The Weekend Slate

Greensboro, NC -- The weekend is finally here and I'll be busy with family in town. That won't stop me from checking out the following slate of games.

• Georgia at Kentucky, 12:30 p.m. Saturday. The Bulldogs need to rebound from the ugly lopsided loss to Florida. Lexington seems like the right place to get back on track. Also, before the Florida game, I was going to blog about Knowshon Moreno emerging as a Heisman Trophy candidate. He must have huge games here on out to be considered.
• Virginia at Wake Forest, 3:30 p.m. Saturday. I'll be attending this game at BB&T Field. Both of these teams have had roller coaster seasons. Wake, revealing their new stadium renovation and coming off of back-to-back bowl seasons, had huge expectations this year, especially since QB Riley Skinner is only a junior. It appears that the loss to Navy back in the end of September completely deflated their season.
• Oklahoma State at Texas Tech, 8:00 p.m. Saturday. Can Texas Tech keep the magic going against the Cowboys from last week's thriller against Texas?
• Florida at Vandy, 8:00 p.m. Saturday. Last time that Florida played at Vandy, I was there! Let's see if Vandy can rebound from a very rough stretch of their schedule.
• New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles, 8:30 p.m. Sunday. There are no other spicy matchups this weekend, plus the Skins have a bye. I imagine I'll tune into this game when Sunday's festivities are over.

Enjoy the weekend. See you next week in the Bistro.
