Never let your guard down.

Now that we’ve entered into November (or ... NovemBERT, as it were), we can start asking both some big and little picture questions like:

• What do we think of Texas A&M unexpectedly landing at No. 4 in the first College Football Playoff rankings, behind No. 1 Alabama, No. 2 Clemson, and No. 3 Michigan?

• What will decide LSU-Alabama and do we dare go against Da Coach O’s Interim Magic?

• Can Nebraska score enough points to keep up with Ohio State, even with the Buckeyes struggling to generate bigger plays?

• Will either Wisconsin or Northwestern hit 20 points?

• Is Kansas State quietly becoming a team nobody wants to play, including Oklahoma State this weekend in Manhattan?

• After scoring only three points vs Auburn, can the magic of NovemBERT show itself against Florida, a good team who probably hasn’t seen an offense with the ceiling of Arkansas’s?

• Can a suddenly dangerous Penn State offense overcome Iowa’s ability to limit big plays?

... and much more!
