I'm sure Boise State will be available on some channel and WY is on the MWC network. Pitt game starts at 12 noon, ESPN U.

I like that 3:30 kickoff time for the UT game on 11/28. Can get to the GB by 11-12 to tailgate and still get home at a decent hour to watch the Falcon victory recorded on ESPN Classic. :-D I know, I know...BG hasn't won in the GB since '94. BUT this is the year the Freaklings make their first appearance there so things are gonna change. :-D

Gotta love getting all the ESPN channels on Dish Network.

The only game TBA as far as time goes is @ Ohio. I'm betting on 2 pm or so since Pedan doesn't have permanent lights. Every time I've been to OU for a BG game, it's been an afternoon game.

58 days baby....ROLL ALONG.

I never really noticed when they put them in, but I was at Peden Stadium a month ago and they have permanent lights there now. But like you said, it usually seems like we play afternoon games when we are down there so that would be my guess as well.

Could be 33...I haven't been there since 2006. I guess it doesn't matter then! :lol: That is always such a nice ride down to Athens...

For what it's worth...BG @ OU is Parent's week or weekend, whatever they call it. Very difficult to get lodging accommodations.

I wonder how solid the start time is for the Pitt game. Pitt's website still does not list either a start time or any TV coverage.

Great, that'll be a victory for us. :D

Now if only we didn't schedule Miami for ours... :(
