Travel delays following Friday’s nationwide Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ground stop have changed Saturday, November 14, college football television plans, including a network switch for Arizona State’s game at the University of Central Florida (UCF).
UCF’s 10 p.m. Friday update confirms that the game in Orlando, Florida, will start at 5:30 p.m. Eastern on ESPNU. That is two hours later than its previously announced 3:30 p.m. start on ESPN2.
Utah’s game at Arizona in Tucson, Arizona, moves from 5:30 p.m. Mountain to 8:30 p.m. Mountain Standard Time, or 10:30 p.m. Eastern. It remains on Fox. Utah attributed the change to the flight stoppage and travel delays; Arizona separately confirmed the new time and continued Fox carriage.
Update, November 14: Oklahoma confirms that its game against Ole Miss in Norman, Oklahoma, has moved from Saturday at 3:15 p.m. Central to Sunday, November 15, at noon Central, or 1 p.m. Eastern. The Southeastern Conference made the change after Ole Miss reported it could not fly Friday. The conference has since confirmed SEC Network for the Sunday game.
In the same announcement, the conference moved Sunday’s Texas–South Carolina soccer championship in Pensacola, Florida, to 4:30 p.m. Eastern on SEC Network. Eastern Michigan’s women’s basketball game at Kentucky in Lexington, Kentucky, remains at noon Eastern Sunday but moves to the SEC Network+ streaming service.
West Virginia confirms its home game against Kansas in Morgantown, West Virginia, moves from 5:30 p.m. Eastern on ESPNU to 3:30 p.m. Eastern Saturday on ESPN2, filling the earlier television window. Kansas had arrived before the ground stop, the school said.
