There are a lot of things that make college football so great, and rivalries are certainly at or near the top of the list. If you love seeing teams with bad blood going up against one another, Saturday is a good day for you as Rivalry Week is in full swing.
Week 14, the final week of the college football regular season, sees archrivals square off in games with massive implications. In some cases, we’ve got trophies and bragging rights on the line. In others, there’s the potential for making or missing the College Football Playoff depending on the game’s result.
And then there’s The Game between Ohio State and Michigan. These two foes have no shortage of bad blood, with the Wolverines winning this matchup each of the last four years, with last year’s win in Columbus setting off a massive postgame skirmish after a Michigan player planted a team flag at midfield. That will all surely be front of mind for both sides when the 11-0 Buckeyes visit the 9-2 Wolverines, the latter of whom could punch a CFP ticket with another win in this rivalry.
The rivalry action hardly stops there, with 9-2 Vanderbilt facing 8-3 Tennessee, 8-3 Washington hosting 10-1 Oregon, and, of course, the annual Iron Bowl between 9-2 Alabama and 5-6 Auburn. All three of these games are among the more heated rivalries in the nation, and all three could drastically shake up the CFP field ahead of the final selection process.
In addition to Rivalry Week in college football, Saturday has no shortage of other action across the NBA, NHL and college basketball. Below is a snapshot of what to watch and bet on at the top sportsbooks on Saturday, Nov. 29. All times Eastern.
