TV game schedule. Fridays/Saturdays or both?

[v1nufan]

So I know nothing yet released but is it likely 1 Friday game each week with the remaining 7 games broadcast on Saturdays between ABC/Fox and BTN ?
GBR!

You would think it would be common sense by now being in the conference for 10 years.

Iowa doesn’t want it really.

Well TV broadcasts have influenced the timing of games for years and the TV networks don't want to make those broadcast decisions until the last minute so they can see how teams are shaking out. I'd think that would be even much more so this year with no fans allowed to attend in person.

My understanding is that they have also requested that the Illinois game in Lincoln be played on Friday night as well.

I wonder if they want to use the 7 day window every week due to games possibly being canceled

You would think FOX would have some idea what they want the first couple weeks then ESPN has it’s choice..

There was also talk about Friday night games you would think they would have some of them already lined to be announced..

I get the 7 day window but there‘s a total of 7 B1G games that don’t need no 7 day window..

Ohio St is 11am on Fox ...right?

Why the world would they do that?

Because they have finals that week. It also gives them a chance to have seven full days to be prepared for Iowa..
