Six day selection guesses for 9/28/24

September isn't an early month to have a six day hold, but its a bit more unusual to have this many games being held up.  Some were given a small range of start times, which should affect the TV windows.

I'm only going to go through the windows that would be affected by the Big 12, Big Ten, Mountain West and SEC.

I do think FOX and CBS will flip their TV windows for the Big Ten.  I'm told Rick Neuheisel might have let that be known on Sirius XM today. Also think that Fresno State at UNLV will get downgraded to FS2 and that the 8pm ESPN2 window gets deleted in favor of a Pat McAfee alternate presentation of Georgia-Alabama.

12pm ABC: Kentucky at Ole Miss
12pm CBS: Nebraska at Purdue
12pm FOX: Colorado at UCF
12pm ESPN: Oklahoma State at Kansas State
12pm FS1: Cincinnati at Texas Tech
12pm Peacock: Minnesota at Michigan
3:30pm ABC: Mississippi State at Texas
3:30pm FOX: Wisconsin at USC
3:30pm ESPN: Oklahoma at Auburn
3:30pm FS1: BYU at Baylor
3:30pm FS2: Fresno State at UNLV
4:15pm SECN: Arkansas vs. Texas A&M
7pm FS1: Iowa State at Houston
7:30pm NBC: Illinois at Penn State
10pm FOX: Oregon at UCLA
10pm FS1: Washington State at Boise State 

ESPN+: TCU at Kansas

Is the FOX night window not an hour later?

If Boise State is the choice it will be a 10pm ET start, and MLB should be over by 10:15pm. I know affiliates were told 11pm but I don't think they ever needed to schedule that late and that it could move slightly earlier.
