Week 5 of the college football season is in full swing with great games continuing Saturday with another loaded schedule of games on the CBS Sports Network as the conference title race continues to intensify across the nation. Two games take place Friday, with three more on the docket for Saturday as the first week of October dawns on what has been a compelling season across the country so far.
To start Friday, UTSA beat host Middle Tennessee 45-30 as the Blue Raiders came out flat after last week’s upset of Miami in the Conference USA opener for both teams. Then, in a late night Mountain West showdown, a much-improved UNLV squad rallied to beat New Mexico 31-20 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Saturday’s tripleheader begins at Army, where the Black Knights fell to Georgia State 31-14 in a battle of teams looking for traction after a tough start. Then, in the afternoon, Fresno State returns to action after a bye week playing at UConn. Finally, Wyoming hosts San Jose State in the nightcap in the battle of the Mountain West.
