Does anybody have any inside info on Wisconsin start time?

Since nothing has been announced so far today, the networks could have gone to the six day hold. Seems early in the year to do so. What results could they possibly be waiting for?

I just hope that it's not a noon start. Can you believe that Fox's Big Noon game this week is Kent State-OSU?

Matt Sarz seems to have confirmed a 5pm start. I do not see this anywhere else. Important to note he has it on his “confirmations” post and not his “guess” post. TIFWIW
Thanks for the response. To me, that's better than a noon start but not as good as a 3:30 start.

Is that our 1 streaming for the year?

True...for me it's more about how it interfers with both the 330 and 8p kicks
BTN has women’s volleyball that night, thus the unusual kick times that day.
If you haven’t already checked out mattsarzsports.com, he does an excellent job monitoring and explaining broadcast windows, what’s possible, what’s likely and usually gives acceptable reasoning for his guesses/predictions.
In this example, he did predict PSU-Wisky in the 1:30 BTN window, but he clearly had not heard what PSU fans heard about the Wisky game being sometime in the late afternoon.
The other takeaway from this decision is that this is the second time PSU has tried to finagle/massage a start time (2024 UDubs being the first to my knowledge). And this ended with PSU getting the kick time they wanted but having to accept the broadcast as streaming only, the same result from the 2024 whiteout tv debacle.

Another reason why I'm less of a college football fan than I used to be. Too many outlets you have to pay for.
Keep in mind that if you have Youtube TV or Comcast that the game can also be seen on NBCSN. At least, that's how they've usually handled these Peacock games with MLB and NBA.

I have seen those (Vsee Boxes) for sale but was wondering if you can really get all the streaming services and channels for free or if its a scam.
well...you get the channels for free, but you are putting some unknown device on your network, in your house, etc. these boxes are well know for malware and other privacy issues. free, but it might cost you.

I know people that have had them for years without a problem. I've had mine without a single issue for a year now. The box costs you the same as 1 month of cable and you get every channel and pay site you can imagine. All you have to pay for is wifi each month.

I was skeptical for awhile too but I'm glad I made the decision to get 1.

PS. If you get 1, you'll need 1 for each tv.
