Every Wednesday I put out a four-deep of the available games from the early kickoff to whatever the west coast has after dark. The order is based on a combination of strength of teams playing, the matchup, and personal preference. Yes, that last one means Nebraska carries a lot of weight, but not all of it.

And now a massive week for college football!

A number of games were closer than expected last week, but this week is all about matchups of titans. There are six games which feature both teams being ranked, including the top-10 matchup of No. 6 Ohio State at No. 9 Notre Dame.

Good luck staying on one channel in the midafternoon Saturday because each game holds a ton of intrigue. Actually, that's the case for each timeslot except for the late night, but that isn't on the Pac-12, which has 10 teams featured across from starter to reserve.

Unfortunately for Nebraska, the stacked midafternoon timeslot means the Huskers' home tilt with Louisiana Tech keeps them off the four-deep for a second consecutive week.
