B1G Noon Kickoff

[LionsAndBears]

The big game this week is OSU v Oregon. So, why isn't that the 12pm game? Why are they airing Washington v Iowa?

Underlying question is really about Fox always ruining our Whiteout games. I know the OSU game is out west. I'm just frustrated that we haven't had the chance to use our biggest home field advantage since this tv deal was signed.

This isn't difficult. There isn't a school in America that will agree to a 9:00 am (local) kickoff.

The TV contract means that different networks get to pick in different spots each week. NBC obviously had the first choice of games this weekend...FOX doesn't get the first choice every week. And, as PSUFBFAN noted, the West Coast teams have reportedly been given assurances that they won't need to host any noon Eastern games.
