Fox’s Big Noon Kickoff will broadcast live from State College, Pennsylvania, this Saturday, when the Nittany Lions play the UCLA Bruins in their Week 6 matchup.
The game time was announced earlier this week for 12:00 p.m. ET, so we already knew it would be broadcast as Fox’s premier game of the week. However, after today’s announcement, we know the pregame show will also travel to Happy Valley.
Fox’s star-studded kickoff show features former Alabama running back Mark Ingram, USC quarterback Matt Leinart, Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn and Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer.
Host Rob Stone, betting expert Chris Fallica, and reporters Bruce Feldman and Tom Rinaldi round out this season’s eight-person show.
Saturday will mark the second time a Penn State game has been featured on Big Noon Kickoff this season. The first game was the season opener against West Virginia in Morgantown. The crew last broadcasted from PSU’s campus in 2023 for the Nittany Lions matchup against Michigan. Penn State is 3-6 in its previous Big Noon matchups since the show began in 2019, including a win earlier this season.
UCLA and Penn State are two teams going in different directions. No. 8 Penn State is 3-0 heading into a primetime Big Ten opener against No. 21 Illinois, while UCLA is 1-2 getting ready to face No. 7 Oregon at home.
It might not be a spectacular game next weekend, but Big Noon Kickoff will definitely create a buzz around Happy Valley.
