College football schedule: What Big Ten games are on today ...

Are you ready to watch Jedd Fisch and the Washington Huskies take on Dan Lanning and the top-ranked Oregon Ducks? If so, you’re in the right place and paying attention at the right time. It’s rivalry week in the Big Ten and the longstanding, Pacific Northwest rivalry between the Huskies and Ducks has now made its way into what is traditionally a Midwest college football conference.

The Big Ten now gets to see what a game between Oregon and Washington can look like. And that’s going to be interesting. 

But, that isn’t the only college football game happening this weekend. It’s rivalry week and there are plenty of high profile college football games scheduled up for today all across the Big Ten, which is now a conference that is big enough to span coast to coast.

We’ve got a couple of games that happened on Friday, but we’re not here to talk about the matchups between Minnesota and Wisconsin or Iowa and Nebraska. Instead, let’s go over the Saturday slate of games for the Big Ten.

Here's the complete Saturday schedule for the Big Ten for Week 14 (all times Pacific):

There’s a lot going on. We’ve got the classic, high profile matchup between the Wolverines and Buckeyes to get us started. At the same time, Bret Bielema’s overachieving Illinois team will meet up with Northwestern.

At 12:30, Maryland and Penn State will face off in Happy Valley. At the same time, Rutgers and Michigan State will get underway in East Lansing while Fresno State and UCLA meet up in Pasadena. Notre Dame and USC will also face off starting at 12:30.

Purdue and Indiana will get started at 4:00, just 30 minutes before we see Fisch and the Huskies try to upend Lanning and the Ducks.
