Illinois' upcoming football game against Washington on Saturday, October 25, will have its kickoff time and broadcast network determined at a later date, according to an announcement from the conference office and television partners. The decision will be made after games are played on Saturday, October 18.
The matchup will mark the 12th meeting between Illinois (5-2, 2-2 Big Ten) and Washington (5-1, 2-1 Big Ten), but it is the first time the two teams will face each other as members of the Big Ten Conference. Washington has won the last four games in the series, including Illinois' previous visit to Seattle in 2014.
This week, Illinois has a bye. Washington is scheduled to play at Michigan on Saturday at 11 a.m. CT on FOX.
Several other Big Ten games scheduled for October 25 are also awaiting final decisions on kickoff times and broadcast details. These include Wisconsin at Oregon, UCLA at Indiana, Michigan at Michigan State, Northwestern at Nebraska, and Minnesota at Iowa.
