Indiana @ tOSU, Sat Nov 12, 12pm, FOX

I'm guessing, but it looks like Illinois/Purdue would be the leading choice for the Big Noon Kickoff game. Alabama/Ole Miss is likely the get picked up by CBS for the 3:30 game which leaves one other ranked matchup (using current rankings) between UNC and Wake Forest. That would fall on ESPN for an evening kickoff slot. In looking at the other games, TCU/Texas (Fox) and Washington/Oregon (Fox) are trending towards primetime options as well. I'd guess the Buckeyes will land at the 3:30 based on those other games and network commitments. But they could easily land as a noon game as well.

Disclaimer: Evening games are my favorite games.

Networks use six-day window for Ohio State-Indiana kickoff
There’s not much fear that Ohio State will struggle with Indiana on Nov. 12. The Hoosiers have three wins all year, each of them coming before October.

But when the Buckeyes game against the Hoosiers kicks off? Well, it’s yet to be determined, and it won’t be until next week.

The Big Ten television networks will use one of their six-day selections for the weekend of Nov. 12 to determine the kickoff times for all seven Big Ten games that weekend, and the Ohio State game is part of that. The Buckeyes won’t find out what time their game against Indiana kicks off until Saturday night or Sunday morning this week. The other games that will be decided then are Nebraska at Michigan, Purdue at Illinois, Maryland at Penn State, Wisconsin at Iowa, Northwestern at Minnesota and Rutgers at Michigan State.

Yes, Ohio State has a game this weekend at Northwestern before the Indiana game. And the time for that showdown with the Hoosiers? It’s yet to be determined.

I want to see a solid start to finish football game. Come in with a purpose, focus, and intensity. And I’m talking coaches as well as players. Play with some “we’re going to take your manhood and there’s nothing you can do about it” attitude.

I want to see this physicality mind set that Day talked about all off season, because I have yet to see it, outside of a few players. I’m tired of seeing runners breaking tackles and dragging defensive players for 3 extra yards and the Oline getting blown up when it needs 1 yard.

I feel like we’re sleep walking in to what’s going to be a hard fought game in a few weeks. This is tOSU where Woody once roamed the sideline and legends have played. Time to wipe some mud on the owies and get the fuck after it. It needs to start here and now with an absolute no holds barred throttling of IU.
