There’s really not much of interest here all week, but it is football, so you know.
Gameday, November 11
This week will mark three night games in a row for the Vols, and I don’t know about you, but early Sunday mornings have been sleepy times for me this month. But there’s lots of good stuff with football noises on the television this Saturday, so man up.

Noon slot
Maybe it won’t matter much after the Tennessee-Missouri game this evening, but the LSU Tigahs are next, and so if you want to get a jump on what to expect for next week, here’s your chance.
Also in this time slot are the Florida Gators, and while I’m not a huge fan of schadenfreude, I do like anything that’s going to give the Vols an edge in the SEC East, so if they struggle and turn off recruits, too, well, our own problems may just keep us from feeling too bad about that.
And then there are a couple of big games, but one of them is in the Big 10, and . . . whatever, right? But if you love the process in Ames, the process will love you back.
Bonus: DVR that UCF game. You never know when it may come in handy.
Afternoon slot
All that stuff I said about Florida up there, same sentiment goes for Georgia. If Auburn winning means even one less blue chip commit for the Bulldogs, I’ll take it.
Vanderbilt plays at 4:00, and maybe we’ll want to know more about them, so keep them on the DVR, too, just in case. It could also turn into a Peek In game if Georgia-Auburn gets boring.
Evening slot
This time slot is going to test your fandom. Go Vols at 7:30 on the SEC Network against the Missouri Tigers, and all, but man, there are some good games and man that grass looks green. Root for Mississippi State to upset Alabama, and root for nice guy Mark Richt against the program everyone loves to hate. And that TCU at Oklahoma game just screams fireworks, so keep your eyes on it.
