College football schedule: What games are on today? Teams, TV schedule, announcers for Week 9

2023-10-28 23:53

The Week 9 slate of the 2023 college football season is upon us. You have some games to watch. Here are the matchups, start times, announcers and TV schedules for every game on Saturday, Oct. 28.

With Week 9 already here, this is when the college football season starts to get really interesting. As the weather starts to turn across the entire country, more and more teams are seeing their playoff dreams fall to the wayside. Upsets are part of the game, and one of the very best parts of it. On any given Saturday, anybody can beat anyone. Once again, there are no boring weeks in college football.

The signature game of the weekend will be out in Salt Lake City, as the No. 13 Utah Utes will host the No. 8 Oregon Ducks in a clash of Pac-12 titans. The winner of this game could emerge as the most formidable challenger to the Washington Huskies in the conference. As far as the loser is concerned, a second loss on the season will eliminate them from serious College Football Playoff conversations.

Of course, there are a few other games of note on tap this weekend. No. 6 Oklahoma at Kansas is probably your best game in the first window of the day. If you are not down with Pac-12 football for any reason, you can enjoy the shenanigans down in Jacksonville, as No. 1 Georgia faces arch rival Florida in the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. That game never disappoints, so buckle up!

For those still trying to plan the Saturday viewing schedule, this is the menu for the Week 9 slate.
