The Spun’s 2020 College Football Staff Picks: Week 11

This week has been more negatively impacted by COVID-19 than any other so far. A huge chunk of the SEC slate, including the rivalry game between Alabama and LSU, has been postponed, leaving something of a light College Football Saturday this weekend.

Texas A&M at Tennessee, Georgia at Mizzou, and Auburn at Mississippi State are all postponed as well. Ohio State at Maryland has been canceled, as is the case with Big Ten games this year due to their tight schedule. A few Group of Five games, including Memphis at Navy, are also being pushed off.

We do have some big games, even with those cancellations. On Friday night, No. 7 Cincinnati will attempt to stay undefeated, against a big underdog in ECU. In the Big Ten, Penn State and Nebraska each look to pick up their first wins of the year. No. 2 Notre Dame hopes to avoid a letdown game at Boston College.

The Pac-12 enters its second week of play, with Washington vs. Oregon State, UCLA vs. Utah, No. 11 Oregon at Washington State, and other games.
