Three kickoffs announced for Iowa football

The Big Ten released some football kickoff times Tuesday morning. Get used to the 'morning” part of that thought.

Iowa will play host to Indiana for its homecoming game on Oct. 11 and will kick that game off at 11 a.m. The network the game will be televised on is up in the air, but it will be on the Big Ten Network or an ESPN platform (ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU).

The two other kickoffs for Iowa released Tuesday involve road homecoming games. The Hawkeyes' games at Purdue (Sept. 27) and at Maryland (Oct. 18) will start at 11 a.m.. Television information for those games will be released at a later date.

Start times and television information for Iowa's remaining games haven't been released. The Big Ten Conference is expected to announce start times for the first three weeks of the season in the near future, according to a release from Iowa.
