If you hadn't noticed, there are a number of boxes with discounted prices right now right here as the first wave of Blowout Cards' Black November sales is here

Many of the discounts were dramatic enough that Buzz once again had to ponder the possibilities in many of the boxes and cases -- and here are five that caught this collector’s eye ... and there's far more that just might suit your tastes in the big sale.

SCHOOL COLORS & MORE
2022 Bowman's Best University Football Hobby
It might be the season talking, but this box jumped out at me among the sales ranks as it's relatively new, includes a bunch of stars playing on Saturdays (thanks to NIL deals they're in here) and some notables who are now playing on Sundays right now, too. There are two Chrome autos per box here as well as quite a bit of insert and parallel potential, too, without breaking the bank. Sure, with a deeper checklist and names who won't be pros until later, there will be some leaner boxes than others -- like anything, really -- but with full logos, NIL guys, Chrome and parallels this one might have a shelf life a little longer than others in terms of popular players emerging on the fields and on collectors' minds. Among autos here? The last two Heisman Trophy winners, Bryce Young and Caleb Williams, along with Jordan Addison, Anthony Richardson, Jahmyr Gibbs, Heisman favorite J.J. McCarthy, Bo Nix, Jordan Addison, C.J. Stroud and more ... and there are multi-player autos to find, too.

Keep reading for a few more boxes you should consider (and are likely to end up in Buzz's cart).

RED-HOT RIGHT NOW 
The Item: Elly De La Cruz 2022 Bowman Heritage Chrome Red Refractor auto (/5)
The Price: $4,000 Buy-It-Now (or best offer)
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: The new arrival in MLB is just two games into his big-league career but his combination of speed and power -- and his worthiness to don Eric Davis' No. 44 (another speed and power guy there) in Cincinnati -- is getting the spotlight. He's already got a double, a triple and a homer along with three runs and two RBI while hitting .429 after two games. His Rookie Cards won't appear until 2024 releases -- he missed the deadline so his first Topps Now cards carry "call-up" labels -- but he's got plenty of cardboard. He's pushing 700 different card appearances in prospect releases with cards since 2021 and more than 200 of those are autographs, too. This one comes from the delayed Bowman Heritage but is arguably the right color for max appeal. I don't think that price will get met but it could ... he's a top talent that will be talked about until he comes back to reality. Well, if ... he hit .298 with 71 doubles, 22 triples, 49 homers, 190 RBI and 71 stolen bases in 263 MiLB games over four seasons. Baseball America had him ranked No. 8 in all of MiLB entering this season and he was also a top-10 guy via MLB and Baseball Prospectus rankings.
