With the television rules change. The networks have control of who plays the night games. The only time teams have can opt out of playing the night game is in the last 3 weeks of the season.

Based on the rules and games that have already been schedule week to week, I think it is fully possible UW plays 4 night games (and 3 on the road):

Sept 22nd @ Iowa - The other noteworthy game that weekend in Nebraska @ Michigan

October 6 vs. Nebraska - The only other game not schedules is Illinois @ Rutgers, so....

October 13 @ Michigan - Every other game is schedule except Minnesota @ OSU

October 27th @ Northwestern - Only 4 B10 games that weekend other options Iowa @ PSU or Purdue @ MSU

In my mind, PSU is out of the question. It's in the last 3 weeks. I think UW will opt out of a night game there.
