Every week on the Inside Texas Members Only board, DuvalHorn puts together the weekly viewing options for the upcoming weekend’s college football slate. Sometimes it is on the board as early as Tuesday thanks to MACtion and Fun Belt games. But no matter what, the weekly TV schedule lets us know what’s coming during the weekend.

Here’s what’s on tap for week three, with DuvalHorn’s own thoughts on the game.

Come talk about the games on Inside Texas!

As always, Central Time for the kickoffs.

Thursday

NC State at Wake Forest (6:30 PM, ESPN) – Not the most impressive start for NC State, but they would be 2-0 in what looks to be a competitive ACC if they win here.

Friday

Indiana State at Indiana (5:30 PM, BTN) – More intriguing as a basketball matchup than on the gridiron.

Colorado at Houston (6:30 PM, ESPN) – Third-stringer Ryan Staub getting the start for Colorado after looking quite good against Delaware.

Kansas State at Arizona (8 PM, Fox) – Kansas State could have absolutely been 0-3 going into this game. To say this is a must-win is an understatement to right the ship.

Saturday

Clemson at Georgia Tech (11 AM, ESPN) – What was an early-season sleeper matchup is now even more intriguing after Clemson’s shaky start.

Oklahoma at Temple (11 AM, ESPN2) – OU going on the road to play in Philadelphia is one of the more puzzling scheduling quirks of this season.

Wisconsin at Alabama (11 AM, ABC) – ULM followed by a very shaky Wisconsin is as good as the Tide could have asked for to get right after shocker in Tallahassee.

Georgia at Tennessee (2:30 PM, ABC) – A vulnerable-looking Georgia travels to an orange UT with GameDay in town. Where have we seen this before…

Texas vs. UTEP (3:15 PM, SECN)

South Florida at Miami (FL) (3:30 PM, The CW) – Easily one of the biggest programs in recent CW history.

Arkansas at Ole Miss (6 PM, ESPN) – Arkansas has put away their cupcakes with authority so far. Time to see what a step up in competition brings.

Texas A&M at Notre Dame (6:30 PM, NBC) – Mike Elko on the hunt for an elusive road win against a ranked team (by the end of the season) for A&M.

Florida at LSU (6:30 PM, ABC) – The thing about Florida dropping that game last week was that it wasn’t even the official start of their gauntlet. Billy Napier needs another rabbit to pull out of a hat.

Vanderbilt at South Carolina (6:45 PM, SECN) – Can Vandy make it two big road wins in a row?

Duke at Tulane (7 PM, ESPN2) – The Green Wave “welcome” Darian Mensah back to the Big Easy.

Minnesota at Cal (9:30 PM, ESPN) – Does Cal actually have a QB who can play? We’ll see if it’s real or not.

Texas State at Arizona State (9:30 PM, TNT) – Lost a bit of steam after ASU stumbled in Starkville, but this is the return trip after last year’s barnburner.
