The GoPowercat.com Pregame Show will be a briskly paced hour-long show that will air throughout central and north-central Kansas on SMG stations KSAL (1150 AM) and KBLS (Sunny 102.5 FM). The GPC Pregame Show will air three hours prior to football kickoffs, and also air on Saturdays during the Big 12 basketball schedule. A minimum of 24 shows are scheduled.

The show will be hosted by GoPowercat and Powercat Illustrated publisher Tim Fitzgerald and GoPowercat multi-media coordinator Ryan Wallace. The show will also feature other members of the GoPowercat staff and regional media personalities.

Fitzgerald has served as co-host of another K-State football pregame show since its inception in 1998, but welcomes the show's leaner design.

"We have formatted a show that will have a quick pace, give fans what they need to know about the team, opponent and game and not expend a lot of effort trying to fill time," Fitzgerald said. "We're going to get down and dirty with analysis and unfiltered opinions about K-State sports and then turn it over to the Kansas State Sports Network."

The show will premiere with a football season preview episode that has not yet been scheduled, and then air three hours prior to the kick off of K-State's season opening game with Missouri State on Sept. 1.
