Weekend Sports
This World Series is serious. The Los Angeles Dodgers and Houston Astros are tied at a game apiece with the best-of-seven moving to Houston for three games, beginning Friday night. Home runs have been jumping off bats, bullpens have been tested and there are three nights of fun coming up.
You’ll be able to watch the Series Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights on Fox at 8 p.m. ET. That trifecta is the crown jewel of the Weekend TV Six-Pack. And now that we’ve popped the top, get set to place your heiner in the recliner for some other serious viewing.
There’s so much good college football that it’s hard to know where to look for a second game. The first is easy: No. 2 Penn State (7-0) at No. 6 Ohio State (6-1). Both are 4-0 in the Big Ten; OSU cannot afford another loss and still hope to make the College Football Playoff. You’ll be watching this at 3:30 p.m. Saturday on Fox.
There’s quite a logjam at 3:30, so you have choices if the best game of the day turns out not to be the best game of the day. Ain’t that nice? No. 3 Georgia (7-0) and Florida (3-3) get together for their annual battle in Jacksonville, Fla. (CBS) and No. 14 N.C. State (6-1) visits No. 9 Notre Dame (6-1), that one on NBC.
NASCAR’s round-of-eight playoff begins at Martinsville on Sunday at 3 p.m. (NBC Sports Network). Martin Truex Jr. is the points leader.
And your best NFL bet on Sunday (check local listings) is the Dallas Cowboys (3-3) taking on their longtime rivals, the Washington Redskins (3-3) at 4:25 p.m. on Fox. You never know when the NFL’s suspension of Dallas running back Ezekiel Elliott might take effect, so get a look at him now.
Will that keep you busy? Thought so.
