Friday, 7 pm: Illinois at Indiana (FS1) - Bert is road trippin’ on a Friday night to kick us off right. Clickovers to Western Michigan at Michigan State (ESPN2) and Temple at Duke (ACCN).

9 pm: TCU at Colorado (ESPN) - Bonus Sark After Dark night in Boulder!

Saturday, 11 am: North Carolina … at (?!) … Appalachian State (ESPNU) - Did Mack Brown think this was Euro soccer, where the home team is listed first, when he scheduled this one? Clickovers to Colorado State at Michigan (ABC), NC State at East Carolina (ESPN) and Rutgers at Boston College (ACCN).

2:30 pm: Georgia vs. Oregon (ABC) - Can Bo Nix bring his special brand of chaos to the Benz? If not, Cincinnati at Arkansas (ESPN) provides a quality alternative. Clickovers to Houston at UTSA (CBSSN) and North Dakota at Nebraska (BTN) juuuuust in case there’s some jet lag in Lincoln.

6:30 pm: Notre Dame at Ohio State (ABC) - Where they definitely won’t spend way too much time talking about the new-look Irish. Once the Buckeye beatdown begins, Utah at Florida (ESPN) is super interesting. Clickover to SMU at North Texas (CBSSN).

Monday, 7 pm: Clemson at Georgia Tech (ESPN) - We wish we could find a ray of hope for Geoff Collins’ Jackets to keep this one interesting in such a spotlight. Maybe his QB has figured things out a little? Best we can do.
