Some fun Tuesday night MACtion kicked this week off, but the other weekday games are, well, unexciting. That’s OK, because games that are unexciting on paper are usually good for wild and/or hilarious moments. And Saturday’s good anyway.
How will you watch Week 12 college football without this TV/streaming guide? How?
Below, the big weekend’s full schedule, with what to watch in each time slot.


There are six ranked vs. ranked matchups on Saturday, including two between teams in the top 10. We’re late enough in the season now that boatloads of games have Playoff implications, and all five remaining undefeateds play on the day (including two against ranked opponents).
Things really start to get busy as we hit the middle of the day, with four ranked vs. ranked games in one time slot. Get your back buttons ready on your remote. It’s going to be a busy day for your thumbs.
The full schedule for the weekend is below, complete with where to watch on your TV or favorite streaming device. For more coverage on a specific team, click on the school’s name to be directed to our team blog.

South Florida’s fresh off a demolition of Temple, and the Bulls are actually playing well!

Follow stuff live!
Just keep this Twitter list open for constant updates from around the country, with possibly several jokes and GIFs. Included here are sites for every power conference team and non-power FBS conference, plus lots of fun people watching along with you.
Early shift
Best option: No. 17 North Carolina at Virginia Tech, ESPN
Spread: North Carolina -6.5
North Carolina’s playing just about as well as anybody, but Blacksburg has been a pesky place for ranked teams before. Does Beamer have one last trick up his sleeve in his last home game?
Plan B: No. 21 Memphis at Temple, ESPNU
Michigan-Penn State has bigger stakes, but this one pits a good offense against a good defense, with some potential stakes of its own.
Middle shift
Best option: No. 9 Michigan State at No. 3 Ohio State, ABC
Spread: Ohio State -13.5
It’s elimination season! This is one of four ranked vs. ranked games in this time slot, but the only one between two true Playoff contenders. Expect the Buckeyes to roll.
Plan B: No. 15 LSU at No. 22 Ole Miss, CBS
Les Miles is apparently coaching for his job, so expect some sorcery.
Keep in mind: No. 24 USC at No. 23 Oregon, ESPN
These two haven’t played since 2012, when Lane Kiffin and Chip Kelly were the coaches. That game ended 62-51 Ducks, the third straight meeting in which both scored at least 32 points.
In case of emergency: No. 20 Northwestern at No. 25 Wisconsin, Big Ten Network
Hey, they’re ranked, technically! And they’re playing on television!
Late shift
Best option: No. 10 Baylor at No. 6 Oklahoma State, FOX
Spread: Even
Another Playoff eliminator! The Cowboys are still undefeated, while the Bears are looking to get back on track.
Plan B: No. 18 TCU at No. 7 Oklahoma, ABC
TCU continues to mysteriously tumble in the rankings. Would a win by Oklahoma even impress the committee that much?
BONUS ROUND: Super late shift
Best option: Cal at No. 11 Stanford, ESPN
Spread: Stanford -11
Stanford still has an outside Playoff shot with a season-ending date with Notre Dame, but first there’s The Big Game.
Plan B: Colorado at Washington State, ESPN2
Washington State is fun now!
