ESPN’s College Football Games For Week 13 Including Announcing Assignments

We have the Week 13 college football schedule for the ESPN family of networks for what will be the last full week of games. While next week will have some games, many will be Conference Championship games. But we’ll get to that next week.

This is what we have for Week 13 on the ESPN platforms.

Showdown Saturday: Top Rivalries, Last Two Unbeatens, Three Games between Ranked Squads, No. 1 Notre Dame Playing for BCS Title Slot

“Showdown Saturday” will include 16 of the teams in the BCS Standings across ESPN networks, top rivalries, the last two undefeated programs, matchups between ranked teams, Notre Dame competing for a spot in the BCS National Championship and more. Highlights for Saturday, Nov. 24:

  • An ABC tripleheader of three of the nation’s top rivalries includes two unbeaten teams and a showdown between two top 10 teams, each with one loss:
    • Undefeated Ohio State will host rival No. 19 Michigan at noon ET. It marks the 109th meeting between the programs, and 95th straight, with Ohio State winning 8 of the past 10. Michigan won last year 40-34.
