It's a long way out so things could change but the weather right now in that time frame looks fairly cold. As a fan I'd prefer a day game with hopefully some sun to make the low 40's feel better compared to a night game with temperatures in the 30's.
I will happily bundle up so all those Longhorns who just came from temps in the 70s can freeze their asses off in the 30s. We don't get them very often in Ames late in the season. Let's make the most of it.

??? Not sure how this rules out the ABC primetime slot. It draws a bigger number than the 2:30 slot so ABC/ESPN would absolutely grab Texas vs Iowa State for that game.

The night window has no real competition right now and its options are limited. I know CW mentioned ABC game of the week, but FOX is in a more dire position: it has to choose either Iowa-Northwestern or a Big 12 game for the night slot. If ISU and UT both win tomorrow (and arguable even if only one of them does), that is the best option for FOX. Especially if Wisconsin also wins tomorrow.

So I think if we win we have a really good shot at a night game vs Texas.

I absolutely hate the cold but I lived through that one Kansas game. I will suffer if it means Texas suffers. 11AM would ruin my life for that day.

It ain’t gonna be Big Noon Fox that’s for sure. 6:30 ABC or 7 FS1 is my guess
