2026 College Football Week 10
With the season moving into November MACtion returns.
Tuesday
Ohio vs Akron - No word on if another lucky fan will be able to be offensive coordinator for a drive for the Zips in yet another lost season. The Bobcats are arguably the class of the MAC. 2 White RBs - Rosa and Brune, WR Riley Neer, dual thread QB Nick Poulos and WTM LB Michael Molnar.
Buffalo vs Miami (OH) - The Redhawks lost their outstanding transfer QB David McComb earlier this season but backup QB Caleb Heavner has come in and filled in admirably. The blemish here is RB Cade Yacamelli being completely ignored in the running back rotation. Defense has some White contributors as well. Buffalo has some White defensive players. A decently palatable game.
Wednesday
Ball St vs UMASS - Pass
Toldeo vs Sacramento St - Sac State should have remained and FCS team. Toledo has the best QB in the conference in John Allan Richter, however RB Connor Walendzak's touches have been cut into by two upside Americans as the season has progressed. Not sure if this is due to injury. He's a playmaker and fun to watch. The skill position players are very dark otherwise. LB Isaac Zay leads the team in INTs (2). DE Andrew Zock has 8 sacks and Zach Johnson has three.
Central Michigan vs Eastern Michigan - EMU has RB Joey Mattord, WR/PR Nick Devereaux and sometimes a White QB. LB Zach Mowchan leads the team in tackles. Central Michigan's leading tackler is LB Mayson Hitchens. Gone are the Dan LeFevour and Cooper Rush days!
Thursday
UTSA vs FAU - The Veltkamp-Messer connection has picked up steam in recent weeks with both players putting up huge numbers. Very fun to watch this duo at least as the efficient Owen McCown at QB of another wise very dark team. This game is overall demographically challenged but the best players are White for both squads.
JMU vs Southern Miss - The Dukes are on a two game losing streak and their chance of crashing the playoffs has disappeared. It seems that head coach Billy Napier likes to pull QB Camden Coleman for the black QB at times during a game which doesn't make much sense. RB Nick Herman seems to be used less than he should be but WR Braeden Wisloski is at least getting a little more involved in recent weeks. Southern Miss is very dark but does have Alabama transfer (walk on there of course) Kolby Peavy in the defensive backfield.
Friday
Va Tech vs SMU - I'll sound like a broken record but the Grunkenmeyer to Reynolds connection is fun to watch and Aycen Stevens is one of the better pash rushers in the country. SMU is not redeemable.
South Florida vs ECU - Not sure what is going on with the ECU QB situation but WR Landon Sides production has seen an uptick in recent weeks. Their defensive front 7 has 4 White athletes that contribute as well. QB Luke Kromenhoek played QB for much of last week's game for the Bulls and was much more productive on the ground than through the air.
Nebraska vs Illinois - RB Aiden Laughery sits at 560 yards with 4 games left, hopefully Bielema lets him get enough carries on through the last 4 games to hit 1k yards. QB Katin Houser is back after not missing too much time due to injury. WR Hudson Clement has quietly had a solid season as well. DB Tanner Eckel picked off the Maryland upsider last weekend. Nebraska is on a losing streak once again. That 14 point swing last week to lose to the Huskies was bad.
New Mexico vs Nevada - More defensive players than offensive players to watch in this game - Nevada Edge Dylan LaBarbera with 6.5 tfls and 4.5 sacks so far this season. New Mexico has one of the best P6 defenses with several White contributors - S Austin Brawley has 4 INTs, LB Mercury Swaim leads the team in tackles, DE Brett Karhu has 6 sacks. Their poly QB stinks but Eck seems content with keeping him at QB.
Saturday
BYU vs Utah - WR Kyler Kasper has finally become a weapon after several years of being screwed over at Oregon. For Utah it's the usual suspects - DB Jackson Benee, S Nate Ritchie, LB Trey Reynolds on defense with the duo of Pagan and Whittemore at WR along with TE Noah Bennee.
UCLA vs Minnesota - I think UCLA should be considered a CF friendly team - 3/5 White OL, TE, QB and 4 defensive contributors. Certainly not the most palatable team of all time but better than average. Minnesota should present a challenge as they have one of the better defenses that has been discussed and highlighted over the course of the season. Fleck needs to open up the offense more though.
Texas vs Missouri - Arch Manning had an efficient showing last week in the Longhorns dominant win at Mississippi State. Hopefully he can string together 4 more solid performances down the stretch. Missouri has nothing.
Iowa St vs Baylor - RB Aiden Flora exploded against Oklahoma State last week in their upset win. It's safe to assume he will have another good performance this week. WR Gavin Freeman continues to enjoy a breakout season and should be earning looks from the NFL. RB Dawson Pendergrass seems to have disappeared.
Clemson vs Syracuse - Last year Syracuse QB Steven Angeli was injured against Clemson after his hot start to the season. The Orange pulled off an upset last week against SMU and I like Angeli enough to not mind if he leads another upset here. Clemson is on an upward trajectory, it seems that QB Tait Reynolds finally had his breakout game as a true freshman against FSU last week. DE Will Heldt has been a real force as well this season and coming on strong as of late.
FSU vs Boston College - FSU's head coach got canned after last week's loss to Clemson. BC was embarrassed by Duke. Hopefully they bounce back, QB Mason McKenzie has an outside shot at 1k rushing yards and RB Bo MacCormack should again see increased usaged. A Charlie Comella INT would be great as well.
