Fox announces game time for Texas at Ohio State, and fans won't be happy
Ohio State fans got another gut punch from the network that seems to love the Buckeyes just a little too much. Fox announced that it will air two OSU games in its Big Noon slot.
One is obvious. The Game, featuring Ohio State vs. Michigan, will be a Fox game. While Fox didn't specify that the game would be a noon kickoff, it traditionally has been so in the past. The other game... well, fans are not going to be happy about this one. Fox announced that the matchup between Texas and the Buckeyes will be a Big Noon featured game of the week when the Longhorns come to town on August 30 in what will most likely be a top-five matchup.

Athletic Director Ross Bjork has been vocal in advocating for Ohio State to get more football games in primetime. The Buckeyes have carried the weight of the conference when it comes to the Fox Big Noon Game of the Week. Since the inception of the show in 2019, Ohio State has been the network's featured game 22 times. Michigan is next on the list with 17 Big Noon games. In 2024 alone, OSU was the network's featured game five times and had a total of seven noon starts.
To say fans are getting tired of the early time slot would be an understatement. Especially after the electric atmosphere that was Ohio Stadium when it hosted Tennessee in the first round of the College Football Playoff. We've had a taste and we want more. It's time for Fox to start spreading the Big Noon love with others.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph thinks Will Howard has a lot of tools.
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph thinks Will Howard has a lot of tools. originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Many expected the Pittsburgh Steelers to take a quarterback in the 2025 NFL Draft, but not many thought they would wait as long as they did. Advertisement They drafted Ohio State field general Will Howard with the 185th pick in the sixth round of the draft, and veteran QB Mason Rudolph thinks that the rookie has a lot of good things going for him. "He's been great," Rudolph said in a recent interview with Missi Matthews. "He's a nice guy, first of all. He's a good guy to share the quarterback room with... He is athletic and he throws the ball well... I think he's got a lot of tools and I'll be excited to go to work with him." Some, including former NFL coach Jon Gruden, have compared the 6-4, 236 pound rookie to Buffalo Bills' MVP winner Josh Allen, who himself was not all that in his rookie season. If Howard can live up to even half of that comparison, the Steelers have something to look forward to. Advertisement In his final season with the Buckeyes this past season, Howard finished with 4,010 passing yards and 35 touchdowns on 73 percent completion, all three of which led the Big Ten Conference. The Steelers' current starting quarterback is Rudolph, with no Aaron Rodgers decision seeming to be imminent just yet. But eventually? If Howard can prove that he has all of the tools that Rudolph says he does, he could have an opportunity to take the veteran's job as Pittsburgh's QB1.
