Then, Thanksgiving rolls around, and while the turkey's in the oven, you've got two games to feast on. But the real action starts Black Friday, where the football gods bless us with 15 games. We're talking epic rivalries like Nebraska vs. Iowa and Georgia Tech vs. Georgia. It's the kind of stuff that makes leftovers taste even better.
Now, Saturday is when some of the heavy hitters take the field. Michigan-Ohio State? Check. Florida-Florida State? Oh, you know it. And, of course, the Iron Bowl — because no Rivalry Week is complete without Auburn and Alabama duking it out. Sprinkle in classics like Texas-Texas A&M and Notre Dame-USC, and you've got a buffet of gridiron greatness.
If that's not enough, the FCS Playoffs also start this weekend, with eight first-round matchups kicking off on Saturday.
Bottom line? This week isn't just about leftovers and holiday shopping. It's about planting yourself on the couch, yelling at the TV, and witnessing college football at its absolute peak. Find the full schedule and learn where to get watching below.
