What we like
We LOVE this weekend’s lineup. On Friday, USC hosts Northwestern at the Coliseum. On Saturday, UCLA hosts Nebraska at the Rose Bowl (and depending on what time that ends up scheduled for, you may be able to see the Clippers that night as well). And then on Sunday, the Chargers and Steelers get the “night” game (which is 5:20 on the West Coast). If you love football, you probably can’t find a better tripleheader than that.

What we like
This is an excellent sports weekend in Chicago. Two Bulls games, two Blackhawks games, Notre Dame at home, Northwestern at home, and a bonus of Paul McCartney doing a rare arena show at the United Center on Monday night. If you stick to the city, you could easily do five events from Friday to Sunday.

What we like
If the schedule makers do their job, you could hit three games in two days. Pitt hosts Miami on Saturday, but the game time has not been announced. If it’s an afternoon game, then you’d have time to catch the Penguins play the Maple Leafs at PPG Paints Arena that night. And then, on Sunday, you’ve got all day to pregame before the late 4:25 Steelers-Bills matchup.

*All times local to game location.
What we like
If you plan it right, you can hit up three games in two days. On Saturday, the Wizards host the Hawks at Capital One Arena in DC. Get back to Baltimore that night (40 miles) so you’re ready in the morning for the Ravens and Steelers. Walk out of M&T Stadium after the game and drive back to DC for the Capitals vs. Blue Jackets game at 7:00. Easy? Maybe not. Worth it? Yeah … we think so!

What we like
If you like hockey, then this is a great weekend to be in Pittsburgh.

*All times local to game location.
What we like
If you have the stamina to keep up, you can squeeze three games into less than 24 hours this weekend in Detroit. On Saturday night, the Pistons host the Hornets. The next day, there’s a 1:00 Red Wings-Capitals game, and then, a 10-minute walk down the street, it’s the Lions vs. Steelers. Even if the hockey game ran three hours, you could still be in your seat for kickoff at Ford Field.

What we like
We won’t know if the game will be on Saturday or Sunday for a while, so it’s best to hold off on making plans for this one until the schedule is set. But once it is, you can consider coming into town on New Year’s Day for the Penguins hosting the Red Wings at PPG Paints Arena.

Bottom Line
If you’re coming to Pittsburgh for some football, we like Week 6, when Penn State hosts Northwestern and the Steelers host the Browns. And Week 11, when Notre Dame visits Pitt, and the Bengals visit the Steelers.
If you’re heading out on the road to see the Steelers, check out the Week 10 trip to LA. You can see the Coliseum, the Rose Bowl, and SoFi all in the same weekend.
Happy sports travels!
