The Gophers went through their first five games without an 11 a.m., start.

Five games into the season, the Gophers have yet to face an 11 a.m., kickoff, but that is about to change. Their next three games -- against Northwestern, Purdue and Illinois -- will all start at 11 a.m.

The Purdue and Illinois game times had been set, and the Northwestern game time was announced Monday. So Minnesota's next game is against Northwestern at TCF Bank Stadium on Oct. 11, at 11 a.m., televised by Big Ten Network.

Game times for the season's final four games have not been set.
