Time & TV info set for K-State vs. Baylor, KU vs. UCF in Big 12 football action
AI-generated summary reviewed by our newsroom.
- Kansas State football scheduled for back-to-back 11 a.m. kickoffs on FS1 and ESPN+.
- Kansas opens against Cincinnati at 11 a.m. on TNT, then faces UCF in prime time.
- Big 12 releases full Oct. 4 TV lineup, spanning major networks and streaming platforms.
Kansas State’s next two football games will both kick off in the morning.
The Wildcats will host UCF at 11 a.m. on Saturday at Bill Snyder Family Stadium on FS1. A week later, they will hit the road for a game against Baylor at the same time in Waco, Texas. That game will be streamed on ESPN+ on Oct. 4.
It has been a while since the Wildcats played a string of early games. Their first four games of the season were all played under the lights. And the vast majority of their games were played in prime time last season.
At 1-3, K-State is off to its worst start since 1989. Perhaps a change in game times could help Chris Klieman and his team shake things up.
The Big 12 and its TV partners announced times for all of the Oct. 4 games on Monday.
The Kansas Jayhawks will also play at 11 a.m. this weekend when they host Cincinnati on Saturday on TNT with a simulcast on TruTV and HBO MAX. But they will move under the lights and play at 6:30 p.m. when they travel for a road game against UCF on Oct. 4. That game will be televised on ESPN2.
