Fox Sports Net, the Big 12 Office, the University of Wyoming and host Texas A&M University announced the Sept. 11 football game between the Aggies and Cowboys will kick at 2:30 p.m. central at Kyle Field and will be televised by Fox Sports Net.
"We have a challenging non-conference schedule and I am pleased that all three games will be televised," Texas A&M Director of Athletics Bill Byrne said.
"The afternoon kickoff in early September adds to our challenges in conditioning and developing depth quickly," Aggie Head Football Coach Dennis Franchione said. "We are delighted once again that the traditions of Texas A&M football and Kyle Field made us a choice for television."
There is no ABC Big 12 window at 2:30 p.m. on that date. ABC has an 11 a.m. window on Sept. 11.
The Aggies will open the 2004 campaign on Thursday, Sept. 2 against Utah. That game will be televised by ESPN and will kick at 6:30 p.m. central.
