The 2024 CBS Sports Network college football schedule is officially set with notable games on deck across the Group of Five and the Power Four. It’s a loaded slate with multiple big weekday games in addition to packed Saturdays all year long.
With less than 100 days to go until the start of the season, let’s take a look at some of the best matchups on the CBS Sports Network schedule for the 2024 campaign.

Week 0 – SMU at Nevada
Saturday, Aug. 24 | 8 p.m.
This marks SMU’s official debut as a member of the ACC and our first look at whether the Mustangs can sustain the momentum they created last year after an AAC championship. They return starting QB Preston Stone, whose 2023 season ended prematurely with a broken left fibula, and eight other offensive starters. Still, there are several new additions to monitor like Oklahoma offensive line transfer Savion Byrd, Miami edge Jahfari Harvey and Texas A&M cornerback transfer Deuce Harmon. The Mustangs have found a way to reset in the portal almost every year, using it as well as anyone nationally. This will be our first peek into whether they’ve crafted a Power Five-level roster.
As for Nevada, it’s a new era! Ken Wilson never could get things going at his alma mater, going a combined 4-20 overall across two seasons. The Wolfpack hired Texas co-defensive coordinator Jeff Choate to replace him. Choate has previous head coaching experience after leading Montana State from 2016-19 in a successful run and Nevada fans are optimistic he’s the right guy to lead the program moving forward. There are also some familiar names on the Wolf Pack’s roster. There’s a decent chance former Nebraska QB Chubba Purdy — yes, Brock Purdy’s brother — is Nevada’s QB1 this year.
