Appalachian State still a night game possibility

Just what I've heard, so take it with a grain of salt until it's official. ESPN has completely passed on this game. Heard Altitude gets next crack and if not, of course max Max Media will take it since the Bobcats are playing Monmouth on a Thursday night I believe. As for the time, I'm hearing 4 p.m. M.S.T., sadly. But again, all of this could be completely wrong. Just the info I received this evening.

4 P.M......what a joke, might as well kick off at the normal 1:05 since we're so worried about accommodating App's travel schedule

Well with the 2 hour time difference they are essentially getting the same travel schedule the Griz did last year? :?
 
I can see how they are concerned about returning home to Boone late, especially since they lose two hours compared to us gaining two hours when we returned to MT, but c'mon... It's only a few hours and you have the rest of the Sunday to relax.

Not so sure it's us worrying; would bet it's up to TV and what is written in the home and home contract. That said, 4 PM MDT would be tit for tat relative to last year's 6 PM EDT starting time.
 
Folks, the game is scheduled for 31 August, it doesn't get dark until 2130 or so. A true night game with App State will not happen. Albeit would be nice. 2000 or 2030 kickoff would be the only way to ensure a night game. Maybe by using the power of Brint W. and his uncanny ability to persuade people, he can get App State to commit to staying over in Missoula until Sat afternoon.

You want them to depart before the Saturday game?

OKay "SUN not SAT". I forget how politically correct people are on here at times....

Leave it to a military guy to make me count on my fingers...

I heard today from someone close to the Athletic Dept that it will be a night game!

7:00 kickoff time :thumb:

Haslam favors a 7:05 kickoff and our contract with Appy puts us in control, but a TV deal could still change it.
