Here are the games already set for television and/or webcast. Here are the known available telecast windows.
I have done my best to list what TV windows are out there. Every listing service has a little different schedule for these networks. It is also possible that a window could be eliminated or the time of a window could shift slightly to accommodate a network's needs.
Instead of cluttering up these posts even more, I'll try to keep track of the unique conference TV arrangements in a separate post.
A few notes and considerations:
- Games set for TV family or start time, but not both
- USC at Washington: Mid-afternoon or 7:30pm ET
- SEC game time slotting
- Early: Ole Miss at Arkansas & Vanderbilt at Auburn
- Night: Kentucky at Tennessee & Texas A&M at South Carolina
- ABC's 3:30pm game has been already slotted (Florida vs. Georgia)
- My understanding is that FOX Sports has a FOX/FS1 option in the late evening in the event of a World Series game this evening.
- ESPN does not have a late evening window planned.
- FOX Sports has the top choice this weekend in the Big Ten. I slotted CBS second followed by NBC.
- I'm aware that NBC's preferred lineup suggests that USC at Washington would be the NBC game, but I don't think its the 3rd best game available anymore. I would have chosen Indiana at Michigan State, but it appears that the Spartans have been assured they'll have no more night games at home as part of the 12 day selection process.
- I gave ESPN the top Big 12 choice.
- The slate feels kinda light. I think I would have dropped the noon ACCN window.

The other places where there are ACC games.
yes or no outside the ndVSnavy game as well the AAC title game the American has 1 more football ABC game this year
When is the last time ESPN did not have late Saturday window?
Feel free to search my site to check for yourself.
So last year (2023) ESPN did not have an after dark widow in week 12 but FS1 and CBSSN both had a 10:30 game. That is not the case on Nov. 2, 2024 when no games are scheduled to kickoff after 10:00 PM EDT. I will have to do more digging to see the last time there was a week with no games being broadcast starting after 10:00 PM.
I believe that week ESPN has the F1 race from Las Vegas.
Does the American still have a requirement for three games to appear on ABC? I haven't found anything in the conference's publications or on the website saying that the current contract still requires it, even if it still may end up that way with how the academies are doing this year.
ESPN really has no options for After Dark on Nov. 2 -- all of the Pacific and Mountain Time schools they have rights for are either on the road or off that week.
Not sure why the Mountain West's TV partners didn't want to have a late game to themselves, though.
