The Oklahoma State vs. Arizona State game has been moved from FOX Sports 1 to FOX Sports on Saturday, November 2nd, due to the conclusion of the World Series between the Yankees and Dodgers.
The Dodgers beat the Yankees in Game 5 to clinch their first World Series title since 2020 on Wednesday night, which opened up the network to carry a college football game this weekend in its place. The game will begin at 6:00 p.m. CT.
Arizona State enters the game after a bye week, while Oklahoma State lost its Week 9 match up to Baylor 38-28 last week in Waco.

For the Sun Devils, a win would get them to bowl eligibilty, but it would also help them keep pace in the Big 12 title hunt heading into the final month of the season.
Oklahoma State, on the other hand, needs to win this game if they want to have a realistic shot at keeping their 18-year bowling streak alive. A loss would drop the Pokes to 3-6 (0-6 Big 12) and would force them to have to win their final three games just to get to bowl eligibility.
Arizona State is expected to have starting quarterback Sam Leavitt back for this game on Saturday after he missed the Week 8 match up at Cincinnati due to a rib injury suffered vs. Utah in early October.
The redshirt freshman has a 5-1 record as a starter and has completed just under 60% of his attempts on the season for 1,166 yards and eight touchdowns with four interceptions. He’s also added 279 yards (5.1 ypc) and four rushing scores on the year — second only on the team to Cam Skattebo.
The Cowboys and Sun Devils are scheduled for a 6:00 p.m. CT kick off, with Arizona State being favored by three points on the road.
