Heard 6:00 was the kickoff...Just wondering if anybody can confirm this?
Thanks, sorry if this has been talked about already...

Kansas State (Arrowhead)
- Thread starter kg-cyclone
- Start date
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!

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.
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.

I'd be happy with any time really...night game would be sweet but not necessary to make me happy. Should be fun regardless
This^^ Early game gives us more time for post-game celebration, late game more time for tailgating. Win, win.
You're screwed if you want to be within walking distance this late in the game.
Let's face it, K-State and ISU will probably both field better teams than the Chiefs this year.
I'd love a 6pm game. Wake up and tailgate the whole day, game, and then party through the night. I feel bad for the poor souls who's hotel rooms are next to us at Sheraton. I wouldn't mind a 1 or 3pm start, but i hate 11am starts.
Actually, three days ago my friends and I got two rooms at the Sheraton across the interstate from the stadium for 129 per room per night after taxes. So not too bad, considering the location and the late date.
So you might check that out.
