LONDON, WE ARE COMING TO YOUR CITY ‼️🇬🇧
For the first time ever, Big Noon Kickoff is going international for the @UnionJackClasic as @KU_Football and @ASUFootball meet at Wembley Stadium in a marquee @Big12Conference showdown.
BIG NOON KICKOFF averaged 2.34 million viewers on FOX for its special three-hour show from Ann Arbor – Saturday's most-watched college football pregame show on any network 🥇
From 11:00 AM ET, @BNKonFOX earned a record 4.36 million viewers – up +5% from The Game in 2022 📈
Fox's Big Noon Kickoff is still in its infancy, but crowds are growing and viewership is improving. I spent a weekend behind the scenes with the show to try and understand why.
My @SBJ cover story on Fox's CFB pregame show bet that's starting to pay off

Personal news: celebrating an epic career with my dad in Maine this week. Lucky to have tagged along to a few press conferences and countless stadiums along the way. Owe my love of sports (and sports media) to you! 🤍
Personal news: After 25 fulfilling years at the NY Times, I’m retiring from the staff next month. I’ll still write for NYT sports as a freelancer (committed to the next 3 golf majors), but will step away from the news cycle after 45 yrs. Entirely my decision, all is good ...
You love to see it!
We’re still two hours away from the opening kickoff of the @USFL Championship Game and there’s a line AROUND THE CORNER waiting for the gates to open at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium.
