The 2024 college football week 5 schedule, predictions, game previews, scoreboard, and odds

It is now really on.

Now that almost all of the fun and silly non-conference games are over, we can move on to the bigger conference battles.

Even better, we get something really cool to kick off the 2024 college football season.

This week, Georgia and Alabama are the only games that matter. However, Illinois at Penn State will be fun, Wisconsin at USC will at least be interesting, and Oklahoma State at Kansas State could be the last game in the Big 12 race.

This is the plan for Week 5 of college football. It shows when, how, and where to watch each game.
