BOISE, Idaho – The Mountain West announced its FOX Sports national television package, which includes all Boise State football home games, for the 2021 football season Thursday, and ESPN released information on the Broncos' road nonconference games against UCF and BYU.
With the coinciding announcements and the CBS Sports selections announced Wednesday, each of Boise State's 12 regular-season games have been selected for national television.
Network designations and kick times have yet to be determined for four games, but dates are now cemented for each.
The Broncos' season opener at UCF has been moved to Thursday, Sept. 2, and will kick at 5 p.m. MT on ESPN. Kick time and network designation for the Broncos' game at BYU was not announced, but the date has been set for Saturday, Oct. 9, and the game will be broadcast on the ESPN family of networks.
FOX, which now owns the rights to all Boise State football home games, moved two of the Broncos' contests to Friday. The Broncos' home opener against UTEP will kick Friday, Sept. 10, at 7:30 p.m., and the matchup with Wyoming is now set for Friday, Nov. 12, at 7 p.m. Both games are set to air on FS1.
Boise State now has four non-Saturday games slated for 2021.
The Broncos' nonconference tilt against Oklahoma State, set for Saturday, Sept. 18, will kick at 7 p.m. on FS1. The Cowboys are the first team from the Big 12 to play a regular-season game at Albertsons Stadium, and are the first opponent from the league to play the Broncos in Boise since Iowa State visited for the 2002 Humanitarian Bowl.
Kick times and network designation for Nevada (Oct. 2), Air Force (Oct. 16) and New Mexico (Nov. 20) will be established through the course of the regular season, generally within a 12-day window.
Additionally, FOX is slated to broadcast the 2021 Mountain West Championship Game, which is set for Saturday, Dec. 4. Kick time will be announced near the end of the regular season.
Of the Broncos' eight known kick times for the 2021 regular season, only three will start later than 5 p.m., and none later than 7:30 p.m.
Season tickets and Blue Collar Passes are on sale now for the 2021 season, the debut campaign under Andy Avalos. Boise State enters 2021 with a streak of 23-consecutive winning seasons (1998-2020), tied with Michigan for the 14th-longest such streak in Football Bowl Subdivision history. The streak is the longest by a school in the Group of Five all-time.
The Broncos have made four-consecutive appearances in the MW Championship Game, tied with Ohio State for the third-longest active streak in the country. Only Clemson (six) and Oklahoma (five) have a longer current streak of conference championship game appearances.
Additionally, Boise State's four conference championships since joining the MW for the 2011 season are tied for the most in league history, despite being a member for just 10 of the conference's 22 seasons.
