Big Ten Saturday Night is getting ready for its Hollywood moment.
Conference realignment has shaken up college football and turned unfamiliar opponents into conference foes. Two of those unfamiliar opponents will be in the national spotlight on Saturday, as Indiana will head out west to battle UCLA in primetime.
Despite more than 240 years of combined college football history, Saturday's showdown will mark the first ever matchup between Indiana and UCLA. The Hoosiers has been to UCLA's stadium, though, taking part in the 1968 Rose Bowl against USC.
Both teams are unbeaten in the young 2024 season. UCLA is coming off a 16-13 win over Hawaii in DeShaun Foster's first game as Bruins head coach, while Indiana moved to 2-0 on the year after stomping Western Illinois by a score of 77-3.
Before the Hoosiers and Bruins take the field for their first ever matchup, here's everything you need to know to tune into the game.
