It won’t be nearly as hyped as it was at the beginning of the season because of the struggles we’ve seen in Happy Valley this year, but the game time and television channel for the Ohio State football game against rival Penn State in Ohio Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 1 has been announced.
As we thought, Fox will pick the game up its Big Noon Kickoff window as its game of the week. Yes, Buckeye fans, that means another Noon ET kick, a time that almost all of Buckeye Nation is about done with.

The game was supposed to be a matchup of titans. Both teams had extremely high expectations entering the season. Both were considered locks to contend for a Big Ten title and College Football Playoff national championship, but that’s no longer the case because Penn State has gone into a tailspin since its loss to Oregon three weeks ago. Since then, there Nittany Lions have lost two games they were favored heavily to win, and as a result have also fired their head coach James Franklin.
In addition to all of that, Penn State lost starting quarterback Drew Allar to a season-ending leg injury, and must now try to come to Ohio Stadium and shock the world with all of those things playing against it. Something tells me, Ohio State will get the Nittany Lions best shot.
It’s just too bad it’ll happen at the sleepy Noon slot.
