ANN ARBOR -- Michigan's next football game will have another afternoon start time.
The fifth-ranked Wolverines avoided the prime-time TV spotlight for its Nov. 3 game against Penn State, which was slotted Monday for a 3:45 p.m. ET kickoff.
The game -- set for Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor -- will be televised nationally on ESPN.

There was some speculation that the game, which pits the surging Wolverines (7-1, 5-0 Big Ten) against a potentially ranked Penn State team, might be chosen for a night-time spot.
