The Week 11 schedule is seeing a number of adjustments to start times be made in response to the ripple effect of travel delays caused by a nationwide ground stop issued by the FAA on Friday. In one case, one football game between Oklahoma and Ole Miss has been pushed back to Sunday afternoon as the Rebels were unable to make travel arrangements to arrive in Norman, Oklahoma, in time for kickoff today. As for Penn State’s opponent, it appears all systems will be go in time for kickoff on Saturday night.

Minnesota was among the many teams dealing with travel headaches on Friday, but all indications are the team will be able to make a flight to State College, Pennsylvania on Saturday morning. With the airways being cleared for takeoff once again after a massive groundstop, that should allow for enough time for Minnesota to make their way to Beaver Stadium Saturday night.

As of now, there have been no changes needed for the start time of Saturday night’s game. But obviously, we’ll keep a close eye on Minnesota’s flight status on Saturday morning.
