Things calm down this weekend since Texas A&M has an open date, one they need after injuries accumulated in their last two games. The SEC games on television are just so-so.
Alabama at Tennessee is the 2:30 showcase game on CBS, matching last week's opponent (Tennessee) against next week's opponent (Alabama). This is must-see football for that reason alone. College Football News predicts it will be a 45-34 win for the Tide, and based upon what I've seen of both teams to date, that seems about right. UPDATE: I was sort of hoping that Tennessee would hang in there and give Alabama as tough a game as they gave A&M last Saturday. Instead, the Vols were on the bad end of a 49-10 stomping.
Other TV games and the CFN score prediction:
