After a cross-country trip to play Southern Cal this weekend, Michigan football will return to the early-afternoon kickoff window.
The Wolverines’ Oct. 18 game against Washington, set for Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, has been picked up by FOX and assigned a 12 p.m. Eastern kickoff time, the Big Ten announced on Monday.
That means FOX will bring its “Big Noon Kickoff” show back to Ann Arbor, where it set up shop for Saturday’s Michigan-Wisconsin game. It also marks the third noon kickoff for the Wolverines this season.
Michigan (4-1, 2-0 Big Ten) is set to travel to Los Angeles this week to play USC on Saturday, a game set for 7:30 p.m. ET (4:30 p.m. PT) on NBC.
Washington (4-1, 1-1 Big Ten) hosts Rutgers this Friday in Seattle (9 p.m. ET, FS1).
