The University of Missouri football game at Kansas State on Saturday, Oct. 8th has been selected for telecast on ABC, and the game will kick off at 2:30 p.m. (central time) from Manhattan, Kan.  The selection was announced today by the Big 12 Conference office as part of its weekly television picks for games that weekend.

The selection means that each of Mizzou’s first five games in 2011 will have been televised, with one appearance each on ABC (at Kansas State), ESPN (at Arizona State), FOX Sports (vs. Miami, Ohio), F/X (at Oklahoma) and on pay-per-view (vs. Western Illinois).

Mizzou’s game on Nov. 26th against Kansas, played in Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium, has already been chosen for broadcast on FOX Sports, and will kick at 11 a.m. (central time).  All other Tiger games for 2011 have kick times to be announced, as television selections are made on a 12-day advance notice policy for the remainder of the year.
