2012 College Football TV Schedule Week 3: TV Listings for the Upcoming Week

Week three of the college football season has three amazing games on deck that will have you stuck to your couch. 

With that being said, welcome back to another week of college football television!

But before we can look forward to next week, we must take a step back and remember the week that was.

Last week, the viewer was treated to some amazing comebacks, upsets and shockers. If you are an Arkansas, Nebraska, Wisconsin or Oklahoma State fan, then I sympathize with you. 

I am a fan of the University of Pittsburgh, a team that after two weeks has looked about as good as Savanna State. 

On the other side of the TV watching coin, there was the sheer joy of watching football on Saturday, as fans of UCLA, Arizona and Oregon State proved that the Pac 12 shouldn’t be forgotten about.

With the way that Oregon and USC are playing, maybe their conference can provide a team that can knock off a team from the SEC, should one of their teams make the BCS Championship game. 

And before we get into the next week, let’s take a moment to recognize the efforts of Louisiana-Monroe’s quarterback, Kolton Browning. Browning led the Warhawks to a shocking upset of then No. 8 Arkansas with 412 passing yards, three touchdowns and an amazing game-winning rushing touchdown in overtime. 

Browning was certainly last week’s player of the week. 

Oh and one more thing, it wasn’t all bad for Pennsylvania college football teams. Yes, Penn State and Pittsburgh both lost, but, California University of PA won again, defeating Kutztown 48-45. 

Have a great week everyone. Below you can see who your team is playing this week at what time and the channel you can find the game on.
