  23. West Virginia @ Cincinnati will air at 12:00 PM ET on FS1 in November 9. Also one of the following games will air on FS1. That is either Colorado @ Texas Tech or Iowa State @ Kansas. The other game will air on Fox. The time for those two games have not been determined yet.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Also, Fresno State @ Air Force will air at 9:45 PM ET on FS1 for November 9. The game between Nevada and Boise State is another game that could air on either Fox or FS1, with time TBD

  25. Iowa State @ Kansas will air at 3:30 PM ET on FS1 for November 9

    ReplyDelete
  26. Oklahoma State @ TCU will air at 8:00 PM ET on FS1 for November 9. So that means the game between Fresno State and Air Force will start on FS2 at 9:45 PM ET, and will move to FS1 once the game between Oklahoma State and TCU is done.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Now the Big 12 just announced that the start time for Oklahoma State @ TCU game will now be at 7:00 PM ET. This is due to the fact that the game between Fresno State and Air Force will kickoff at 9:45 PM ET. FS1 wanted to make sure that by the time the game between Oklahoma State and TCU is done, FS1 viewers will have enough time to watch the game between Fresno State and Air Force. That is why Fresno State @ Air Force will start on FS2 at 9:45 PM ET and will move to FS1 when the game between Oklahoma State and TCU is done.
