Most of Michigan football’s impending matchups have times, but not all have broadcast information ascribed. With Week 3 having been set in the preseason, we know are learning what to expect in Week 4.
The Big Ten opener for the Wolverines had already been announced as a noon kickoff, but it didn’t have a specific channel involved, as it could have been either on Fox or FS1. On Monday, Michigan football announced that the game against Maryland in Week 4, which is also homecoming, will be nationally broadcast on Fox.
It is unclear whether or not it will be Big Noon Kickoff with Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt on the call.
We already knew that kickoff is slated for noon, but our Homecoming game against Maryland on Sept. 24 has been officially designated to air on FOX.#GoBlue pic.twitter.com/d1jNDwYkZg

Even if Klatt and Johnson aren’t on the call, there’s a decent possibility that another one of Michigan’s impending matchups will have the premier Fox Sports team. The Week 5 contest at Iowa, as well as the following week’s game at Indiana currently do not have kickoff times, nor any broadcaster assigned to the game.
This will be Maryland’s first time back to Ann Arbor since the 2018 season, as the expected visit in 2020 was canceled due to COVID-19.
Update:
Joel Klatt confirms the main Fox Sports crew will be on the game.
Can't wait to get back to the Big House! Gus, @JennyTaft and I will be there @CFBONFOX.#BigNoonKickoff gets things started at 10 ET…@RobStoneONFOX @ReggieBush @MattLeinartQB @Brady_Quinn @CoachUrbanMeyer https://t.co/OrbXZkz0QF
