Maybe it is time to sell those tickets. I have a two hour drive after the game. I think this is the way it has been the last two Ole Miss games in Tuscaloosa.

no kidding. I think this game is actually usually an 8:15 kickoff and will probably be later b/c MSU/barn is before us. The sun will be coming up by the time I get back to MEM.

Mississippi State at Auburn, 6 pm ET/5 pm CT on ESPN
Ole Miss at Alabama, 9 pm ET/8 pm CT on ESPN

I was at my sister's in Tampa two years ago and dozed off at halftime. Woke up to urgent texts about how awful we looked.

I try not to complain about this kind of stuff but my oh my.....

And good luck selling tickets everyone....nobody else wants to go that late either

I also live in Georgia and do not like these late games, especially since I have to get up early the next day! I prefer the 7pm Eastern games the most.

Yet one more reason to hate ESPN

 

[RTR91]

I have a feeling we'll get a rant from CNS about fans staying the entire game and not being complacent in the next few weeks...

 

[Bamabuzzard]

WHY is this game always this dang late?! GEEZE PEOPLE!!!!

 

[uaintn]

God loves you. ESPN, on the other hand.... Although because I have to go to a stupid wedding that afternoon, I'm good with this for the once and only time.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Oh well. I am usually still awake at 1am on Saturdays anyway.

 

[PaulD]

I hate these 9 pm Eastern slots. If its a close game, it takes me a couple of hours to relax enough to go to sleep. I remember going to the Mississippi game in 2010 at the late start and having to leave at the crack of dawn to get back to central Georgia for a church event. I'm too old for that!

That's cuz you're still revvin' from those 30 mile morning bike rides... :wink:

 

[Rush]

7:00 p.m. Eastern is my ideal.

8:00 is pushin' it.

9:00 is ridic...

And w the Auburn v Miss. State game preceding ours on ESPN, I'm not likin' our chances of kicking off on time...

 

[yesitsmed23]

I will be in Disney, so I'm thankful for this late game this time LOL. The later the better so I don't have to miss any of it for that stupid mouse!! :biggrin:

It'll kickoff on time. The maximum amount of time they'll delay the start is about 10 minutes. If the AU vs State game is still going they'll start the Bama game on one of the other ESPN channels (usually ESPNU or ESPNNews) and it'll be streaming on watch ESPN or whatever the app is called now..
