Here are the TV times, networks and streaming opportunities for all FBS games Thursday-Saturday. All times are EDT.
There are 16 games that feature teams in the Top 25, including four head-to-head matchups: No. 6 Oklahoma State at home against No. 17 Iowa State, No. 9 Cincinnati at No. 16 SMU, No. 14 North Carolina at home against No. 23 North Carolina State and No. 18 Michigan at No. 21 Minnesota.
Again this week, all schedules are subject to change because of the coronavirus pandemic. The Big Ten and the Mountain West will begin play this week after a long delay, and already one of the Mountain West games was called off.
On Tuesday, the game between Colorado State and New Mexico State in Fort Collins, Colo., was deemed a no contest and canceled. The Mountain West made the decision because New Mexico was prohibited by state guidelines in its state from playing because of “the prevalence of the COVID-19 virus” in the county in which the university is located.
