I hate night games. Noon or 330 is fine though.

I like 3:30. The day separates nicely into anticipation, gametime, and celebration.

Since the poll said 'EST', I assume it's only referring to the last two games of the regular season (and the bowl game), which will be the only ones not using daylight time.

Give me noon. Let's get it over with so I can get back to my regularly scheduled life. I can't do much of anything when dealing with the anticipation, so I end up watching all the other games, which just makes me antsier. I hate night games. Ruins my entire day.

As a student at this wonderful university, I'll say 3:30 games for several reasons.
Saturday morning hangover recovery time is crucial, and jumping out of bed and walking to the stadium and then climbing the hundreds of stairs....well, it's made me question my iron stomach a time or two.
Also, 3:30 allows me pre-game if I so choose and catch some of the early games and get myself a little more pumped up for our game.
Primetime games are great too, I hope I get to experience another before I finally get around to graduating.

Noon. I don't mind 3:30 games either, but it seems like there's more of a selection of games at 3:30, so I can flip through several games at a time. If the Buckeyes are on, I rarely do that. Have the game at noon so I don't get too [censored] faced too fast and I've got the rest of my Saturday to watch/get caught up on the rest of the days games.
