Georgia-Colorado kickoff time moved to 7 p.m.

ATHENS -- Kickoff time for the Georgia-Colorado game in Boulder on Oct. 2 has been changed to 7 p.m. (5 p.m. Mountain Time). A 4:30 p.m. start time had previously been announced in June.

The game, also previously announced, will still be televised nationally by Fox Sports Net.

The change came about after Colorado's and the Big 12's television network partners re-examined an earlier but tentative decision to allow the game to be televised inside an exclusive ABC telecast window.

ABC has only one time slot for a Big 12 Conference game that day, and has already committed to televising the Oklahoma-Texas game in its afternoon window (1:30 p.m. MDT). The kickoff adjustment allows the Colorado-Georgia game to be televised in the later prime time window and afford ABC its full exclusivity in the afternoon.
