Off for Thanksgiving

I will be off for the next 3 days, as I'm heading to San Angelo, Texas for Thanksgiving with my family. I will be back Monday to recap all the week's games.

Here's a quick preview before I go:

Turkey Day
Denver at Dallas (3:15 CBS)

This is an important game for Dallas. New York is playing Seattle on Sunday, a potential loss for the Giants as the Seahawks can wrap up a playoff spot with a win. Dallas can put some pressure on the Giants with a win.

It won't be easy, however, as Denver is shaping up to be a playoff favorite in the AFC.

Turkey Day +1
Texas at Texas A&M (11:00 PM ABC)

A&M would like nothing more than to spoil the Longhorns' Rose Bowl aspirations anyway, but A&M also needs this game to become bowl eligible. Still, 10 other teams have wanted to kill the Rose Bowl aspirations of Texas and Vince Young has killed 'em, every time.

Nebraska at Colorado (2:30 PM ABC)
If Colorado wins, they are the Big 12 Champs. If not, there's a huge mess to determine who plays Texas.

Saturday
Oklahoma at Oklahoma State (2:30 PM ABC)

Even with nothing to play for, the Bedlam Game is always a fun one to watch.

Sunday
St. Louis at Houston (12:00 PM Fox)

Speaking of nothing to play for, this game is like the turkey leftovers you've been trying to finish off for the last 3 days.

Happy Thanksgiving.
