Not even trying. It's a 10:30 p.m. start in the Eastern time zone, so it's good night, see you in the morning.

I've written about playing teams in the Pacific and Mountain time zones. When they start after 8:30 in the Eastern time zone, I'm out. This is especially troublesome for me during BB season. I just record the game and watch it if we win.

I'm amazed how many of you can not watch the game live. I'm 53, normally head to bed around 9, sleep around 10 or so. And I have to be up for duty at church on Sunday. No chance I can't sacrifice a few hours of sleep for a game.

I'm not saying any of you are lesser fans, I just never could make that an option. Guess I'm sick.

Gonna need to have some coffee stouts chilled and ready, and try to hold the higher test stuff until the 4Q.

Hopefully the Cyclones are making BYU look like a laughing stock and not testing my heart rate in the 2nd half...

1. Going to get up early and head to the woods to put a deer in the back of the truck.

2. Come home, take a nap

3. Start drinking and watch Iowa game and keep the good times rolling while Clones get us bowl eligible.

Other: We're going to the game. I booked a room across the street the second the schedule came out and got it on the cheap. Gonna party in the hotel room ALL day. See how well that works out for me.

I stay up tuntil midnight every night anyway, so what's the difference?

How can you not "sacrifice" a few hours to watch the one sport we're all obsessed about?

The scheduling of this is unacceptable. Very inconsiderate for the ISU fan base. I hope the league manages this better with the new teams going forward
HA! Be happy our team is in a somewhat relevant conference. If you want our school making any money with football, sh*t like this is going to become very routine. Much like the B1G playing Friday night games going forward and their fans dealing with Peacock.

I think this is the best time zone just in front of central.

Central is great, but I think Mountain would be best.
I would tend to agree. When I lived in PST I enjoyed it for things like SNF and such allowing me to watch the entire game and have it still be before bedtime. It also was nice as I could watch football practically nonstop on Saturdays from 9am until midnight as whatever TV package I had included Hawaii games.
