Televised Games

Montana-Appalachian State football game on Sept. 8 has been set for 6:30 p.m. ET on ESPN3.

According to the article I read, it'll also be on Gameplan, which will help tremendously. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
 
The tradition-laden programs have met twice before, in the semifinals of the 2000 NCAA Division I-AA playoffs and the 2009 NCAA Division I Football Championship in Missoula, Mont. Montana won both games in nail-biting fashion, defeating the Mountaineers 19-16 in overtime in 2000 and turning the Apps away from the three yard line twice in the waning seconds of a 24-17 triumph in 2009. The 2009 thriller was televised live on ESPN and was the highest-rated FCS game ever according to data compiled by the Nielsen Company and the NCAA.

Night games in Boone are rare and magical. We played Wofford on Halloween 2008 on Friday night and ripped them 70-24. We were #2 and they were #3. Most fun I've ever had at a game.

The 2007 semifinal versus Richmoind where we won 55-35 was also a night game.

Older fans will remember the night game in 1994 where we beat #1 Marshall under the lights.
 
how many years will it be before the kittens have enough bandwagon fans ;)
to qualify to be considered for an ESPN GAME PLAN game?

Oh, you mean ASU has lights - and actually uses them ?!?! Last year UM spent in excess of a $ 1 million for state-of-the-art lighting - but we're holding off for a really, really big opportunity to use them bigger even than a football game. Our esteemed president is reportedly under negotiations with a figure eight racing promoter.

Tip, my understanding is that they will use the lights quite often...for practice flexibility during the week.
 
UM wanted the South Dakota game to be under the lights, but SD didn't want to play that late (and get home so late).

I know. It's just that I don't think 26,000 empty seats on a weekday afternoon in November is anything like the scene our Appy State friend was referencing.

Honest question: Why does USD get any say in that? :?

Probably because a game contract was signed that says they have a say in what time the game is played.

Their flight and lodging plans had already been made.
