Carla and Crappy Show: The Celebrity Guest Picker Edition

It’s Week 11 of the college football season … and nothing makes sense.

Sure, MACtion is back, and we’re as excited about it as ever. And yes, the Big 12 looks like it’s definitely going to enjoy a potential buffet this weekend.

So why, then, is Carla wearing a “Yay Feetball” sweatshirt during the week when she hates college football? What was Penn State’s fourth-quarter goal-line play calling all about? What happened to Clemson? And Texas A&M? And Pitt? And Wisconsin?

Well, friends, we don’t have answers for everything. But we can provide some hope.

And that is, in the midst of all the chaos, the Carla and Crappy Show has finally made the big time. Carla will be the “celebrity” guest picker on Blue Raider Extra Point this weekend, live from the Grove on MTSU’s campus in Murfreesboro prior to the Liberty game. (Right now, the stream is scheduled to begin at 9 ET Saturday morning and will be available on the True Blue TV app on your streaming device or the MTN Sports YouTube channel. We’ll update as we get more details.)

To celebrate, we break down the entirety of the CUSA slate (so that Carla has good notes to take with her), which includes Kennesaw State at UTEP (4 ET, ESPN+), Jacksonville State at Louisiana Tech (4:30 ET, CBSSN), Western Kentucky at New Mexico State (6 ET, ESPN+), and of course, Liberty at MTSU (1 ET, CBSSN). 

But also? We now have Carla and Crappy Show merch. Carla needed something branded to wear on the show, which AJ was all about creating. This means that, yes, friends, very soon, you too will have the ability to have your very own Yay Feetball shirt (once we figure out how to get the shop set up). Stay tuned to carlacrappyshow.com (which is also a thing that works now!) for more details.

And then, oh yeah, right, we still have games to discuss. A lot of games. 

After we break down the initial College Football Playoff rankings (because those, ahem, also happened on Tuesday), AJ gives us a slightly abbreviated #GroupOfFiveAfterDark report, which still includes some dandies: Arkansas State at Louisiana (5 ET, ESPN+), No. 25 Army at North Texas (3:30 ET, ESPN2), and UNLV at Hawaii (9 ET, CBSSN) to name a few.

The big boy slate is pretty stellar as well:

No. 3 Georgia at No. 16 Ole Miss (3:30 ET, ABC): No consensus here. This game is loaded with mystery and huge conference implications.

Michigan at No. 8 Indiana (3:30 ET, CBS): Ten Win-diana? Yeppers. And at least one of us thinks it will be a statement win, too.

South Carolina at Vanderbilt (4:15 ET, SECN): Uh oh. The Gamecocks letdown game is in Nashville. Diego, are you ready? (We think it’s possible.)

No. 11 Alabama at No. 15 LSU (7:30 ET, ABC): With Saban no longer on the sideline, can Bama keep its Bedlam-esque streak alive? In Death Valley? Or do we see a purple Brian Kelly?

Washington at No. 6 Penn State (8 ET, Peacock): The forecast calls for a whiteout in Happy Valley. Welcome to the Big Ten, Huskies? We’ll see.

We wrap things up with a quick edition of How Will the Big 12 Eat Itself This Week? (still not trademarked), which features some prime buffet options, including No. 20 Colorado at Texas Tech (4 ET, FOX) and No. 9 BYU at Utah (10:15 ET, ESPN). Also, Crappy has his eye on Purdue at No. 2 Ohio State (Big Nude, FOX), and AJ and Carla are extremely vested in Robert Morris at Duquesne (Noon ET, radio only).

So, there you have it. Nothing makes sense. But we’re hoping we can provide you a bit of levity and hope in the chaos, both in college football and … well, you know. Enjoy the games this weekend, watch Carla on Saturday morning, and we’ll see you back here next week. Cheers, yinz.
