Terrence I would really like to watch Georgia vs Alabama however My #1 early evening game is Illinois at Penn State on Peacock Network (NBC).

Do U live in the SouthEast States?
If that’s why UGA vs UAL is the biggest, I respect that.

I live in the West, Mountain Standard time, even though I’m constricted to a Pacific Time zone State.

I.M.O.,
20 OSU @ 23 KSU =s the most important one.
Whichever 1 wins, =s back in the chase for a new B16g12 Playoff spot after UUtah if they keep winning vs UAZ & their PAC12 tradition.

I am going to be watching almost all Big Ten games with exception of one in late evening.

Washington at Rutgers Friday Evening FOX

Minnesota at Michigan Noon FOX

Wisconsin at USC 3:30PM CBS

Illinois at Penn State 7:30PM NBC

Arizona at Utah 10:15PM ESPN

Do y’all not have YouTube tv? Just solve this “I’m choosing this game” conundrum with the all powerful multiview.

You Tube TV does have ESPN, BTN, CBSSN & yes they do have Over The Air stations that you are able to enjoy College Football.
