WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Two Purdue football games have been moved to Friday nights as part of FOX's College Football Friday schedule, the television network announced Wednesday (May 22). The Boilermakers will host Oregon in primetime under the Ross-Ade Stadium lights (Oct. 18), while traveling to Michigan State for a Friday night matchup (Nov. 22). Both contests will kick off at 8 p.m. ET on FOX.
Purdue is one of six Big Ten schools that will be featured twice on FOX College Football Friday (Michigan State, Oregon, Rutgers, UCLA, Washington) with each team playing once on the road and once at home.
When the Boilermakers host Oregon, it will be just the second Friday night conference home game in program history. Last season, Purdue hosted Wisconsin on Friday night to mark the first occasion. As one of the newest members of the Big Ten, the Ducks make the trip to West Lafayette for just the third time ever (1979, 2008).
Purdue travels to East Lansing for a Friday night battle against Michigan State, the team's first Friday night road game since 2020 (Nov. 20 at Minnesota). The last time the Boilermakers faced the Spartans, Purdue upset No. 3 Michigan State 40-29 behind big days from Aidan O'Connell and David Bell (Nov. 6, 2021).
The Boilermakers now know kickoff times for four of their 12 games this season. Start times for games versus Notre Dame (Sept. 14, 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS) and at Oregon State (Sept. 21, 8:30 p.m. ET, CW) were announced last week (May 14).
Season tickets for the 2024 season are on sale now.
