NFL
Baltimore Ravens (2-2) at Indianapolis Colts (2-2), Sunday 1:00 CBS
The Colts have looked shaky at times this season, needing a last quarter meltdown from Sage Rosenfels to come away with a win over Houston last week. The Ravens defense is among one of the best in the league and with the Titans still undefeated, the Colts offense will have to wake up in order to stay in contention in the AFC South.
Dallas Cowboys (4-1) at Arizona Cardinals (3-2), Sunday 4:15 FOX
Although the Cowboys are 4-1, they have not looked particularly good in doing it. They barely beat the winless Bengals and just edged the Browns in week one. The Cardinals on the other hand have been a surprise and are fresh off a blowout win over the previously unbeaten Bills. This is definitely an upset watch.
NCAA Football
No. 5 Texas (5-0) at No. 1 Oklahoma (5-0), Saturday 12:00 ABC
The Red River Rivalry has rarely meant more than it does this week. This week's match-up between these two Top-5 teams is arguably the biggest game of the young season. Both teams have Heisman-caliber quarterbacks and have won all five games in impressive fashion. This game could have National Championship implications.
MLB
Boston Red Sox at Tampa Bay Rays, Saturday 8:07 PM FOX
Game two of the ACLS puts two of the American League's best pitchers against each other. Josh Beckett, who is always hard to beat in the playoffs, and Scott Kazmir will face off at Tropicana Field. The two teams have a surprisingly heated rivalry and this is the first time they have met in the playoffs, so anything can happen.
