DENVER – The Western Athletic Conference today announced a 10-game football television schedule for 2008. Games will be shown on ESPN, ESPN2 or ABC during the season. The schedule kicks off with Louisiana Tech hosting Mississippi State on Saturday, Aug. 30.
The following two Saturdays feature two more non-conference matchups as Nevada hosts Texas Tech on Sept. 6 and Wisconsin travels to Fresno State on Sept. 13. The times and network carrying the first three games of the schedule will be announced at a later date.
The schedule resumes with six conference matchups beginning Wednesday, Oct. 1, when ESPN will televise the Louisiana Tech-Boise State game. Then, in mid-October, the WAC will be featured on five of the next seven Fridays. The first will be a showdown between the past two WAC champions as Boise State will host Hawai‘i on Oct. 17 at 6:00 p.m. MT on ESPN.“With some intriguing non-conference matchups and what could be several key conference games, we are extremely pleased with our ESPN schedule for the 2008 season,” said WAC Commissioner Karl Benson. “To be coming off two consecutive impressive seasons capped by BCS bowl games, we once again are thrilled to be providing our fans across the nation the opportunity to view some of the most exciting football in the country.”
