CFB TV Selections for 2016 Week Ten (11/1/16 - 11/5/16)

This post will be updated as announcements come out for start times for 11/1 & 11/5 from the twelve day selection process that most TV networks adhere to (yes, 11/1 is eight days away, I know).  Please understand that games can be held until next Sunday if a broadcaster wants to wait on the results of the Week Nine games.  Most conferences have the possibility of having all or part of their games held for a six day hold of the start time.

The list of available TV windows are based on media websites, TV listings and press releases.  They can change based on the needs of the broadcaster or the conference.

Here's what I guessed based on the available openings (they'll prove to be incorrect) and here is the current schedule for the week as several FBS games do have their time & television/webcast assignments already accounted for.  


All Times Eastern

Six Day Holds
Oklahoma St. at Kansas St. (ABC/ESPN/ESPN2 at 3:30pm ET or ESPN/ESPN2 at 7pm ET)

  • ABC/ESPN/ESPN2 at 12pm
  • ACC Network at 12:30pm
  • ABC/ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU at 3:30pm
  • ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU at 7pm 
Oregon at USC, Arizona at Washington St. & Washington at California - one at 10:30pm on ESPN, one at either 3:30pm or 7pm (probably same networks as Big 12, maybe including ESPNU which makes it like ACC) and a flexible Pac-12 Networks start between 4pm & 7pm ET.
