Here’s something that came in last week and I’ve only been able to put this up now. This is the 450 game regular season college football schedule on the platforms of ESPN. There’s already been one change.
The Texas A&M-Louisiana Tech game originally scheduled for Thursday on ESPNU has been postponed due to Tropical Storm Issac and will be replayed on Saturday, October 13 on an ESPN platform to be determined. Other than that, this is what we have and it should be solid.
Of course as stated often in the television business, the schedule is subject to change. Here’s the ABC/ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU/ESPN3/ESPN Radio/ACC Network/Big East Network/SEC Network combined schedule.
2012 ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN3 and ESPN Radio College Football Schedule Note: Schedule subject to change; Saturday noon, afternoon and prime time windows will be added as the season progresses; all rankings Associated Press
