I’m just happy the Packers have a noon game at some point.

We also bribe our sons to come home with football tickets.

Whatever time that game is it needs to be circled and ISU needs to go out and have a day/night.

Iowa State needs to set their game kickoff times and the networks will just have to adjust.
Good Luck, we have ceded our rights to the Big12 by contract, which gets paid by the networks, and the networks determine when games are played by contract with the Big12. Just ask Oklahoma !:p:p Maybe in the future, schools will have input, but not under current agreements.

2:30 kick would be ideal. Bring both kids to that game and would be warmest then. But a night game for what should be a big one would be pretty sweet….

I'm convinced that there are still fans who would gladly forfeit TV checks in order to have every home game start at 1:00 (or 1:30) just like the "good old days."

I'm guessing the game kicks off at 2:30 on ABC.

Reason #1 is that weak is REALLY, REALLY bad for matchups. #2 and #3 feed off of this...

Reason #2. Both teams have a bye in week 6. That means Okie St is almost guaranteed to be a top 25 team, regardless of their outcome against Texas in week 7.

Reason #3 is that if both teams win in week 7, it's likely that this is the ONLY top 25 game in week 8

I'd wager some decent money now that ESPN's gameday show picks that week to feature their annual FCS game. Jacksonville St (Prime's team) vs Sam Houston, James Madison vs. Delaware, North Dakota St vs Missouri St.
Only real competition with my bet is Costal Carolina vs App St. That game is already scheduled for 6:30 that night on ESPN 2. You'd think they'd give a gameday location a better channel than ESPN 2.

Not exactly sure.

You think the KSU game can vault us from no votes to top 25?

Two weeks for others to loose. We only have to win once in two weeks. It's not a far stretch deoending on how we play in Manhattan..

I'm expecting a loss with CMC's struggles off the bye, conference road games at night and Sylar Thompson returing.

But Okie St would be a top 10 team with a win against Texas. That alone may get a 2:30 spot on ABC

AP voters may have moved on from ISU quickly but if they saw a 4-2 ISU that was a preseason top 10 team, I would think the resume would be strong enough in their eyes to get back in the top 25 again. That win over KSU is a big if though.
