Move over Coach Taylor, Matty Saracen and Riggins, the University of Washington football team is hoarding in on your Friday Night Lights time slot. On Friday morning, the Big Ten and FOX revealed its television lineup for Friday nights this coming season and the Huskies drew a pair of these weekday games -- on consecutive weeks. The UW will host Iowa at 6 p.m. on October 9 and turn around play at Purdue at 5 p.m. on October 16 in West Lafayette, Indiana. The Huskies, in fact, will have a bye week following those two Friday evening adventures, which means they'll go without a Saturday football game for three consecutive weekends in the heart of the college season. β FOX College Football (@CFBONFOX) May 8, 2026 Iowa's visit will mark the first time the Hawkeyes have played in Seattle since 1963, when they beat the Huskies 17-7 early in the season with Jim Owens' team ultimately playing in the Rose Bowl.β¦
