As always conference games make or break a season for many NCAA football teams. The SEC and Big 10 are famous for cannibalizing themselves. For the non-BSC conferences (or should I say the conferences that don’t have a freebie into the BCS) it is crucial to walk straight through the conference schedule unbeaten. Besides conference games the non-conference games have huge implications. I have put together a list of absolutely huge season changing games for this season.
2007 Big Football Games:
Week 1 – Tennessee at California
PAC 10 or SEC? Get this season started right in week 1
Week 1 – Utah at Oregon State
I think Oregon State can make some noise this season, but will a non-BCS league make the first knock out?
Week 2 – TCU at Texas
For all the BCS buster lovers this game is huge. I may be more excited to see this game than any other on the schedule.
Week 2 – BYU at UCLA
Can the Mountain West earn respect by ruining UCLA’s hopes?
Week 3 – USC at Nebraska
PAC 10 vs Big 12 frontrunners
Week 3 – West Virginia at Maryland
Big East’s best vs. ACC potential champ candidate
Week 3 – Notre Dame at Michigan
Always entertaining, always important to both teams
Week 3 – Tennessee at Florida
Two title potentials, who will stay in the race?
Week 6 – Oklahoma vs. Texas
This game should be big, again as always
Week 6 – Florida at LSU
This could be the national championship game, but it will probably knock one out of the running.
Week 6 – Utah at Louisville
One of five huge games for the under appreciated Mountain West conference
Week 7 – Wisconsin at Penn State
Which Big 10 team will challenge Michigan?
Week 8 – California at UCLA
Narrows down who will challenge USC in the PAC10
Week 9 – Nebraska at Texas
Possible Big 12 Championship match up
Week 9 – Boston College at Virginia Tech
ACC contenders duking it out
Week 11 – USC at California
PAC 10 showdown
Week 11 – Michigan at Wisconsin
Big 10 game of the year
Week 11 – Louisville at West Virginia
Which Big East team will be a title contender?
Week 12 – Ohio State at Michigan
This huge rivalry is always a big game
Week 13 – Boise State at Hawaii
Both teams might be 11-0 and knocking on the BCS’s doorstep
Week 13 – Florida State at Florida
Every year this game is big
Week 14 – UCLA at USC
Another PAC 10 showdown
