As the calendar flips to November, the Big Ten on CBS features some of college football's most notable games Getty Images
A huge part of the 2024 college football season is 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. 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.
After suffering another brutal loss to No. 1 Oregon on CBS, Michigan returns to the network in Week 11 on Saturday, Nov. 9 as the Wolverines face another stiff test in the form of Indiana. This game would barely get a second look in past seasons, but as the Hoosiers surge this season in the first year of the Curt Cignetti era, this showdown has become must-watch.
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
