Ohio State has barred Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy from entering Ohio Stadium during the Big Noon Kickoff show for the Ohio State vs. Texas game, likely due to his vocal support for Ohio State's rival Michigan and his outspoken social media presence.
FOX Sports and Barstool Sports are close to a deal that would see Dave Portnoy join FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff and bring additional Barstool content to FS1, as part of a strategy to compete with ESPN’s College GameDay and revamp FS1’s programming lineup, though details are still pending.
Fox's "Big Noon Kickoff" will be in Boulder, Colorado for the third consecutive week to cover the matchup between the Colorado Buffaloes and the Colorado State Rams, while the Illinois vs. Penn State game will be the "Big Noon Saturday" game in Champaign, Illinois. Deion Sanders, who has won his first two games as the coach of the Buffaloes, is generating significant buzz in college football. Both "Big Noon Kickoff" and ESPN's "College GameDay" will be in Boulder for the game.
More network assignments and start times for Big Ten college football games have been reported, including three additional Big Noon Kickoff games on Fox and several Peacock-exclusive games. Ohio State will have a Peacock-exclusive game, which may not sit well with their fanbase. The Peacock streaming component was a significant part of NBC's media rights deal with the Big Ten, and they want marquee teams featured at least once this season.
Michigan will take on Penn State at noon on November 11, with the game being televised on Fox's Big Noon Kickoff. Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh is 5-3 overall against PSU and head coach James Franklin. The Wolverines will have a great chance of winning their third consecutive tilt in the series, one in which UM leads all-time 16-0, but it’s never easy escaping Happy Valley with a victory.
