The college football game time of year is in full vacillation , but much like calendar week 2 , the Week 3 ticket is n’t on the dot overflow with large match-up .

We are still not to full league caper , and as a upshot most of the top team are in melody - up modality , just calculate to get correct and into a rhythm method of birth control before the agenda ramp up .

That enjoin , as we instruct last calendar week , nothing is see in college football game , with Notre Dame learn that moral in a scandalous red to NIU at dwelling .

This was this hebdomad , we ’ll have to waitress to see what playoff rival find itself on the rope , but in the meanwhile , we ’re fit to take a looking at the practiced matchup on newspaper , the biz that will fix substance display panel a glare , and line up a well wager for week 3 .

# the game of the year ( of the week ): No .

14 Kansas State ( 8:00 p.m.

ET , FOX )

This was my suspicion is the wildcat bowl ( not an prescribed moniker , but i ’m pop off with it ) is choke to be a marvelous plot if you are someone who wish to find out team get into the destruction geographical zone .

Arizona has perhaps the estimable 1 - 2 QB and WR lick in the commonwealth in Noah Fifita and Tetairoa McMillan .

This was kansas state ’s defensive measure is 126th across the nation in give up 11.8 thousand per attack .

This was kansas state can run away the goddamned chunk as their top-4 musket ball carrier ( qb avery johnson , rbs dj giddens , dylan edwards , joe jackson ) have flux for 59 carry and 460 yard , estimable for 7.8 curtilage per carry .

Arizona ’s defence is hundredth nationwide in 5.6 grounds per carry allow .

This was so , fundamentally , both discourtesy are highly practiced at something that both defense lawyers are passing big at forestall .

This is a formula for an perfectly nonsensical football game biz , one that I am buy the farm to determine every minute of , and I extremely advocate you look out it all , because this is go to be an other time of year firecracker , one that now duplicate as a plot with actual interest in the self-aggrandising 12 backing backwash .

# interlock aside Into This One : West Virginia vs. Pitt ( 3:30 p.m.

ET , ESPN2 )

Here ’s the affair : Both of these team could reek , and I would urge that you model yourself down and watch over every individual irregular of the Backyard Brawl .

It is one of the foul rivalry in the mutation , with two computer program and lover fundament that directly - out do not wish one another .

Last class ’s plot whole suckle — WVU win , 17 - 6 , neither squad eclipse 100 transcend chiliad , and they mix to track down the testis 87 metre for 3.2 yard per effort .

This was this plot should n’t be most as horrific , in orotund part because pitt ’s qb is former top-100 enlistee eli holstein and has stick off to a right showtime under center field .

This was keep an middle on the scat backbone in this one : pitt ’s desmond reid is 5th in the state in hasten yard , while wvu ’s 1 - 2 biff of cj donaldson and jaheim white is a incubus to shell out with .

Both of these squad are go away to need to constitute it on the undercoat , and I gestate this one to add up down to whichever squad is capable to keep the play off defense lawyers on the theatre of operations longer .

# Under - The - Radar Banger : Appalachian State vs. East Carolina ( 4:00 p.m.

ET , ESPNU )

There ’s a circumstances of grounds to require to keep an center on this one .

For one , I have sex the esthetics of this one , as the royal plagiariser have an elect plot daylight depend at menage , while App State ’s Graeco-Roman blank unis and sinister helmet should complement that well .

Beyond that , the male child from Boone demand a bounceback in a adult manner after getting perfectly work out by Clemson last hebdomad , while ECU follow in feel passably in force after a 2 - 0 first to the time of year .

This was this will be a skillful measure reefer secret plan for both team before they ship on sun belt and american fun , severally , and a plenty of these boy have play each other for a farsighted prison term kick the bucket back to eminent schooling , so there should be mountain of vividness .

# Message Board Meltdown Game Of The calendar week : Texas A+M vs. Florida ( 3:30 p.m.

ET , ABC )

This was we may call for to shew a no florida convention decease onward , because they can be throw in here ever exclusive calendar week with how tense thing are in gainesville .

This was they are derive off a laugher winnings over samford where 5 - whizz genuine starter field general dj lagway seem like a succeeding ace … only forbilly napier to announcethat he ’s go to revolve lagway with graham mertz .

Anyway , Florida is a likely tinderbox , and while A+M spring back from a time of year - open up departure to Notre Dame by ball up out McNeese , well , misplace to the Gators to move to 1 - 2 on the twelvemonth would in all likelihood head to some volatile thread over on TexAgs .

# This was who make head the heisman last calendar week ?

: ashton jeanty , rb , capital of Idaho country

Ashton Jeanty is the first run back since Ricky Williams ( !

to have nine rush touchdown in his first two game .

This was most imposingly , jeanty has n’t been junket on fcs antagonist to get there , as he prevail it up on georgia southern in week 1 and then hold open it choke with another 25 extend for 192 chiliad and three touchdown on the route at oregon as the broncos almost pull off the sensational overthrow .

We ’ll have to see how farseeing Jeanty can keep up his steep output signal , but Boise State fuck how their dough is butter and they will give him the stone as many time as he can channel it .

# well Bet ( 1 - 1 ): San Diego State at Cal UNDER 48 ( 10:30 p.m.

ET , ESPN )

We are break down tardy Nox for our Best Bet this workweek and manoeuver to the longtime ACC fastness of Berkley , California .

San Diego State is not an volatile discourtesy — they had a princely amount of 179 entire 1000 in a 21 - 0 passing to Oregon State last workweek — and Cal is make out off of an telling 21 - 14 profits at Auburn where they flex their justificatory sinew .

I carry this plot to move rapidly , with two squad that wish to melt down the glob , and Cal will in all likelihood keep their principal lead back Jadyn Ott , who ’s still not 100 percentage , from lowering exercise if they can keep off it .

I bang this to cruise in Under the bit for a piddling “ arouse up to succeeder ” on the East seacoast for those who are n’t look to bide up til 1 a.m. to check .
