Northwestern’s two Friday night football games originally scheduled for the 2017 season have been moved to Saturday, according to reports. Northwestern had originally been schedule to play at Maryland and at home for Michigan State on Friday nights.
However, the Big Ten released several schedule changes in its football prospectus released to the media on Friday morning.
The new schedule has both Northwestern games moved to Saturday. After announcing three in-conference Friday games earlier this year, the Big Ten will only have two, as the November 24 Iowa/Nebraska contest has been moved back a day. The non-conference Friday games remain the same.
