As of the time of this writing, no other game times or networks have been scheduled. The Big Ten Championship Game annually airs on FOX. Both games are scheduled to air at noon ET. Yesterday (Saturday, September 19) when the Big Ten schedule was revealed it was announced that two regular season games would air on FOX, Nebraska at Ohio State on October 24 (Week 1) and Michigan at Ohio State on December 12 (Week 8). Maybe both Ohio State and Penn State could both make the CFP this year. Champions Week allows the loser of the game a chance to play a ninth game against the runner up from the West Division for a chance at another 'quality win' to impress the College Playoff Committee. The winner of the October 31st game likely will win the East Division title. In both preseason polls (AP and Coaches/ESPN/USA Today), the Ohio State Buckeyes were ranked 2nd and the Penn State Nittany Lions were ranked 7th. It also can help the Big Ten get a second team in the College Football Playoff. The additional games during Champions Week will allow each team to play a ninth game. On December 19, there will be a 'Champions Week' which will include the Big Ten Championship Game between the champions of the East and West Division as is normally the case. Games return on October 24 with each team scheduled to play eight games up to December 12. Give your feedback in the comments I'm gonna have a nice lie-down.Ĭollege football is back in the Big Ten (at least it's scheduled to be). MNW note: This makes my head hurt.but I think there's logic in it? Thanks to Schmolik, 64th of his/her name, for taking the time to write this up.
