The key match-up for the Pac-12 is new division foes meeting in the first Pac-12 South game. The Utah Utes travel to Los Angeles to take on the ethically challenged program of the USC Trojans at 7:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. PT on Versus.
Here's a full schedule for all the college football action for Week 2 on Saturday. More big games highlighted after the jump.
Early games
The first big college football game for Week 2 is Iowa vs. Iowa St. This is a huge traditional rivalry between the Hawkeyes and Cyclones. This one hits home for me since my wife is a Hawkeye while her brother and nephew went to Iowa State. The game starts at 12:00 p.m. ET / 9:00 a.m. PT on Fox Sports Regional stations (FSN AZ locally).
For Pac-12 action, you can watch Oregon State at Wisconsin on ESPN 2 for an early match up. Don't expect much from this one though, the Beavers are a 20.5 point underdog to the Badgers.
