The 2024 college football season is heating up with CBS Sports Network covering seven games in Week 7. The action kicks off on Tuesday with Liberty’s overtime win against FIU. Friday night brings Mountain West Conference action with UNLV visiting Utah State. Saturday is packed with exciting games, including potential College Football Playoff contenders Army and Boise State.

Army, under the American Athletic Conference, has emerged as a serious playoff contender. They recently scored a season-high 49 points against Tulsa and haven’t allowed more than 14 points in any game so far. UAB, led by coach Trent Dilfer, is struggling with four straight double-digit losses, including a 71-20 defeat by Tulane. Their matchup on Saturday at Michie Stadium could be a turning point for both teams. UAB needs a win to boost their confidence, while Army aims to stay undefeated in AAC play.

San Diego State and Wyoming, both trying to avoid the bottom of the Mountain West Conference, face off at War Memorial Stadium. Neither team has had a great season, and both struggle on offense. This could be a low-scoring game, making it an interesting matchup for those who like under bets.

Oregon State, playing a Mountain West-like schedule due to Pac-12 realignments, has had a great season despite their only loss to third-ranked Oregon. They’re looking to keep their momentum going against Nevada, which has only one win since late August.

No. 17 Boise State is a favorite to represent the Group of Five in the playoffs. Running back Ashton Jeanty is a Heisman contender with impressive stats in just five games. Their game against Hawaii in Honolulu could be another test for their playoff aspirations. Hawaii is still searching for their first FBS win, although they are 2-1 at home.
