Odd times

Whose idea was it to essentially forfeit the home crowd advantage at two home games? The ISU game is at 10 am I believe? While it may be true that the LNC will be full of screaming kids, it isn't fair to loyal season ticket holders to hold a game at that time and not include the game in the season ticket package. And then I find out last night at the Texas game(great win btw) that Monday's OSU game is at 330? Guess Joe C doesn't realize or care that there are a lot of people who still have to work on MLK day. And that game is part of the ticket package. When even the best games at the best times are poorly attended this is a huge mistake.

They used to have the kids day game on a Saturday afternoon, and have a contest between the Norman elementary schools for the most attendees, loudest, etc. I agree with you about the athletic department not caring about the fans. Tv may have played a part in the OSU game on MLK day at 3:30. The y will play them anytime to get the TV money. To H--- with the fans. Look how sometimes you do not know what time a home football game will kickoff yntil the Sunday prior to it.

February 4 (ISU Game) is also National Signing Day for football. Not sure if that plays any role at all or coincidence?

The game is nationally televised on Fox Sports 1. OU wants that money so whatever time Fox says we get.
