We’ve reached the final two weeks of the regular season and there’s still plenty to be decided. With five undefeated teams and four others with one loss, the College Football Playoff race can go in many directions. There are also conference title races coming down to the wire and more than 20 teams on the verge of bowl eligibility. Rivalry week is on the horizon and the coaching carousel has already ramped up, so we’re in for an eventful weekend of football.
Here’s what we’re watching early on Saturday:
Time: Noon | TV: ABC | Line: Miami -1 | Total: 46.5
Louisville can clinch a spot in the ACC title game with a win over Miami. The Cardinals are 9-1 but this is just the third true road game they will play all season. For Miami, it’s been another up-and-down season under Mario Cristobal. The Hurricanes had a spirited effort last week against Florida State, but lost 27-20. What will the motivation be from the Miami side this week?
In non-ranked action:
– Texas A&M 17, Abilene Christian 7

Maryland scored just before the half and is putting together another respectable drive.
The Aggies are rolling now against Abilene Christian in their first game without Jimbo Fisher. Moose Muhammad just delivered the highlight of the day for A&M.
Touchdown Louisville! It’s a big guy touchdown too, as lineman Trevonte Sylvester leaks out for an easy TD grab. The extra point is no good though, so Miami will lead at halftime.
Maryland has its first TD of the game on a Billy Edwards plunge at the goal line.
BYU’s Will Ferrin drills a 49-yard field goal to tie it up and end the half.
Louisville is on the march again and nearing Miami’s red zone. Under a minute left in the first half.
Here’s a scoreboard update with the first round of games at halftime:
We’ll be keeping an eye on all these games and more throughout the day, so stay tuned for the latest updates and scores.
