We have a kickoff time and broadcast information for Purdue’s trip to UConn this season.

On Wednesday, Gold and Black Illustrated reported that the matchup between the Boilermakers and Huskies in East Hartford on Saturday, Sept. 11 will have a 3 p.m. kickoff time. The game will air on CBS Sports Network.

That game will mark the second of three nonconference games for Purdue during the 2021 season. The Boilers open the season at home against Oregon State before making back-to-back road trips to UConn and South Bend for a matchup against Notre Dame.

The Sept. 11 game between Purdue and UConn will mark the first-ever meeting between the two programs.

Purdue is coming off a 2-4 year in 2020 while UConn opted out of playing the season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
