KALAMAZOO, Mich. - The Mid-American Conference, in agreement with the ESPN Network, announced the 2009 football television schedule on Wednesday, June 23. Apart of that announcement was Western Michigan playing on national television at least three times this year. WMU will open at Michigan on ABC/ESPN2 at 3:30 p.m. The Broncos will also face Indiana Sept. 12 on the Big Ten Network, which can be seen in 63 markets and on satellite television, as well as Ball State on ESPN2 live from Waldo Stadium on Nov. 24.
Western Michigan’s opener at Michigan, kicking off at 3:30 p.m., will air on fans’ local ABC affiliates throughout the Midwest footprint and on ESPN2 across the rest of the country. The Broncos take on Indiana in Bloomington, Ind., on Sept. 12 with a 12 p.m. kick off on the Big Ten Network. It will be the first time WMU has played on the BTN since its 28-19 win at Iowa to cap the 2007 campaign.
The Broncos’ third nationally broadcast game will be their regular season finale against Ball State at 7 p.m. on Nov. 24 in Waldo Stadium. It will be the second national broadcast at Waldo Stadium over the past three seasons as WMU took on Central Michigan live on ESPN2 on Nov. 6, 2007. Western Michigan could have a fourth game televised on the Big Ten Network when it takes on Michigan State on Nov. 7 but that schedule will not be announced until later in the season.
The MAC and ESPN also agreed upon start times for three additional game times for the Broncos. WMU will travel to DeKalb, Ill., to take on Northern Illinois at 3:30 p.m. (2:30 p.m. CST) on Oct. 3. The Broncos face Toledo in the Glass Bowl at 7 p.m. on Oct. 10 and WMU’s Homecoming game against Buffalo is slated to kick off at 2 p.m. These games may be televised regionally and details will be made available at www.wmubroncos.com.
Other game times that have been announced by the home team are WMU’s game at Kent State on Oct. 31 (2 p.m.) and at Eastern Michigan on Nov. 14 (1 p.m.). For tickets to WMU football call 1-888-4-WMU-TIX or visit www.wmubroncos.com/tickets.
