I don't yet have the 2025 CFB TV portal in place due to having to focus on other life items. I'm hoping to get it in place over the next few weeks. I'm hoping to move the site over to AWS as a host, taking advantage of a rewrite I've done in Vue & GraphQL.
(If you have some technical chops, reach out, I might have some questions. If not, keep reading).
Since we're missing four of the five Group of Five schedules, I might try to slot in a few of their games if the matchup fits.
For Weeks 0 & 1, I'm accounting for a few things and assuming some as well:
* No early afternoon games on ABC due to the Little League World Series in Week 0.
* No ESPN2 on Saturday of Week 1 due to the US Open.
* FS1 has a NASCAR Trucks race at 12pm ET on the Saturday of Week 0, so no early afternoon window. I'm also expecting IndyCar qualifying from Nashville to air on FS1 after this event.
* FOX has MLB scheduled at 7pm ET.
* CW has a NASCAR Xfinity Series race from Portland at 7:30pm ET.

Week 1
Games in italics are games that I've moved from the Saturday date. They are not confirmed to have moved from their existing Saturday date. Games in a green font are confirmed for time and TV.
At this moment, I'm assuming the CW will continue as the rightsholder for Oregon State and Washington State.

If a game isn't listed, I haven't forgotten about it. I think it will air on ESPN+ or a similar streaming platform.

Is this first year of new Big 12 rights deal with espn and Fox? Where espn gets the top 4 picks and 12 of the top 20. Surprising that they wouldn’t use one of those early selections on a standalone week 0 game in a window that rated so well this past season.
Yes, new Big 12 rights structure.
Can you clarify further? As I look at the Big 12 schedule for Week 0, its not that great of a Big 12 schedule to work with. ESPN/ABC in particular might look at saving their best picks for later in the season.
Note that the Iowa State-Kansas State game is in Dublin, Ireland, so it can't be played late in the day. ABC has their commitment to the Little League World Series too.
Is there any chance the Missouri State at USC game is on FOX after the MLB game?
Chance? Yes. But I wouldn't use a late night selection on it.
Is there any chance that Texas-Ohio State is a night game? Although I don't expect it to be, I really hope so as an Ohio State fan.
I'm expecting it to be one of FOX's top 3 Big Ten choices. Only if NBC were to trade up, and this year I don't see a compelling reason for FOX to trade one of those selections
Do you think that UCF-Jax State game on Friday gets a TV slot. I’d be surprised to see it on ESPN+ BIG12 vs a G5 conference champion
Not really.
