Does anyone have a clue what time we play CMU? I am frigging IRRITATED!! been planning to go to the game for over two months... but, how can I plan accordingly if they don't post the game time... I am on the verge of just saying screw it... and not go at all

Wanting to know as well. Wish they could get it figured out.

They have until Wednesday to announce it

Really sick of this trend across college football where everyone waits til the last possible minute to announce game times. Pick a damn time and go with it. People need to make plans farther in advance than this. Better yet, just say 7:00 PM and roll with that.

Could it be a TV game, and UT doesn't know yet?

When college football sold out their souls to the TV broadcasters, as part of the deal the broadcasters also took over right to schedule the games the way they wanted so now the tail wags the dog and college football is all about "entertainment" value than it is about "sport" or truly representing a school----hence the need to create the bogus "student-athletic" construct.

Lighten up, Francis. If you were runnin' UT, you would sell out for a TV payoff too.

Absolutely---when one prostitutes oneself, one must lay anyway the paying customer requests.

Try living down here in the Dayton area and not knowing when a game starts. Do you plan on 3:30, how about 12, or maybe 7 pm? 166 miles between here and Toledo -2 and 1/2 hour drive, maybe 3 hours because of the fiasco on I-75 between Findley and Rossford. YOU GET MY POINT!

Noon according to tweets today from Scout and the Blade.

Toledo-CMU FB game on Oct. 22 will kick at 12 noon. @ToledoFB #GoRockets

there was a time when OSU, ND nor Michigan would play a night game, now it's big money and prime time recruiting.

Only 1 Sat Night game this year

I prefer night games, but at least it is still a Saturday game. The old people start leaving at halftime during the 7:00pm starts.

They still have them. On weeknights.

I was mad at first that they couldn't make it a 7pm kickoff, but at least with the Noon kickoff it's like an extra 1/2 day in which to rest up for the next game which is a ridiculous 5 day turnaround, with the game against Ohio U. being on Thursday.

I love day time games. Miami Redhawks, CMU, Ohio play a lot of Saturday daytime football. I believe BG does the same.

Ohio St at Penn St at 8pm on national tv may have also played a factor
