TV, kickoff time announced for UCF's Big 12 opener at Kansas State
UCF’s first Big 12 game of the 2025 season now has a kickoff time and television designation.
The Knights will travel to Manhattan, Kansas to face Kansas State on Saturday, Sept. 27. The game will air on FS1 with kickoff set for 12 noon EST from Bill Snyder Family Stadium.
Kansas State, a popular pick to win the Big 12 Championship, is off to a surprising 1-3 start and have a bye week to regroup before hosting UCF.
The Wildcats opened the season with a 24-21 conference loss to Iowa State in Dublin, Ireland, then narrowly survived FCS North Dakota, 38-35. That was followed by 24-21 home defeat to Army and last Friday night a 23-17 road loss at Arizona, which was a non-conference game (the series was scheduled prior to Big 12 expansion).
This will be the third all-time meeting between UCF and Kansas State, and the third time the Knights have visited Manhattan. K-State won the first matchup in 2010, a 17-13 non-conference decision, and also claimed victory in the 2023 meeting, a 44-31 win in what was UCF’s inaugural Big 12 conference game.
Coming off a bye week, the Knights are currently 2-0 heading into this weekend’s home showdown against North Carolina.
