another suspect D and O line. Cornhuskers QB Frosh Dylan Riola played as advertised last Saturday. With a win, Nebraska should replace one of the B12 teams, and Clemson, at the bottom of the AP Poll. 4:30 PM NBC NR Michigan State at NR Maryland -9.5: An early conference opener for two B1G M+Ms. Sparty QB Aiden Chiles was shaky last week while the Terps QB, Billy Edwards, Jr. played an excellent game vs D2 Howard. 12:30 BTN 28 Boise State at Oregon -19.5: Has OBD ever had a bigger game vs. a G5 opponent? The Broncos, 3-0 vs. Oregon all time, come into Autzen fired up after putting up 56 points on Clay Helton's Georgia State. For Pride, the Playoff, and Puddles sake, the Ducks offense better show up to play a four-quarter game. And the D better be prepared to hold down one of the nation's best RBs Ashton Jeantry and true Frosh RB, Sire Gaines. For what the Ducks have to do to put the Idaho embarrassment behind them, read Charles's excellent article up today on the Forum. 7 PM Peacock BUST THE BRONCOS! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
