We’ve reached the final Saturday of the 2024 college football regular season. Welcome to Rivalry Week in the Big Ten!

The rivalry games got started on Friday. Minnesota took down Wisconsin 24-7 and Iowa topped Nebraska 13-10 to get us started.

That leaves us with 8 games, including 6 conference clashes, for Saturday.

The Game headlines the early slate as FOX’s Big Noon Saturday game. Michigan has enjoyed a 3-game winning streak in the rivalry with Ohio State. If 6-5 U-M extends that streak to 4 games over 10-1 OSU, it will be one of the most stunning outcomes in the rivalry’s history. The Buckeyes are heavy favorites to improve to 11-1 and return to the B1G Championship Game.

In the afternoon window, the nonconference clash of Notre Dame at USC will be in the national spotlight on CBS. At 10-1, the Irish are No. 5 in the College Football Playoff rankings. A USC upset could shake up the rankings in a major way.

The final kickoff features a rivalry between two of the conference’s new members. Former Pac-12 foes Washington and Oregon close out the B1G action on NBC.

Here’s the Saturday slate:

  • Michigan at No. 2 Ohio State – 12:00 p.m. ET on FOX
  • No. 23 Illinois at Northwestern – 12:00 p.m. ET on Big Ten Network
  • Maryland at No. 4 Penn State – 3:30 p.m. ET on Big Ten Network
