Kickoff times for first 2 homes games to be announced this afternoon

[jason21psu]

I don't understand how game time affects ones ability to make the game or not. Football Saturday's are events that are scheduled around not fit into my day or weekend. Maybe it's because I love tailgating as much as or maybe even slightly more than the game itself but I'll be in our cow pastures ready to roll as soon as the gates open (7 or 8AM). Do I prefer 3:30 or 8pm games? Absolutely. Noon games are the worst for tailgating but when I was a poor college student, couldn't afford to go to the games, and worked in a restaurant noon games were the best. Point is you know the schedule years in advance you can save 7 fall (and one spring) Saturday's.

I know a lot of you think JF is all hype but he summed up exactly how I feel about those weekends. He refers to them as opportunities to bring the family together, a quasi family reunion. Friends, family, friends I haven't met yet, and even some "enemies" all meetup on those Saturday's.

You guys need to get used to the fact that we are going to have 12 pm games ...especially against the non-power 5 teams ih out of condense games

Don't you also complain about night games?

Me? No way! I love night games 'cause it gives us time for a nice, long tailgate.

I don't understand how game time affects ones ability to make the game or not.

I think most people here are complaining about how it affects tailgating, not on whether it determines if they make the game or not.

I hope so. There was one guy talking about going from 8 season tickets to 0-4 because of noon starts. That blew my mind.

I'm not high noon for Noon kickoffs, but, I'll just have to hit the sack earlier on Friday night.

Then you live in a vacuum and don't realize not everyone has the same lifestyle as you, which doesn't surprise me considering who you root for. Clearly you don't have a kid that plays sports on Saturday mornings or you'd understand better.

I'm not complaining about the start time because I understand how this stuff works but it's still frustrating that I (and no doubt many others in similar situations) have to either be late to the RU game or worst case, miss it completely.

September. Mild nights. Perfect for night games. Noon not good for Sept.
