And if you're a fan of FBS football, here are a few others that could be really good:
6:00 PM - #13 Auburn (1-0) at #3 Clemson (1-0) - ESPN
6:30 PM - #5 Oklahoma (1-0) at #2 Ohio State (1-0) - ABC
6:30 PM - #15 Georgia (1-0) at #24 Notre Dame (1-0) - NBC

Although, many of these are going on at the same time as our game, so I plan on maybe having our game up on the computer with one of the national games on the TV.

I don't think beating Bowling Green was a surprise. I thought BGSU would take it by a FG because of "home cooking" from the refs, but for me, the biggest surprise was that USD blew open a big lead and pretty much held on to it the whole time. The margin was a surprise for me, not so much the win though. BGSU is a bad MAC team and USD is a decent MVFC team.
