Texas, Florida and USC all meet their "toughest remaining tests" en route to division and conference championships, respectively, in Oklahoma State, Georgia and Oregon, all away from home. If the 'Horns, Gators and Trojans get out of those harrowing meetings today, the sailing is relatively smooth through November. But assuming all three will make it out of the dark and back home in one piece is only setting yourself up for a trick.

What: Game day live blog. All games in play, all comments welcome and all colors accepted.
When: First kick at noon Eastern; chat kicks roughly simultaneously. The blog will run throughout the day, through the primetime tilts -- and no midnight-oil offerings from the West Coast this week, so you can guard the porch from the Halloween hordes.
Who: You and all your rowdy friends. Come loud, proud and creatively dressed. (If you're not the costume type, there better be candy.)
How: Hit "Watch Now," enter comments into the available box and do your part to accelerate the slow, agonizing death of conventional journalism.
Why: Because lobbing snarky barbs at earnest adolescents never gets old, especially when it's the only way to get through a dog of a noon slate. Football!
