No. 7 Penn State vs. UCLA - Where to Watch Live, Game Time & More
Ready for some Big Ten football?
Posted on Oct 1, 2025 | 05:00pm
On Saturday, one Big Ten team will be seeking redemption, and another will be looking to pull off a huge upset when No. 7 Penn State takes on UCLA.
Penn State (3-1) is coming off a crushing, double-overtime loss to Oregon. The defeat dropped head coach James Franklin's Nittany Lions four spots in the AP Top 25 poll. The team remains one of the favorites to pull off a national-championship run, but now they've got less room for error. At UCLA, meanwhile, the Bruins are winless, and on an interim head coach (Tim Skipper, who stepped in for the fired DeShaun Foster). They logged their fourth loss of the season to Northwestern. Both Penn State and UCLA are 0-1 in Big Ten conference action.
Read on for everything you need to know about the Penn State-UCLA game. Our playbook for the Week 6 college football showdown includes odds, a look at key players, plus all the info you need to catch the Big Ten on CBS presentation live. Let's get this kicked off now.
