This will be BYU’s second “Big Noon” game of the season, having hosted the show in Provo back in October before the Cougars’ rivalry showdown with Utah.

BYU also hosted “Big Noon” prior to a win over Arizona in 2024.

The “Big Noon Kickoff” cast of analysts includes host Rob Stone, former college stars Brady Quinn, Mark Ingram II and Matt Leinart, Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy and former Utah head coach and three-time national champion Urban Meyer.

The “Big Noon Kickoff” broadcast will begin at 8 a.m. MST, with the game taking place at 6 p.m. MST.

A win over Cincinnati will be critical for BYU to stay on track for a Big 12 championship game berth and potential College Football Playoff appearance as well.
