If we dont then my whole day is messed up. If we win then I celebrate like crazy for the rest of the day. At least the games are not at 11am like the Pitt and Memphis game was a few years ago during our last year in C-USA. Bucs games start at 1pm, so I dont see why people are ******** about the noon start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wont be that hot like it was in Orlando. USF had better not schedule noon games in September though. I am fine with the noon games in November or late October. USF fans are going to have to get use to these noon games sooner or later because they will keep on coming now that we are in the BIG EAST. At least we dont have to play on Tuesday nights like C-USA.

I think that most hate noon games in November because family obligations are high in November: Youth Football, Youth Soccer, and Youth Baseball... When you think of the season ticket base of 17,000ish those are divided maybe by 4,000 or so owners, most of which are 30-40's something people who are caught up in family first... Yes I know the gators, noles, and most college towns love noon games but face it our fan base is not made of college kids or in a college town... The pitt game being homecoming will be around 30,000, because alumni groups have planned for noon game all year (Yes I cancelled or withdrew my kids from this week's sports) next week Syracuse game will be lucky to draw 15000 actual fans... Yes I love student support this year but they make up little more than the NORTH endzone and into the corners the rest of stadium is filled with many families who can't throw a shutdown switch on weekend plans... Its all about being on TV and I am grateful after soccer games on 11/11 I can catch 2 quarters on my TV... Noon games do suck for most that follow bulls!

Oh, I don't know about that. Playing a northern school at noon in early September might be just what the Doctor ordered. It may not hurt our chances much in the next two games... there is a big difference between Tampa and NY / PA at noon even in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
