Heading into Week 6 of the college football season, there is no clear-cut, dominant favorite to win the national championship, and with only four teams set to make the College Football Playoff, one loss can make or break a team's season.

Several teams are set to put their unbeaten record on the line this weekend, including No. 1 Georgia, No. 2 Michigan, No. 3 Texas and No. 4 Ohio State.

The "Big Noon Kickoff" crew will be on hand for the Big Ten battle between the Buckeyes and Maryland at 12 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app.

The 5-0 Longhorns will take on a 5-0 Oklahoma squad in a Big 12 showdown in Dallas at 12 p.m. ET.

An SEC showdown between Georgia and Kentucky will take center stage at 7 p.m. ET, followed by another Big Ten clash between Michigan and Minnesota at 7:30 p.m. ET.
