With the final month of the 2019 college football season here, there is no such thing as too much football. Fill your plate with this binge-watching guide.

We are getting deeper and deeper into November, and before you know it the postseason will be upon us. After that three-week binge of games, though, it is all over. Then we are doomed to yet another long offseason of inactivity.

So soak up as much football as you can while it still exists in all its abundance. The College Football Playoff selection committee has issued its first proclamation of the year, and this week we have three matchups of Top 25 teams as rated by the committee. With the final month of the 150th year of college football churning along, stakes continue to get higher with each passing week.

Which games should you watch, though? Each week, we put together a handy guide to direct your binge-watching habits. This assumes that you have three screens available at all times — or that you have phenomenally nimble fingers on the remote control.

With all that in mind, here’s your Binge-Watching Guide for Week 11 of the 2019 season. (All odds from the Action Network. All times in Eastern Time.)

Friday Night Special: UCF at Tulsa (7:00 p.m. ET – ESPN2)

UCF makes the trip to Chapman Stadium as a 16-point favorite against Tulsa. That line could be a little high, considering how the Golden Hurricane took SMU and Memphis down to the wire. In the end, though, look for Dillon Gabriel to have a big game and for the UCF backfield to make some major noise. Kick-start your weekend right with some critical Group of Five action on Friday night as the Knights continue to harbor hopes of a third straight conference crown.

PREDICTION: Tulsa covers the spread at home, but UCF runs away with a two-touchdown victory to keep their slim hopes alive in the AAC East race.

Late-Night Special: Washington at Oregon State (10:30 p.m. ET – FS1)

Before the season, few if any would have guessed that Oregon State would host Washington in the second week of November with a better conference record than the Huskies. But with the Beavers 3-2 in Pac-12 play, they have a real shot of bowl eligibility for the first time in six years. Things always seem to go crazy when Pac-12 After Dark kicks into action, putting the Huskies on upset alert as 9.5-point favorites on the road.

PREDICTION: Oregon State is going to stun the country and claim their fifth victory of the season in a tense, close battle against visiting Washington.
