What channel is Washington vs. Michigan State on today? Time, TV schedule for Week 3 college football game

Last season's meeting between Washington and Michigan State served as the Huskies' arrival to the national stage in the Kalen DeBoer era. One year later, the program's momentum continues to grow.

The eighth-ranked Huskies returned QB Michael Penix Jr., who had an outstanding 2022 season and looks like he might put himself in the Heisman Trophy conversation after a hot start this year.

Washington is one year away from joining the Big Ten, but as the conference stands right now, Michigan State isn't accustomed to facing many offenses as talented as this one. The Spartans are entering this matchup as significant underdogs despite being at home.

For Michigan State, focusing solely on football this week was likely a challenge. Coach Mel Tucker was suspended amid an investigation into a sexual harassment claim, and multiple reports indicate he isn't likely to return to the role.

Interim coach Harlon Barnett will try to rally the team and have the group ready for the toughest test of their pre-bye stretch, but it will be an uphill battle unless the defense can slow Penix.

Here’s what you need to know to watch Saturday’s matchup between Washington and Michigan State, including live streams and start time.
