In the season's home stretch and just weeks away from rivalry weekend, then conference championships and bowl selection weekend. Woohoo!!!! This week, we've got some broccoli games and some nice, sweet chocolate cake.

First, big heaping helpings of vegetables:
Northwestern at Minnesota (11 a.m., ESPN2): Will determine bowl selection.
West Virginia at UConn (11 a.m., ESPN Gameplan): The Big East is a mess, no question. This one will (hopefully) provide some distance for one of these teams at the top.
Miami at Virginia (11 a.m., ESPN Gameplan): One of those "Who's going to show up?" games.
Tulsa at Arkansas (1 p.m., ESPN Gameplan): The Golden Hurricane is easily the Conference USA favorite, and they could score some national ranking points by knocking off an SEC team. A weak one, but still the SEC.
Pitt at Notre Dame (1:30 p.m., NBC): Another Big East decider.
Clemson at Boston College (2:30 p.m., ESPNU): With some luck, BC could back its way into the ACC Championship game.

Now for something sweeter:
Florida at Georgia (2:30 p.m., CBS): Yum. The Gators would like to provide some payback for last year's rush-the-field moment.
Florida State-Georgia Tech (2:30 p.m., ABC/ESPN/Gameplan): Georgia Tech challenging for ACC Coastal title would have been laughable four months ago.
Oregon at Cal (2:30 p.m., ABC/ESPN Gameplan): Pure entertainment, with a good chance to muddy up the Pac 10 waters.
Texas at Texas Tech (7 p.m., ABC): Will the Longhorns have a game the rest of the season that isn't considered "Most Critical Game Ever"?

Or, if you prefer cupcakes:
Air Force at Army (11 a.m., ESPNU): Pity poor Army.
Wisconsin at Michigan State (11 a.m., ESPN): Spartans hope to toss off past seasons' collapse demons.
Kansas State at Kansas (11:30 a.m., FSN): Jayhawks need a win.
Washington at USC (5:30 p.m., FSN): Yikes.
Tennessee at South Carolina (6 p.m., ESPN2): Disappointment meets disappointment.
Nebraska at Oklahoma (7 p.m., ESPN): Rebuilding Nebraska meets a must-win Oklahoma.
Arizona State at Oregon State (9:15 p.m., FSN): I'm convinced that the Sun Devils are better than their record says, while the Beavers are worse than theirs does.
