FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff is on the road, and the show announced its Week 3 destination Saturday afternoon.

For the first 2 weeks of the season, the popular pre-game show has been focused on Deion Sanders’ Colorado debut. FOX was on location for the Week 1 game between Colorado and TCU and the rivalry showdown between Nebraska and the Buffs in Week 2.

Now, Big Noon Kickoff is rolling into the B1G for a key crossover matchup for Week 3. That puts the show on location for the game between Penn State and Illinois in Champaign.

Next weekend’s game could be a good one, but it will be a tall task for the Illini. Bret Bielema’s program lost in nonconference play to Kansas Friday night.

The Nittany Lions are still in action against Delaware, but James Franklin’s Penn State squad has that game well in hand. Drew Allar and the rest of the starters will probably be pulled with time to spare as Penn State looks to rest and recover for next week.

With FOX on hand, the game will kickoff at 12 pm ET.
