Wondered what the kick time possibilities for Arizona and tried to find a thread centered on predicted kick times but didn't find one.

This seems like a great resource: https://mattsarzsports.blogspot.com/

Anyone have predictions for the kick time against Arizona? I see it's a white out so hoping it's a night game.
 
The link you provided is the best source for predicted game times. Matt will post a prediction next Sunday morning for games on 9/28 prior to the release on that next Monday. Way to many variables to determine KO at this point guessing it will be a FOX game.

Depends what AZ does against K-State. If we’re both undefeated probably a 2:30 kick on a national brand, otherwise 11 am.

11 AM would be objectively unfair for Arizona but we know TV execs dont care.
 
Speaking of kick times OUCH for Sparty fans:



B1G fans: Haw haw, suck it, lesser conferences, we got the cream of the PAC 12 now, our conference rules!

Also B1G fans: Why the hell is our game ending at 2:30 on Sunday morning, why is this happening, what’s going on, this isn’t faaaaiiiiir
 
I see this White Out game as a 6 pm start.
 
If Arizona and ISU take care of business this week, that's a 4-0 vs 3-0 game.

The Big 12 slate on 9/27:
Arizona at ISU
Baylor at OSU
UCF at KSU
Cincy at Kansas
Utah at WVU
BYU at Colorado (already set for 9:15 CT)

Hard to believe that UA/ISU wouldn't be the preferred selection of that group.

Meaning the night slot on big fox? Do those normally get 6pm or 7? I hope 6 but it will be a late night drive home regardless.

Fox tentatively has MLB in the 6pm CT window.

So...maybe TNT at 6:00?
 
I think there is a good chance our games going forward will all be 2:30 or night kicks as long as we are in the Big 12 hunt. Especially when you factor in 3 home games against schools from the west in AZ, BYU, and ASU. Personally I like a night game or 2 because at least my morning is free to do something. 2:30p kickoff at least you are not up too early or home too late but it's an all day ordeal to attend. I hate 11am games because of the early morning as I am not a morning person, but on the flip side you can be home late afternoon/early evening depending where you live.

Night games always seem to have an electric game day atmosphere too IMO. Some of the more memorable games over the past 10-15 years IMO have come under the lights at Jack Trice and those games also probably had higher viewership nationally too as there usually are more viewers for prime-time games.

I want the AZ games at 11 am. Jet lag those boys.

2:30 FOX would be great. Looks like FOX has MLB that night, and we should be the top choice - which would be 2:30 FOX.

I have a feeling that once baseball is over, we will see several night games.
