Heard 6:00 was the kickoff...Just wondering if anybody can confirm this?

Thanks, sorry if this has been talked about already...

Hope so, that would make for a nice afternoon of tailgating.

That'd make my year if it was.

I hope so but with a chiefs game the next day I am sure Arrowhead is pushing for a day game.

Heard it from a Chiefs season ticket holder...

I was figuring it would be a Noon or 1pm start since the Chiefs host the Giants at Arrowhead the next day at Noon. A couple of years ago the MU-KU Border Showdown was played at night with a Chiefs game the next day but only because it was a National TV broadcast with both teams ranked in the top 5. The grounds crew had to work through the night to get the field ready for the next day. Last year, when the game wasn't as big of a deal nationally it started at Noon.

That being said, my wife and I prefer an earlier start but are excited for the game no matter what time it's at!

I cant wait for this game.

No one knows yet. It is all dependent on TV.

Not likely with the Chiefs playing the next day at noon, but you never know but I'm pretty sure kickoff time will come down to what the TV networks want. There are only 4 big 12 TV games that week, with 2 already scheduled for 6pm, I see the 11am FSN slot being ours. Just my thought.

11-11:30 is the most likely as far as tv selection options

An evening game will BITE. I just don't see it happening if this game is to be televised plus with the Chiefs game the next day.

Hoping for a midday game as that is likely the only way I'll make it.
