Per 247Sports’ Carter Karels, the tentative start time for Texas A&M-Miami is set for 3:41 p.m. ET. That would indicate just an 11-minute delay from its initial start time of 3:30 p.m.
Based on the clock in Hard Rock Stadium, it appears that Texas A&M vs. Miami will be slightly delayed to 2:41 p.m. CT.
No word yet on if the Notre Dame/NC State delay will move this game to a different TV channel.
