Your Week 9 College Football TV Schedule

Brought to you by Golden Grain® and a watermelon.... because watching the Georgia-Florida game usually means you'll need to get blackout drunk.

Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports

Most years I don't exactly look forward to the Georgia-Florida game.  I've never had a good experience in Jacksonville and I've never seen the Dawgs win there.  Typically, what I remember about the game is the hangover I have the day after.  And it's not an "out late celebrating" hangover.

That said, there are some years I at least appreciate the buildup of "maybe this is the year."  2016 is not one of those years.  While I'd be thrilled beyond belief if I was wrong, I imagine I'm going to be highly inebriated and alternating between violent rage and openly weeping around 7 p.m. on Saturday night.  Picture a combination of the Incredible Hulk and that "very special" episode of Saved by the Bell where Jessie got hooked on caffeine pills,

Anyway...

Just because I'm no longer able to enjoy college football doesn't mean you shouldn't.  So here you go:

Your Week 9 College Football TV Schedule >>> CLICK HERE!!!

THURSDAY

Appalachian State Mountaineers @ Georgia Southern Eagles, 7:30 pm, ESPNU

One might be tempted to watch the #25 Virginia Tech Hokies and the Pittsburgh Panthers, but who can resist a gridiron battle between two behemoths of the Sun Belt?

FRIDAY

#22 Navy Midshipmen @ South Florida Bulls, 7 pm, ESPN2

As you probably know by now, I'm a sucker for watching service academy football.  And add in the bonus of a Top 25 ranking? Come on, man!  I'll be taking in this one then flipping over to the Air Force Falcons and the Fresno State Fighting Detwilers.

SATURDAY NOON

#2 Michigan Wolverines @ Michigan State Spartans, Noon, ESPN

There are some very good football teams playing in the noon slot.  The problem is they are all playing some decidedly not good football teams.  Given the in-state rivalry angle, I guess this is the best one.

SATURDAY MIDDAY

Georgia Bulldogs vs. #14 Florida Gators (Jacksonville), 3:30 pm, CBS

Why do I do this to myself? Every year. At this point, I'm basically Linus in "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". By God, there is no pumpkin patch more sincere than this one and all that ever shows up is a beagle!  Someone owes me restitution!

SATURDAY EVENING

#3 Clemson Tigers @ #12 Florida State Seminoles, 8 pm, ABC

No. Brainer.

SATURDAY LATE

Stanford Cardinal @ Arizona Wildcats, 11 pm, FS1

Are you up late feverishly writing an alcohol-infused blog post? Making some bad decisions in an open comment section? Planning out a way to flood the Atlantic and make Valdosta beach front property? Join us for a game that won't end until 3 am.

That's all for this week folks. Until next time...

GOOOO DAWGS!!!
