A curious weekend is on tap in the college football schedule.
A host of AP Top 25 games shape up like blowouts, just like the Labor Day weekend that saw ranked teams go 24-1. That one was a thriller, too: No. 24 Louisville lost to No. 9 Mississippi but stayed in the poll while No. 16 Michigan fell out after the Hail Mary controversy.
Is more of that on tap? Probably so.
