UA coach Jedd Fisch, right, talks with assistant Chuck Cecil during a spring football practice.

Kickoff times and TV assignments have been released for five of Arizona’s 12 regular-season football games. Not surprisingly, they’re all going to be played under the lights.

The UA is slated to open the season against BYU in Las Vegas on Sept. 4. Jedd Fisch’s debut will start at 7:30 p.m. and will be televised by ESPN.

The Wildcats’ next two games, at home vs. San Diego State and NAU, are scheduled for 7 p.m. kickoffs. Both games will air on Pac-12 Networks.

Kickoff times also were released for Arizona’s two Friday games.

On Oct. 22, Arizona will host Washington. That game will start at 7:30 and air on ESPN2.

On Nov. 19, the UA will visit Washington State. That game will start at 7 p.m. Arizona time (6 p.m. in Pullman) and will air on Pac-12 Networks.

Additional kickoff times and TV assignments will be announced during the course of the season.