UNC vs UCONN - The Tarheels almost pulled the upset last week on Miami. This is a game they should win, QB Billy Edwards has been steady all season. LBs Derek McDonald and Peyton Seelmann are 1 and 2 in tackles. UCONN is pretty pathetic demographically for a mid-major school.
Duke vs NC State - Duke is a good football team, very good run game and strong defense along with quality QB play. DB Andrew Pellicciotta may return this week. This is a caste matchup.
Maryland vs Purdue - I like the Purdue QB, he might be a transfer portal target. I don't see the Boilermakers being bowl eligible with Iowa, Wisconsin and Indiana on the schedule after a bad Maryland team. Hopefully Browne has a big game here.
Oklahoma St vs Kansas St - The Cowboys lost an entertaining game last week to Iowa State due to the defense giving up 50+ points. Mestermaker is an ascending talent and as it comes to the NFL draft has risen above the magical upsiders that stain the positional rankings as QB#1. He's a fun QB to watch. WR Wyatt Young had a drop and a taunting penalty which hurt the team late in the game, hopefully those mental mistakes are behind him. For Kansas St bad news for @Freethinker as their starting QB appears to be lost for the season which makes the Wildcats a little more palatable.
Alabama vs LSU - QB Sam Leavitt has strung together a few strong starts and will hopefully continue to do so through November. It should help his draft stock, like Mestermaker he has some Josh Allen to his game. LB Whit Weeks seems probable to return this weekend from injury and Alabama has the talented duo of LB Luke Metz and S Bray Hubbard.
Oregon vs Ohio St - Just want the wheels to fall off for the Buckeyes. Hope to see Perich get an INT.
Cincinnati vs Houston - The battle of bad transfer portal decisions - For the Bearcats WR/RB Cade Wolford is incognito. On the other side WR Trent Walker has seen an uptick in production. Dynamic TE Patrick Overmyer returns to give ascending QB Connor Weigman a full arsenal of targets for this game.
Penn St vs Washington - PSU's schedule is favorable down the stretch. Hansen needs another game with 15+ carries, it seems that Campbell is intent with using an RB committee though. For Washington the playmaking S Alex McLaughlin is the team leader in tackles and INTs. He had a game changing pick 6 last weekend against Nebraska.
Marshall vs Ga Southern - A White RB Judah Price against a White CB Chance Gamble. QB Max Johnson has been solid this year, another case of what could have been for him if things went different earlier in his career.
Louisiana Tech vs Troy - The Bulldogs are 6-2 and one of the better P6 teams.
Vanderbilt vs Mississippi St - Mostly interested in seeing how QB Jared Curtis performs.
Rutgers vs Wisconsin - The Badgers should knock Rutgers out of bowl contention this week.
Boise St vs Colorado St - The Broncos lost their starting QB Maddux Madsen. QB Hauss Hejny is one of the better P6 QBs but the Rams still can't play defense. Could be an upset due to the disparity between the QBs this week.
Kentucky vs Tennessee - Want to see Kentucky lose, hopefully fatso Heupel plans on playing George MacIntyre this week.
Miami vs Notre Dame - Rooting heavily for the Irish in this game. I dislike Miami greatly. Carr needs to have a marquee game and hopefully this is it. Major playoff implications as well.
Georgia vs Ole Miss - Bulldogs all the way. Not sure who has a more punchable face - the Ole Miss QB or the Miami QB.
Iowa vs Northwestern - It's safe to say Hank Brown is the better QB and should be entrenched as the starter as long as he is healthy. This game will feature two White WRs - Reece Vander Zee for the Hawkeyes and Griffin Wilde for the Wildcats. Would like to see Iowa's defense shutdown Chip Kelly's offense this week though. Will be fun to see both defenses on the field. White friendly game.
Colorado vs Arizona St - It's fun to see Colorado struggle in the Coach "Prime" era after hitting their peak at 9-4 two years ago. LB Gideon Lampron is a fantastic LB though, should be an NFLer next year. For Arizona State it looks like Cutter Boley has fallen down the depth chart, true freshman Jake Fette looks to be starting the rest of the season (i did my research, he is White). LB Owen Long is having a strong season as well, a matchup involving two of the nations better LBs.
Louisville vs Ga Tech - QB Lincoln Kienholz is still under the radar but has been having a great season.
Michigan St vs Michigan - QB Tommy Carr seems to be the future for the Wolverines. JJ Buchanan is another great Big Ten WR. Would like to see LB Staehling and DE John Henry Daley finish the season strong for draft stock improvement. The Spartans continue their rebuilding season.
Air Force vs Army - This might be the most White friendly game of the year. It will feature triple option White QBs in Cale Hellums and Kemper Hodges who is the third string QB after injuries to both Liam Szarka and Evan Medders. Air Force has three White athletes with 400 yards rushing and three more will potentially hit that mark this season. For Army hopefully Cale Hellums gets back on track this week, he is a little over 100 yards from a 1k rushing season.
Oklahoma vs Florida - The Sooners fired their offensive coordinator so it will be interesting to see how Mateer fares and how long of a leash he has. The Oklahoma offense has been one of the more disappointing storylines this year. I'd like to see Oklahoma win just to knock an SEC team out of the top 25.
Texas St vs Oregon St - A matchup of two very good P6 QBs Brad Jackson and Braden Atkinson with one of them being a top 3 QB in the country as well. Should be an entertaining shootout.
With the season moving into November MACtion returns.
