Today’s college football schedule: Times, TV channels, live streams to watch Thursday night NCAA games

College football returned with its usual flair on Saturday as Georgia Tech defeated No. 10 Florida State to begin the 2024 season with a thrilling performance.

Now there’s a full schedule for Week 1, which begins Thursday, with 21 games on the schedule to kick off a four-day college football extravaganza.

Four ranked teams – No. 11 Missouri, No. 12 Utah, No. 22 Kansas and No. 24 NC State – take center stage Thursday. Expectations are high for all four teams, especially the Tigers, who are riding high after an 11-win season and a win in the 2023 Cotton Bowl.

Superstars and fanfare await in Boulder, Colorado, where Deion Sanders begins his second season as coach of the Buffaloes. Quarterback Shedeur Sanders and two-time All-American Travis Hunter enter their respective Heisman Trophy bids against FCS opponent North Dakota State.

There is also a Power Four duel on Thursday, with Minnesota hosting North Carolina in a Big Ten-ACC duel.

Sporting News covers the entire Thursday schedule and offers a full schedule with TV and live stream information on all games.
