Week 7 of the college football season brings another big weekend of action to CBS Sports Network as mid-October arrives with races for bowl eligibility and league titles heating up. Five games will be featured on the network over two days, beginning on Friday night and continuing through a four-game ticket that will extend deep into the night on Saturday.
Up first is a Conference USA showdown between UTSA and Florida International on Friday night as the Roadrunners look to build on a 2-0 start to league play on the road against the Golden Panthers. Then, on Saturday, the action gets going as Army tries to get right in a game against FCS foe Colgate. The Black Knights are off to a 1-4 start and need to start accumulating victories to achieve bowl eligibility. In the afternoon, MAC foes Ohio and Western Michigan will square off as both teams try and get to 2-1 in league play.
Finally, the last two games on Saturday will take fans to the Mountain West, where positioning in the league standings is at stake. Colorado State will host Utah State in the evening’s first game in a battle between teams who picked up narrow conference wins last week. Then, in the late window, Air Force and UNLV will cap the weekend with a battle between 4-2 teams.
Here is the full rundown of all the Week 7 action on CBS Sports Network. All times Eastern.
UTSA at FIU
Date: Friday, Oct. 14 | Time: 8 p.m.
Location: Riccardo Silva Stadium — Miami, Florida
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder]
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Spread: UTSA -33.5 | Will the Roadrunners cover? Check out SportsLine’s Week 7 projections
Storylines: With a 2-2 record, FIU has already won more games under first-year coach Mike MacIntyre this season than it did in the last two seasons combined. The Golden Panthers will have their work cut out for them against UTSA, though. The Roadrunners improved to 4-2 (2-2 Conference USA) with a 31-28 win over Western Kentucky last week. FIU leads the series 2-1 with all three meetings coming since the two became conference foes in 2014.
Colgate at Army
Date: Saturday, Oct. 15 | Time: 12 p.m.
Location: Michie Stadium — West Point, New York
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder]
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Storylines: Army is off to a 1-4 start for the first time since 2015, but the Black Knights could still reach bowl eligibility for the sixth time in the past seven seasons if they turn things on soon. Playing Colgate presents a good opportunity to get things back on track as the Raiders enter with just a 1-4 record. Colgate played one FBS team already this season, dropping a 41-10 decision at Stanford in Week 1.
Ohio at Western Michigan
Date: Saturday, Oct. 15 | Time: 3:30 p.m.
Location: Waldo Stadium — Kalamazoo, Michigan
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder]
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Spread: Ohio -1.5 | Will the Bobcats cover? Check out SportsLine’s Week projections
Storylines: Western Michigan has finished .500 or better in each of Tim Lester’s first five seasons on the job. After a 2-4 start, however, the Broncos need to start piling up some wins if they are going to reach bowl eligibility in 2022. Ohio is 3-3 under second-year coach Tim Albin and coming off a 55-34 victory against Akron last week in which the Bobcats racked up 561 yards.
Utah State at Colorado State
Date: Saturday, Oct. 15 | Time: 7 p.m.
Location: Canvas Stadium — Fort Collins, Colorado
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder]
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Spread: Utah State -11 | Will the Aggies cover? Check out SportsLine’s Week projections
Storylines: With veteran quarterback Logan Bonner done for the season due to a broken foot, Utah State has turned to redshirt junior Cooper Legas, who threw for two touchdowns and ran for another last week in a big win over Air Force. Colorado State just picked up its first victory under first-year coach Jay Norvell as the Rams squeaked past Norvell’s old school, Nevada, for a Mountain West win last week.
Air Force at UNLV
Date: Saturday, Oct. 15 | Time: 10:30 p.m.
Location: Allegiant Stadium — Paradise, Nevada
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder]
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Spread: Air Force -10 | Will the Falcons cover? Check out SportsLine’s Week projections
Storylines: The Falcons are looking to get back on track after a 34-27 loss at Utah State last week. Air Force has won four straight and nine of its past 11 against UNLV. However, the Runnin’ Rebels are much-improved under third-year coach Marcus Arroyo. A 40-7 loss at San Jose State last week marked a setback, but with a 4-2 record at the season’s midway point, UNLV has a shot to reach bowl eligibility for the first time since 2013.
