SALT LAKE CITY — It's time for another weekend of college football, and there's a great slate of games for you to choose from in Week 5.

The weekend starts off with a morning game on the road for the Cougars, who travel to Waco, Texas, to take on Baylor. The road hasn't been as kind to No. 22 BYU (nor has the daytime) in the past, but it's a new season and the Cougars are 4-0.

Will the Cougars keep their winning ways or will there be disappointment after a dismantling of Kansas State last week?

No. 10 Utah closes out the night in a "Dark Mode" game against talented quarterback Noah Fifita and Arizona at Rice-Eccles Stadium. The Wildcats had the Utes' number last season, but can the magic of a night time game help lead Utah to victory and a 5-0 start to the season?

In our three national games this week (Utah State has a bye), we get two ranked-vs-ranked matchups between Oklahoma State and Kansas State to help settle some of the Big 12 hierarchy, and Georgia going into Tuscaloosa to try to get a win over a new-look Alabama squad.

And then there's Boise State welcoming a hot Washington State team to Idaho in what will soon become a conference game. The Broncos likely have more at stake as the team tries to remain the highest-ranking Group of Five team for a playoff spot.
