As college football season plunges into November, conference title races are heating up and so is the push for bowl eligibility. Those aspirations will be on display on CBS Sports Network during Week 10, as the network hosts a MAC game on Tuesday and three conference clashes in a Saturday tripleheader. 

The action starts Tuesday night, when Akron hosts Ball State in a cross-division MAC showdown. The Cardinals were the preseason favorite to win their division but will need a victory to avoid falling below .500. Akron, meanwhile, is vying to win multiple league games for the first time since 2018 after knocking off Bowling Green last month.

Saturday’s slate begins at noon Eastern, when UAB and Louisiana Tech square off in a game that could get wild. The Bulldogs have been involved in several tight games this season while UAB has been unpredictably alternating between comfortable victories and blowout or upset losses during a 5-3 start. In the afternoon, Wyoming will look to get back above .500 on the season when it hosts a Colorado State team that is at risk of missing a bowl for the fourth straight season. Finally, the nightcap is a Mountain West showdown between No. 25 Fresno State and Boise State. The Bulldogs found their way to the top of the West Division by knocking off previously unbeaten San Diego State last week but will need a win over the Broncos to maintain that position.

Here is the full rundown of all the Week 10 action on CBS Sports Network with all times Eastern.

Ball State at Akron

Date: Tuesday, Nov. 2 | Time: 7 p.m.
Location: InfoCisision Stadium — Akron, Ohio
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder] 
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Spread: Ball State -20 | Will the Cardinals cover the spread? Check out SportsLine’s Week 10 college football projections here.

Storylines: Ball State and Akron will both be looking for a return to the win column when they face off on Tuesday for the first time since 2017. The Cardinals dropped a 24-17 game against Miami (Ohio) on Oct. 23 to fall to 4-4 (2-2 MAC) while Akron lost 45-10 against Buffalo and fell to 2-6 (1-3). The Zips have won the last two in the series, but those victories came under former coach Terry Bowden. The program is just 3-23 under third-year coach Tom Arth. Ball State was projected in the preseason to win the MAC West by the league’s media and coaches and a loss here would be disastrous.

Louisiana Tech at UAB 

Date: Saturday, Nov. 6 | Time: Noon
Location: Protective Stadium — Birmingham, Alabama
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder] 
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Spread: UAB -13.5 | Will the Blazers cover the spread? Check out SportsLine’s Week 10 college football projections here.

Storylines: It’s been a frustrating season for Louisiana Tech, which has lost three games by three points or less, including a 23-20 defeat at Old Dominion last week. But the Bulldogs (2-6, 1-3 C-USA) can make a statement against UAB by knocking off one of the league’s heavyweights for the second straight year. UAB (5-3, 3-1) was upset by Rice in its last game, but the Blazers are still in the running for the C-USA West title. The Bulldogs won last season’s meeting 37-34 in overtime after rallying from a 14-point deficit in the fourth quarter.

Colorado State at Wyoming

Date: Saturday, Nov. 6 | Time: 3:30 p.m.
Location: War Memorial Stadium — Laramie, Wyoming
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder] 
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Spread: Colorado State -3.5 | Will the Rams cover the spread? Check out SportsLine’s Week 10 college football projections here.

Storylines: After scoring just 38 points during a four-game losing streak, Wyoming (4-4, 0-4 Mountain West) will look to get its first league victory against a Colorado State team that has also been struggling. The Rams (3-5, 2-2) have dropped two straight after getting outscored 21-3 in the second half of a 28-19 loss to Boise State last week. Colorado State snapped a four-game losing streak in the series with a 34-24 win last season.

Boise State at No. 25 Fresno State

Date: Saturday, Nov. 6 | Time: 7 p.m.
Location: Bulldog Stadium — Fresno, California
TV: CBS Sports Network [Channel finder] 
Live stream: CBSSports.com | Mobile: CBS Sports App
Spread: Fresno State -5 | Will the Bulldogs cover the spread? Check out SportsLine’s Week 10 college football projections here.

Storylines: Three of the last five meetings between these Mountain West foes have come in league championship games, and the last three meetings were decided by a touchdown or less. The Broncos (4-4, 2-2 Mountain West) are down a bit this season under first-year coach Andy Avalos but should still provide a tough test for the high-flying No. 25 Bulldogs (7-2, 4-1). A win here would move Fresno State within two victories of a guaranteed appearance in the league title game.
