Magic of Night Games

Probably those fans that usually make day trips from Helena, Butte, the Bitteroot or the Flathead. Hotels are a huge added expense for some. Just like when we see that huge drop off in the playoffs. Some people can only budget for and swing season tickets. It is a deterrent for some and not so much for others. Luckily the weather looks pretty good this weekend, so it’ll be less of a deterrent.

Yeah for me it doesn't matter. If we're coming to Missoula my wife and I fly in Thursday and out Sunday or Monday no matter when the game is.
 
Montana is 16-2 in night games played at WGS since lights were installed in 2011, riding a streak of 11-straight home victories after dark. It's a streak that dates to 2018 when Hauck returned to Montana, meaning he's never lost a night game in his entire career at UM. Of those 11-straight wins, six have been against ranked opponents in the FCS media poll, with this week's matchup against No. 4 UC Davis being the highest ranked opponent of them all.

Rumor has it that ESPN is going to push kick-off back until the game on ESPN2 beforehand is over - likely later than the scheduled 8:15 start. Could be painful sitting in the stadium waiting for kick-off.
 
I had a tyco race track with a clover leaf configuration as a kid.
Later I had a Tyco Turbo Track with with Nite Glow.
It was about the same.

That's why those of us in Central and Eastern time zones don't like late night games. Couple this with the lack of viewing options really makes it difficult. For example, the last 2 yrs ESPN2 games were on ESPN+. Now, the game is not showing on ESPN+. Many don't have an ESPN2 option.

That's why I'm praying ASU blows the doors off of UCF and it's over fast.

ESPN could start the game on ESPN News but it would to preempt USA Dodgeball.

Usually the kickoff is on time, it’s the game broadcast that doesn’t start until the previous game is over. Sometimes folks at home have missed most of the first quarter.
