Kickoff time, TV channel announced for Colorado vs. Cincinnati

Colorado 's Week 12 kickoff time against Cincinnati is set. The Buffaloes will head to Cincinnati to take on the Bearcats on Saturday, Nov. 20, at 10 a.m. MT, noon ET. ESPN+ will broadcast the game. The matchup with the Bearcats is the Buffs' penultimate game of the season and their final road game. Entering Week 11, Cincinnati is 5-4 (2-4 Big 12) but has lost two straight games to Utah and Houston this past week. If the Bearcats don't pick up a win on the road against Iowa State this week, their best chance to reach six wins and bowl eligibility is the matchup against Colorado, with a road trip to BYU awaiting them in the regular-season finale. Cincinnati is led by dual-threat quarterback JC French IV, who has thrown for 1,990 yards, 15 touchdowns, and just three interceptions. French has added 313 yards on the ground and eight rushing scores. Starting running back Cole Tabb has had a fantastic season, with 812 rushing yards, an average of 8.9 yards per carry, and 10 touchdowns. The Buffs (3-6, 1-5 Big 12) could have a lot of changes by the time they are in Cincinnati if things go extremely badly
