This post will be updated as announcements come out for start times for Week 8 (10/19/24) from the (mostly) twelve day selection process that most TV networks adhere to. Most conferences have the possibility of having all or part of their scheduled games held for a six day hold for the start time and/or the TV network. 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 will prove to be incorrect), along with the games that have already been set.

Just weird seeing games like Arizona State at Cincinnati, Georgia at Texas, and SMU at Stanford as conference games...
Happy you were wrong about ESPN picking the Colorado at Arizona for the After Dark window.
Yeah. Feels like FOX was at the top of the selection order.
And it appears another Big 12 team agreed to the 8:30 pm local start time.
I'm more surprised about this one than the BYU game earlier this season. BYU has had 8:30 pm kickoffs in previous seasons, but I'm not aware of Utah having them.
I don't have BYU with a scheduled 8:30pm MT kickoff at home before this year. It's new for them too. 8:15pm MT was a normal scheduled time for them.
interesting no acc game on cw for this week of games
Yes considering their contract with Raycom/ESPN/ACC gives them 13 games per year and they did not run an ACC game in Week 1, it seems like they will have two ACC games in a later week.
