As college football season heads into the first weekend of November, conference championship races are heating up and, for many teams, so is the push for bowl eligibility. Those aspirations will be on display on CBS Sports Network during Week 10, as the network hosts a MAC game on Tuesday and three conference clashes in a Saturday tripleheader.
The action started Tuesday night as Akron hosted Ball State in a cross-division MAC showdown. The Cardinals moved to 5-4 on the season with a thrilling 31-25 win over the Zips.
Saturday's slate begins at noon ET, when UAB and Louisiana Tech square off in a game that could get wild. The Bulldogs have been involved in several tight games this season while UAB has been unpredictably alternating between comfortable victories and blowout or upset losses during a 5-3 start. In the afternoon, Wyoming will look to get back above .500 on the season when it hosts a Colorado State team that is at risk of missing a bowl for the fourth straight season. Finally, the nightcap is a Mountain West showdown between No. 25 Fresno State and Boise State. The Bulldogs found their way to the top of the West Division by knocking off previously unbeaten San Diego State last week but will need a win over the Broncos to maintain that position.
Here is the full rundown of all the Week 10 action on CBS Sports Network with all times Eastern.

Storylines: Three of the last five meetings between these Mountain West foes have come in league championship games, and the last three meetings were decided by a touchdown or less. The Broncos (4-4, 2-2 Mountain West) are down a bit this season under first-year coach Andy Avalos but should still provide a tough test for the high-flying No. 25 Bulldogs (7-2, 4-1). A win here would move Fresno State within two victories of a guaranteed appearance in the league title game.
