RE: 2025 Football Game Time Speculation/Announcements
Nov. 15:

FOX Big Nooner: UCLA at Ohio State
CBS 3:30pm: Iowa at USC
NBC 7:30pm: Purdue at Washington

Peacock: Michigan vs. Northwestern at Wrigley Field, noon

BTN: Penn State at Michigan State, noon, Wisconsin at Indiana, 3:30pm

FS1: Maryland at Illinois, noon

Wisconsin at Indiana will definitely air on BTN as IU's only other remaining game has already been selected by NBC. Penn State and USC also still need their BTN conference games. For USC, all of their games should air OTA (their one dud is probably Northwestern but that was chosen as a Friday Night game on FOX). USC at Oregon likely is huge and with NBC needing two Big Ten games that week it seems a lock USC-Oregon will be needed that week. It comes down to Iowa or UCLA getting stuck on BTN. November 15 is so bad that Washington-Purdue is needed for NBC and Iowa is still in the Playoff hunt so for now I'll kick USC-UCLA to BTN.

As for Michigan-Northwestern, it's a matter of whether or not a) they're OK with playing a night game at Wrigley Field and b) if Michigan (and Northwestern) are OK with playing a November 15 night game in Chicago. If so, that game likely becomes the NBC OTA game. Peacock isn't officially scheduled for a game on November 15 but they still need at least one more game and no windows are currently scheduled.

RE: 2025 Football Game Time Speculation/Announcements
Nov. 22 Speculation:

FOX Big Nooner: Rutgers at Ohio State
CBS 3:30pm: Michigan at Maryland
NBC (Scheduled Doubleheader): USC at Oregon, 7pm, Washington at UCLA, 10:15pm

BTN has three windows. Penn State still hasn't had a BTN conference game so assuming PSU doesn't make it on a network Nebraska-Penn State should wind up on BTN although they certainly could dump Penn State-Rutgers on BTN as well.

BTN: Michigan State at Iowa, noon, Illinois at Wisconsin, 3:30pm, Nebraska at Penn State, 7:30pm (someone has to take the night BTN game)

Peacock: Minnesota vs. Northwestern at Wrigley, noon (They still need 1-2 games)

Its entirely possible that the winner of Iowa-Nebraska goes to the playoffs-though I doubt it. I say spend the PSU Nebraska game on Peacock in order to get Iowa-Nebraska on Big Ten. Then sticking PSU-Rutgers there too becomes a nice bonus for the network as well.

Just to confirm, BTN is still ranked above Peacock in league preference, right?

To answer The Beaver's question, I don't know about Peacock vs. BTN. I know Peacock has had some good games including Washington at Penn State last year and Indiana at Iowa this year.

Nov. 29 Speculation:

Official:
FOX Big Nooner Saturday: Ohio State at Michigan
Friday CBS noon: Nebraska at Iowa
Friday NBC 7:30pm: Indiana at Purdue

Speculation:
CBS 3:30pm: USC at UCLA
NBC 7:30pm: Oregon at Washington

BTN (for sure): Penn State at Rutgers

Remaining: Northwestern at Illinois, Maryland vs. Michigan State at Detroit
