Does anyone know when the BG game time will be announced?

Should be today.

I’m still confused as to how the Game Times were decided upon. TV is irrelevant from what I can tell in these decisions.

That being said…don’t like the 12:30 but the 1:30 I can live with. Still good amount of tailgating but gets you on the road earlier after the game.
Slight edge to 2:30 if it was up to me.

Yes I was curious about this too. Me and others are already making plans to attend this game but it'd be nice to know the game time... 1:30 or 2:30 have my vote!

I don’t want to be THAT guy that complains….but the 3 different afternoon kick off times makes no sense to me. If anything, you’d want the 2:30 earlier in the year and the 1:30 in mid October when the sun sets earlier.

At this point….whatever I guess…

I imagine the wait on a time was because someone (CBS? ESPN?) had an option to air on one of their networks. It appears they passed and that NIU picked this time.

I haven't been out there in a few years. Questions: What side does the visiting team line up on and what section do visiting fans tend to sit?

The visiting team is on the east side, but you do not want to sit there. Students on that side. You should sit on the west side (section B I believe) with the other visiting fans.

Yes, the visiting fans are normally in Section A or B, which is the south end of the west side. Most visiting fans seem to sit in the front rows in that section. But we also haven't had very good attendance so you could probably move somewhat if you wanted to, plenty of empty bleacher space.

Thank you! Good advice. I think I sat in Section B last time.

CBSSN selected the Toledo-CMU game instead. So I take it that means this game is regulated to ESPN+ or ESPN3?

ESPN+

Our game vs. WMU at the end of the season could be regulated to ESPN+. Might as well just play it on the Saturday instead. Killing our attendance for weekday games on ESPNU or ESPN+ is dumb.

Game time, for Bowling Green or NIU?

I’m pretty sure that for BG kickoff will be at get-fûcked o’clock.

GO HUSKIES!

Wait. This can’t be correct. We are playing on a Tuesday morning?

NOTE: Correct date is October 23 (Saturday).

I read the website wrong, 26 for 23. Old eyes are not an excuse for not proofing a post, especially when trying to do a service to the board. Need to stay off for a while and gather what wits I have left. Thanks for correcting.
