At first I thought it could be a central time listing but all of the other games are in eastern times. I do see it says 7:00pm however on the USF web site...not that it’s any more trustworthy.

MikeG 938 Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 Both schedules I'm seeing online from USF and Houston show the same time- though Houston says it in CST at 6pm. If something does change, we will be sure to update. But at this point-- I am not seeing other evidence of different time. Now watch it get cancelled for COVID19 or something. lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I thought it was possible as some games have been moved up with COVID. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
