Here’s a few of the primetime college football games to keep an eye out for this weekend.

Before we get started, let me first wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you guys are enjoying your weekend. Now that we have that out of the way, let’s take a look at the primetime schedule of college football games for this upcoming weekend. As always, all times are listed as Central. For the full list of all the games this weekend, check out this link.

What Thanksgiving night would be complete, without an SEC showdown? The 25th ranked LSU Tigers (6-4, 4-3 SEC) head to Kyle Field in College Station on Thursday night, as they face Kevin Sumlin and the 24th ranked Texas A&M Aggies. LSU’s regular season was cut short by a game, due to a non-conference game against South Alabama being cancelled to fit in a rescheduled game with Florida. Both teams are looking to improve not only their standings in the Top 25, but also to improve the status of both head coaches. ESPN has the call beginning at 6:30 P.M.

On Friday night, Conference USA takes the stage with Cincinnati traveling to Tulsa. The Golden Hurricanes are cruising through the season, with an 8-3 (5-2 CUSA) record and look to improve their standing. The Bearcats (4-7, 1-6 CUSA) however, need a win to salvage what has been a struggling season. ESPN2 will begin coverage at 7:30 P.M.

Looking ahead to a Saturday night slate of games, there is a Top 25 battle to be seen. #13 Florida will face #15 Florida State. The Seminole seniors are trying to make history, and will do so if they can knock off the Gators.

No other class in FSU history has finished off their career with an 8-0 sweep of both in-state rivals Florida and Miami. This class has done just that, and now only needs a win on Saturday to complete the sweep. But it won’t be easy. as the Gators are fifth in the country in total defense. They’re keeping opponents to under 300 yards a game, with 160 yards being limited to the air. Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee has all the action, beginning at 7:00 P.M. on ABC and the Watch ESPN app.

There is a full tilt of games on Saturday, minus a few teams including Oklahoma State and Oklahoma. They’re preparing for a pivotal Bedlam matchup next Saturday in Norman, that could possibly have playoff implications.
