Welcome to football nirvana.
Conference USA’s mid-week schedule begins Wednesday night when Missouri State visits Middle Tennessee and Liberty heads to UTEP. Why are those two games significant? They start a stretch of seven weeks where there is at least one NFL or top-level college football game every single day.

After Wednesday, the next day without a college football or NFL game is Wednesday, Nov. 26, the day before Thanksgiving. That’s a one-day break before there are five straight days of football as the college football regular season comes to an end.
Every football season typically has a long stretch where there’s a game every single day, but it’s especially longer in 2025 thanks to the length of the college football season and the way the calendar falls. Labor Day was as early as possible this year on Sept. 1 and Thanksgiving is very late on Nov. 27. The college football season is 14 weeks instead of the typical 13 weeks and each team gets two off weeks for the second straight season.
The seven-week stretch is buoyed by Conference USA and the MAC. Starting Wednesday, Conference USA will play games on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for the rest of October. After October is over, the MAC takes over its traditional weekday football mantle with November weeknight games until the day before Thanksgiving.

You’ll also have plenty of options during the streak. With the exception of Monday nights, when Monday Night Football is the lone game in town, there are at least two football games on each of the other six days of the week.
