The Hawaii vs. Cal game in Australia will officially air on television, but there should never have been a doubt in the first place.
The first college football game of the year is Cal vs. Hawaii in Sydney, Australia, at the 83,500-seat ANZ Stadium which was built for the 2000 Olympics.
This is first football game down under since BYU faced Colorado State in 1987. Now we have a bit more info on the details of this unique contest. First off, it will take place on Saturday Aug. 27 at 3 p.m. local time in Australia and that converts to a Friday night game at 10 p.
