Kickoff time set for Michigan's Big Ten opener vs. Iowa

Michigan’s Big Ten opener vs. Iowa has been set for a 3:30 p.m. Eastern kickoff on Sept. 26 at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, with CBS carrying the broadcast, the league announced Monday. The time fits the Big Ten’s customary 12-day advance window for television partners. CBS’ selection also means Michigan will play at 3:30 p.m. ET on back-to-back weekends, hosting Texas-El Paso on Big Ten Network this Saturday at the same time. It will be Michigan’s first appearance on CBS this season after Week 1 on NBC (vs. Western Michigan) and FOX (vs. Oklahoma).
