The push for the College Football Playoff<\/a> is upon us.<\/p>\n

We now have an idea of how the committee is evaluating the season after the inaugural CFP rankings release on Tuesday night<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Week 11 presents us with some matchups that will help bring the playoff picture further into focus.<\/p>\n

Will we see some big upsets this week? Here’s how to watch college football in Week 11<\/a>, and here are the best games on the slate (scroll for live updates).<\/p>\n

Noon ET, ABC<\/p>\n

The Cougars are one of just four undefeated teams remaining in college football and haven\u2019t played a team as good as Texas Tech. Conversely, BYU is by far the Red Raiders\u2019 best opponent of the season. This game has huge Big 12 and CFP implications.<\/p>\n

3:30 p.m. ET, ABC<\/p>\n

The Aggies are tied with Alabama atop the SEC at 5-0 and could still take another step toward earning a spot in the SEC title game with a win Saturday. The task could be easier than it looked against Missouri with true freshman QB Matt Zollers making his first career start for the Tigers.<\/p>\n

3:30 p.m. ET, CBS<\/p>\n

The Hawkeyes were a relatively surprising inclusion in the first set of CFP rankings. Oregon, meanwhile, was three spots lower than it is in the AP poll, likely due to a lack of quality wins so far. The Ducks haven\u2019t beaten a ranked team yet, but they can help change the committee\u2019s perception on Saturday.<\/p>\n

7:30 p.m. ET, ABC<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the Tigers\u2019 first game under interim coach Frank Wilson after the firing of Brian Kelly. Can an LSU offense that has failed to live up to expectations keep up with Alabama\u2019s and not turn the ball over? If not, Alabama will continue its march toward the SEC title game.<\/p>\n

The Red Raiders moved backwards after the turnover and had to settle for a 47-yard field goal. It’s been an inauspicious start for the two teams.<\/p>\n

Texas Tech 3, BYU 0<\/p>\n

The Cougars had forced a quick three-and-out of their own, but BYU’s returner muffed the ensuing punt and the Red Raiders fell on it.<\/p>\n

Tech now has it inside the red zone.<\/p>\n

Sat, November 8, 2025 at 12:14 PM EST<\/p>\n

We asked industry insiders why so many hires go so spectacularly wrong and whether the mountain of buyout cash schools have committed to spending this year \u2014 including Penn State\u2019s $49 million to James Franklin, LSU\u2019s $54 million to Brian Kelly and Florida\u2019s $21 to Billy Napier \u2014 will prompt a rethink in how schools evaluate coaches and hand out contracts in the player compensation era.<\/p>\n
