And I didn’t think 1pm kick offs could be out done..... 3pm... hell yeah!
Or at least the Ballard Country Club which would make it feel like tailgating at Finkbine.
FIFY—after both beating OU. With Texas being the lower rated team that Saturday.
I’d be fine with not playing another FCS team again in our lifetime. Especially bored with UNI.
Don’t disagree with you there. I’m tired of uni as well.
3 PM kickoff, 3PM KICK ASS. Baby brother wakes up from a nap to get his butt whipped. By the way, a friendly reminder, don't sell any extra tickets to Tavern Hoks. Keep them out of Jack Trice.
I still wish that they would have that first game on Thursday night. Those were fun and you get all day Saturday to watch other games.
Man, this has got me thinking about the Drake game again. Between the broadcast and the nearly losing, that was the most unenjoyable football win I've ever witnessed. Just a terrible 3 hours, I was literally sick to my stomach for most of it.
You aren't going to be there yet are whining about the kickoff time? Give me a break.
I honestly didn't think it was real. No snark at all. But now that it was real I guess you can retroactively apply the snark.
That said, I'm glad you care enough to whine about it. Some don't.
I was indoors hitting golf balls and drinking. I checked the score now and then but I know I had a better time.
It was hot as hell during the day last year. I remember rejoicing that the game was later. The fact that the storm hit was just bad luck but it started as a beautiful evening, following a sweltering afternoon.
I only disagree with this because I am an alumni of USD and I am really looking forward to that game in two years!
I was at the Drake game. I can assure you that watching a crappy broadcast at home was better than seeing it live in person.
No, those Thursday night games sucked. They were a pain in the *** to plan for and they deprived us of a Saturday tailgate. It's one thing if we play on a Thursday because the game is nationally televised but to do it just because? Thats a hard no for me.
Kickoff times have consequences for people not at the stadium. It's May. I'm free to whine.
I don't disagree. I think it comes down to UNI just being an easy game to get. The contracts are all done with no state-to-state crap to worry about. UNI likes it because there's very little travel cost so they keep more of the guarantee. Iowa State is always going to sell out or near sell out that first weekend anyway so why not play a bad FCS team? Get Missouri State or North Dakota or Northern Colorado on the phone.
