Buffalo vs. Kent State: Momentum vs. Desperation

College football fans are in for a treat this Week 3 with three exciting games airing on CBS Sports Network. The action kicks off with Buffalo vs. Kent State, a matchup that could be a nail-biter.

  • Buffalo is on a roll, aiming to extend its winning streak to five games, including four straight from last season.
  • Kent State is looking to break its losing streak, which has lasted since November 2022.

It's a clash of momentum versus desperation.

SMU vs. Missouri State: Bounce-Back Mission

Later in the day, SMU takes on Missouri State.

  • SMU is on a mission to bounce back after their first loss of the season. They've been dominant on the road, winning nine straight games away from home.
  • Missouri State, on the other hand, is making its FBS home debut and will be counting on their strong home record to pull off an upset.

No. 20 Utah vs. Wyoming: High-Stakes Showdown

The night concludes with a high-stakes game between No. 20 Utah and Wyoming.

  • Utah is a strong favorite, but Wyoming has a knack for upsetting top-ranked teams, with a 3-1 record against AP Top 25 opponents in the last decade.
  • This game is a rare matchup, as the two teams haven't faced each other since 2010.
