tOSU game at 7:30pm!

I can't believe it, really thought we were destined for noon. Gonna be a great atmosphere. If we somehow pull it off this Saturday in Lincoln, it will be darn near electric !!

Would be remiss if we did not say:

We are so screwed.

Will there be a theme like the War Before the Shore we had for UW?
Could we change the sand castle to a statue of Greg to welcome him back?
 
Please tell me there aren't any potential storms out there waiting to ruin an all-dayer??!!!
 
Welcome to the new contract. The number of noon games are going to be the minority. Through the first 5 weeks 9/30 only 11 of 41 B1G games have been noon kickoffs. Three of those 11 games were ABc national games. In fact there have been more games at night (15) then noon games. So the days of burying games at new are over. Now come November you may see more Day games but it safe to say that noon games will be the minority.

Don't disagree in general but in this instance it was easy to see a night game coming. Michigan on a bye, there's a B10 game on Friday... no other premier matchups... we get Ohio with a NY market game at night.

Thank Duke.

If Northwestern won IMO the game against Wisky is a much better match up than ours.
 
Before this was announced the thinking here was that we did not rate a night game for this one. What many of us failed to take into account is that BTN does not get TOSU very often becuase mostly they are on ABC?"ESPN/Fox. This is only one of 2 games announced so far that TOSU is on BTN , next week against UNLV at noon being the first. BTN wants the Buckeyes on prime time and we are the lucky beneficiaries.

There's more to it than that. The contract has a number of stipulations. One is OSU has to play 2 noon games on BTN and one had to be against a conference team. That was a key in the thought process
