In addition to the Big Ten games on the docket, CBS Sports will also feature three legs in the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy rivalry between Army, Navy and Air Force. Army-Navy, of course, will be in its historic spot on the calendar, this year taking place on Dec. 13 in Baltimore.

Minnesota at Iowa (10/25)
Big Ten pair hitting their stride
Minnesota and Iowa each hold two-game winning streaks in conference play entering Saturday's game at Kinnick Stadium, a pivotal contest between two unlikely squads who find themselves in the top half of the Big Ten standings just behind several nationally ranked teams. Minnesota's dominant performance last week against Nebraska preceded Iowa's win over Penn State, a pair of momentum-boosting victories leading into Week 9.
Four of the last six meetings between the Golden Gophers and Hawkeyes have been decided by a single possession, with Iowa winning five of those games and nine of its last 10 in the series. Iowa running back Kamari Moulton is coming off a 99-yard effort against Penn State while Minnesota's Darius Taylor galloped his way to a season-high 148 yards and a score against the Huskers.
Iowa at Nebraska (11/27)
Expect a close one on Black Friday
Iowa and Nebraska have delivered thrills nearly every Thanksgiving weekend for the last decade, and the small margins between the two programs has always packed intensity into their respective regular season finales. The interesting twist here is that while nine of the last 11 games in the rivalry have been decided by seven points or less, nine of the last 11 games have also been won by Iowa.
If Matt Rhule and the Cornhuskers are going to have a true breakthrough season in 2025 it doesn't need to include a win over the Hawkeyes necessarily, but it would definitely help the vibes to finish the regular season by snapping this recent run of struggles.
CBS Sports will announce additional details on its 2025 roster of game and studio announcers at a later date
