It's not likely we'll know what time and on what network this game will be broadcast until the Sunday before this game. I count like 10 games that are network broadcast worthy that are still unscheduled. In the BT alone there are 5. I've heard Iowa that hosts Minnesota has said they will not play a night game and I'm pretty sure Michigan has also said that. So, I'm hoping it's a noon game or at worst 3:30.
ABC usually gets the prime noon game with the BTN, ESPN and ESPN 2 getting lesser match-ups. My thinking is that both LSU at Ole Miss and Wake at Clemson will be night games; the Virginia at GaTech game could be played indoors in ATL so that could also safely be a night broadcast and then CBS might be in play. UF is at Missouri - probably not a night game. If that plays out the noon and 3:30 games will come from MSU at Michigan, IU at PSU, osu at Rutgers in the EST time zone, Minny at Iowa and Umass at nFw in the CST zone. Too many options but I very much doubt the M/MSU game will be at night. More likely noon. We'll see.
