The battle for the Floyd of Rosedale Trophy is going primetime.
The Gophers play at Iowa on Nov. 14, and that will be a night game televised on Big Ten Network, the network announced Monday. (Note: The specific start time wasn't announced.)
The Big Ten used to refrain from staging night games in November, but schools are embracing the trend, knowing that's when viewership is highest.
The ESPN/ABC assignments will be announced at a later time. Here is the full list of BTN primetime games this fall:
Sept. 12 -- South Alabama at Nebraska
Sept. 19 -- Rutgers at Penn State
Sept. 26 -- Hawaii at Wisconsin
Oct. 3 -- Michigan at Maryland
Oct. 10 -- Michigan State at Rutgers
Nov. 14 -- Minnesota at Iowa
