How many Early football Games do you think we will have for 2008??

[Bulls Are We]

Wanted to see if anyone has a idea on how many early games we will have this season.  I know the early games are good for TV reasons but with the lovely Florida heat they really Stink.

Dude...UCF last year. I'm STILL recovering from that cook fest.

This why I have my tix towards the top of the Level 2........

On the east side that buys you some time.  We still baked up there in the 2nd half. 

Also, keep your head up Triple...

All of them.  I <3 noon games!

Who cares if it's hot.  It's Florida, and it helps to wear down the opposing team.

I love getting out of the games when it's still daylight, getting home to a hot meal (and not fast food at 1 AM) and sitting down to watch the primetime college football games.

It's still worth the risk ......All I ask is that if a 2 ton soffitt panel is destined to fall on my head, please avoid the family and fall when the Bulls have a lead.

Too many of them. I prefer the 7 pm games where I can make an evening out of it.  Tailgate in the afternoon, it cools off for the game time, and drink beers into the night.  Go home and catch the tail end of the other games on tv...

I hate day games.

Plus with kids sports, I end up missing a lot.

FIU = day game

According to their website it'll be a night game.

Their site shows the game is still T.B.A....

Unless you're talking about their countdown clock... which shows a 7:00pm kickoff.

I was infact looking at the clock... and also thinking that even if it's on their local TV it would probably still be a night game... new stadium and all.

The ones I mark with an * are the ones I really think will be day games

Tennessee Martin -- FCS team = night game

@ UCF -- Already set (7:00pm ESPN2)

Kansas -- Already set (8:00pm ESPN2)

@ FIU -- Probably a night game on ESPN regional and/or Sunshine Network

* @ NC State -- This will probably be an ESPNU game.  (UNC @ USF was a Nooner early in the season)

Pitt -- Already set (8:00pm ESPN)

* Syracuse --  (Homecoming? and probably the Big East GOTW -- only two-Big-East-team game is U Conn @ Rutgers)

@ Louisville -- I expect this to be an ESPN2 Nooner... could be another ESPNU game if the Cards suck

@ Cincinnati --  Already set (8:00pm ESPN)

Rutgers -- Although I expect this will probably be a night game on ESPN or ESPN2 as Rutgers should be a good team... could even be a 3:30 ABC regional game.

U Conn -- Same as Rutgers, but if U Conn is not as good as last year, this could shift to the afternoon

* @ West Virginia -- Given the other games that day, I think this will be a Nooner on ESPN

If that WVU game is for the BE Title, it will be a night game.

Looks like we should have more night Games

I agree....day games are the worst.

The energy at the night games is so much greater than the day games, it is not even comparable.
