* I have Florida St. at USF in the 8pm ABC slot for now. UCLA at Stanford could certainly go there, maybe Washington at Arizona too. The Pac-12 has adjusted some rules regarding when a Pac-12 Networks game can start and overlap an exclusive TV window on ABC or FOX. Right now, based on game locations, the existing Pac-12 Networks telecast windows would need a slight adjustment, such as maybe moving the 6pm window to 5:30pm ET (2:30pm PT), and that's why I don't have a Pac-12 game at 8pm on ABC and have Florida St. at USF.
* A decent case could be make to flip the networks of the Arkansas vs. Texas A&M and Florida at Tennessee games.
* Per a FOX Sports release, they will have two Big 12 games and one Pac-12 game. Taking into account the the San Jose St. at Iowa St. game on FSN at 12pm ET, that leaves a game from each conference for the two remaining slots (3:30pm FS1 & 7:30pm FOX).
* A page at the FOX television network website listed the Oklahoma St. at Baylor game as their choice on 9/24, so let's assume that is accurate for now.
* The reason for the missing ESPN2 window at 7pm is due to the World Cup of Hockey.
* Advance Pac-12 Network schedules hinted at the 6pm game coming from Oregon and the 10pm game from Arizona, which makes sense as the Arizona schools prefer to play night games throughout the month of September if at all possible.

I can see florida st @ south Florida in the 12pm slot on ABC and Wisconsin @ Michigan st in the 8pm slot on ABC
Hi Chris. Big Ten night games are determined before the season starts and Michigan St. does not have permanent lights at its stadium until next season, so someone would have to quickly rent them, which may not be feasible.
Oklahoma St. at Baylor and Florida St. at USF might be the worst pair of network prime time games in a while. I have to believe that Stanford-UCLA will end up on either FOX or ABC.
Based on the proposed prime time games, I would not be shocked if both FOX and ABC did a 6-day hold for this week.
