[BoylenOver]

Wisconsin @ Michigan St
Washington @ Stanford

[Omaha 680]

I have a question for the game broadcast wizzards out there. They have been releasing the Big Ten game times/TV schedule two weeks in advance. However, for the Michigan State/Nebraska game on 10/29, they say they are going to wait until after this weekend's games to set the kickoff. The game will either be at noon eastern on ESPN or at 3:30 Eastern on ESPN/ABC. I am assuming they are doing this to put the most intriguing matchup at the best time. So what is considered a better slot: noon Eastern national on ESPN, or 3:30 Eastern split regional ABC/ESPN?

I ask because my Branch President offered my wife and I tickets to the game, but we can only attend if they go with the noon kickoff. I want to know if I should be cheering for Michigan State to win or lose this Saturday.

There might be 30k people watching the two FBS games live tonight. Sparse crowds in Birmingham and Tucson.

I sure wish Craig James would contract a vanerial disease that would render him impotent and mute.

UCLA is a brutal football team.

Hopefully they hire another bad football coach to replace Neuheisel.

If this continues he might not make the flight home as the coach.

Also, I wonder how this BEATDOWN on UCLA will effect the Utes' season. Does UCLA become another 'easy' team on this schedule after probably a new coach I'm guessing, does Arizona become a tough team now with this impressive win, new coach?

Yep, slick Rick might not see the weekend as the Head Coach at Fucla.

3:30 eastern and 8:00 eastern are the prime spots.

He knows when the time will be set, he's just hoping it's noon (and not 3:30).

Omaha, you want MSU to lose, because 3:30pm is a much more prestigious time slot.

Embarrassing behavior by both sides in this melee. A team getting whipped and a team not used to winning.

[Hot Lunch]

Nice little pre-halftime bench clearing brawl.

UCF lost to previously-winless UAB. BYU's best win to date losing its luster.

Watching the fake official run out on the field made me laugh.
