College Football Poll 11/17/2015

In the 11/10 poll the top ten schools were (change in parentheses):

#1 - Clemson (NC)
#2 - Alabama (NC)
#3 - Ohio State (NC)
#4 - Notre Dame (NC)
#5 - Iowa (NC)
#6 - Oklahoma State (+2)
#7 - Oklahoma (+5)
#8 - Florida (+3)
#9 - Michigan State (+4)
#10 - Baylor (-4)

If it looks familiar it's because it's exactly what I predicted the other day. See, anybody can get lucky on occasion.

So, what are the big games this weekend?

#1 - Clemson (10-0) will host Wake Forest (3-7) 
#2 - Alabama (9-1) will host Charleston Southern (9-1)
#3 - Ohio State (10-0) will host Michigan State (9-1) 
#4 - Notre Dame (9-1) will host Boston College (3-7) 
#5 - Iowa (10-0) will host Purdue (2-8) 
#6 - Oklahoma State (10-0) will host Baylor (8-1)
#7 - Oklahoma (9-1) will host TCU (9-1)
#8 - Florida (9-1) will host Florida Atlantic (2-8)
#9 - Michigan State (9-1) is at Ohio State (10-0)
#10 - Baylor (8-1) is at Oklahoma State (10-0)

All the top ten games are important but the big ones have to be:

Michigan State at Ohio State
Baylor at Oklahoma State
TCU at Oklahoma

If you're looking for big upset territory I'd keep an eye on Purdue at Iowa and Boston College at Notre Dame. I doubt that Clemson, Alabama or Florida will work up much of a sweat but, hey, you never know. That's why you have to play the game.
