Official start times set for Ohio State-Texas, other marquee matchups

By NCAAFB Premium News May 29, 2025 | 10:17 PM

Hey Siri, set a reminder for Aug. 30 at noon ET, and block my calendar the rest of that day.
College football season begins with a bang on the last Saturday in August, and official kickoff times were solidified for multiple must-see games in 2025.
The Big Noon Kickoff on Aug. 30 and an emphatic start to college football in 2025 opens with defending champion and likely preseason No. 1 Ohio State hosting Texas in Columbus. The game is a rematch of the College Football Playoff semifinal last season, when the Buckeyes scored 14 points in the fourth quarter of a 28-14 win at the Cotton Bowl on Jan. 10.
The Buckeyes-Longhorns heavyweight battle on Fox is scheduled to be followed by another set of historic powerhouses: Alabama visits Florida State for a 2:30 p.m. ET start the same afternoon with the nightcap featuring LSU at Clemson in a 7:30 p.m. ET date on ABC.
The following day features a standalone game in primetime, a Sunday night matchup, with Notre Dame at Miami (7:30 p.m. ET).
Michigan travels to play SEC foe Oklahoma for only the second time in history on Sept. 6 at 7:30 p.m. ET.
Defending SEC champion Georgia has the 3:30 p.m. ET slot for three of its biggest annual rivalries: at Tennessee (Sept. 13), against Florida (Nov. 1) and at Georgia Tech in Atlanta on Nov. 28.
The next day, Michigan hosts Ohio State at noon ET.
Projected Big Ten and national title contenders Oregon and Penn State are set for a 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff, airing on NBC, on Sept. 27.
Notre Dame has three known primetime games in South Bend for the first time since 2018. Those 7:30 p.m. ET kickoffs are against Texas A&M (Sept. 13), USC (Oct. 18) and Navy (Nov. 8).
