This weekend’s Penn State-Washington game will be shown in Imax in a first-time partnership with NBC Sports, bringing the college football sports experience to a larger screen than most have at home. The game is this Saturday, Nov. 9 at 8 p.m. Eastern/5 p.m. Pacific, also airing for home viewers via Peacock.

The partnership is a continuing one for NBC Sports and Imax, building on the airing of the 2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony at more than 100 Imax locations. It was the first time the ceremony has been shown in Imax.

The game is the No. 6-ranked Penn State’s annual “White Out” game at Beaver Stadium, where fans dress in all white.
