Game time, TV set for important Big 12 clash between Kansas State and Texas Tech

The Kansas State football team will host one of the most important Big 12 games of the week this Saturday when Texas Tech arrives at Bill Snyder Family Stadium.

With that in mind, FOX has selected the matchup for one of its best time slots.

K-State and Texas Tech will kick off at 2:30 p.m. on Nov. 1 in Manhattan while a national viewing audience follows along on TV.

It figures to be a good game.

Texas Tech is off to a 7-1 start, and the Red Raiders have been favored to win the Big 12 all season. But the Wildcats have won three of their past four games, and they could disrupt the conference championship race with an upset.

Texas Tech is an early favorite of 6.5 points in the matchup.

That does not come as a surprise. The Red Raiders have won all seven of their games by at least 24 points. Their lone loss was a back-and-forth affair at Arizona State. Kansas State has been an underdog in each of its past three games. That role seems to suit the Wildcats this season.

Texas Tech is coming off a 42-0 victory over Oklahoma State. K-State is coming off a 42-17 win at Kansas.

Both teams are playing well. There are many reasons for fans to tune into the high-stakes game.
