The start of the 2024 college football season has arrived, so it's time to start getting your Saturdays planned out for the fall. A huge piece of the 2024 season will be the full debut of the Big Ten on CBS as the conference moves into the iconic broadcast spot at 3:30 p.m. ET at a time when the league has, literally, never been bigger.
Moving into Week 3, CBS Sports will present its second doubleheader of the season as Notre Dame battles Purdue at 3:30 p.m. before Colorado and Colorado State clash in their annual rivalry tilt at 7:30 p.m. Looking ahead to Week 4, CBS Sports will be home to one of the most anticipated Big Ten showdowns of the season as league newcomer USC travels to Michigan.
In total, the CBS Sports college football schedule includes five different doubleheaders and three prime-time games, the last of which will be CBS's inaugural broadcast of the Big Ten Championship Game on Dec. 7 at 8 p.m from Indianapolis.
Some of the mainstays from CBS's traditional schedule remain, including a spotlight on the service academies with Navy at Air Force (Oct. 5), Air Force at Army (Nov. 2) and the Army-Navy Game (Dec. 14). CBS will wrap up the college football season by airing the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl on Dec. 30.
Those selections, and the rest of the yet-to-be-determined matchups in the schedule below, will be announced six to 12 days in advance of the games
