Colorado is looking to move their home game vs. USC in 2011 to a Thurday or Friday. Friday is more likely b/c ESPN has already filled November 3rd.

Michigan St. scheduled their home opener in 2012 vs. Boise St. for a Friday night and ESPN guaranteed TV.

Note that the high school schedules in Michigan will play on Thursday before Labor Day, allowing them to schedule this game without interfering with those games.

Like i said, everyone laughed at BE on thursdays.

Personally, I prefer Saturday games for tailgating, etc.. But from a national exposure perspective, Thursdays and Fridays are a freaking homerun. Undivided attention.
