'The Game' to be @ 3:30 EST!

[NightmaresDad]

Per O-Zone poster who claims to have rock-solid source. Also says it's a done deal and should be announced soon.

This really sucks if true - The Game w/ scUM just HAS to start at noon! It's Tradition!
Oh well, it will only prolong the inevitable :)

hasn't it started at 1:00 p.m. recently? 3:30 p.m. is fine with me, I'll just be drunker......

 

[rocketman]

Yeah...it started at 1:00 the past few years. The only problem with a 3:30 start is split coverage with other games. Usually The Game gets near-national coverage with the 1:00 PM start, but at 3:30 a whole lot of other games will be going on.

I personally like 3:30 games, cause the first half is in the day and the second half the sun is setting, so its kinda like a night game.

This rumor has had a thread on the scUM board for a few days now. There's no way they move it to 3:30...neither AD will stand for it.

 

[strohs]

This would make me sick to my god damned stomach...

Is 3:30 really much different from 1:00? It's usually dark and overcast anyways. 3:30 is fine.

1:00 pisses me off enough as it is...

strohs you just seemed to be a pissed off person....lol

Anyway, I would be suprised if the AD's allow this to happend. Allow two schools whose fans hate each oher get suaced up for an extra 3-4 hrs before the game starts...I just do not see it happening. There is too much BS from both sets of fans at noon and 1pm games let alone a 3 o'clock game.

 

[jwinslow]

back in the day I'm sure people said 'no way the ADs allow the 12 pm start to change'

 

[OH10]

I think the time change would be a good thing. More exposure on the West Coast.

When it comes to scUM and The Game, it doesn't take much to get me going

 

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

Llllloyd is trying to do anything to win eh?

For the games in C-Bus, it would give tOSU staff a couple more hours to search scUM's luggage.

Hey, if you drank Stroh's, you'd be a pissed off person too.....


As long as they aren't trying to call it the "SBC Big Game" or anything like that, I don't care what time it starts. I wouldn't mind a 3:30 kick.
