The 115th Big Game between Stanford and Cal on Oct. 20 will begin at noon, as announced Monday by the Pac-12 Conference.

FOX will provide a live national broadcast of the game at Memorial Stadium in Berkeley.

The only other one of the previous 114 Big Games not played in November or December took place on March 19, 1892 (the rivalry's inaugural). Stanford has won the past two games against Cal and leads the all-time series, 57-46-11.

Tickets to the 115th Big Game are available for purchase by Stanford affiliates (season ticket holders, alumni, students, parents, faculty and staff). Tickets are $65 each and can be ordered by phone at 1-800-STANFORD or at the Stanford Athletics Ticket Office.

Nationally No. 17 Stanford (4-1 overall, 2-1 Pac-12) travels to No. 7 Notre Dame (5-0) this Saturday for a 12:30 p.m. (PT) contest set to be televised live nationally on NBC.

Two regular-season home games remain for the Cardinal at Stanford Stadium this season -- Oct. 27 versus Washington State and Nov. 10 versus Oregon State.
