In a release announcing the kickoff times of 68 games, ESPN released the kickoff times for two Penn State Nittany Lions home games that were not released previously. Bill O'Brien's debut as Penn State head coach will be televised nationally on ESPN, as the Nittany Lions host the Ohio Bobcats at Beaver Stadium on September 1. Kickoff for that game is at 1 p.m. ET.

After a road game against Virginia, which kicks off at 12 p.m. ET on September 8, Penn State plays their second home game of the season. For the first time since 1974, they host Navy in a 3:30 p.m. kickoff on September 15.
