The Thunder are back home tonight to play Portland then get 4 days off before a brutal road swing starts next Monday in Sacremento.

The four teams that would earn byes at the moment would be Oregon, Texas, Miami, and Boise St. The first round matchups would feature Ohio St hosting BYU, Penn St would welcome Georgia, Indiana at home against Ole Miss. Notre Dame would be at home against Alabama.
This week’s biggest matchups include #2 Ohio St hosting #5 Indiana. #14 BYU’s at #21 Az St. #19 Army and #6 Notre Dame will meet at Yankee Stadium.
