Purdue is ready for prime time, boasting four games at night on NBC in Ryan Walters‘ debut season.

In May, the kickoff for the Syracuse game on NBC on Sept. 16 in Ross-Ade Stadium was announced for 7:30 p.m. ET.

Now, according to a report by Brett McMurphy of the Action Sports Network, Purdue will play three more night games on NBC this season, if no games are flexed to different networks:

• Sept. 30 Illinois at Purdue 7:30 p.m. ET

• Oct. 7 Purdue at Iowa 7:30 p.m. ET

• Nov. 4 Purdue at Michigan 7:30 p.m. ET

It also was announced earlier this year that the Friday home game on Sept. 22 vs. Wisconsin will begin at 7 p.m. ET (FS1).

All told, the Boilermakers have five night games scheduled in 2023. And, more could be added, as start times have yet to be announced for five games: Oct. 14 vs. Ohio State; Oct. 28 at Nebraska; Nov. 11 vs. Minnesota; Nov. 18 at Northwestern; Nov. 25 vs. Indiana.

Starts times already have been announced for two other Boilermaker games in 2023:

• Sept. 2 Fresno State at Purdue 12:00 ET (BTN)

• Sept. 9 Purdue at Virginia Tech 12:00 ET (ESPN2)

The Nov. 28 game at Nebraska will be at 12, 3:30 or 4 p.m. ET.
