not something a bit earlier? Yes, we have had earlier games and @ ASU is earlier. Is it because our numbers are low or are the numbers low because we have a disproportionate number of late games?

It's a terrible spot for the most family friendly team in a 16 team league. It wouldn't surprise me if we had 2x more

No way. It's a great spot for families, especially in utah. Kids activities take up saturday day. For anybody with a kid

The reason the Big 12 wanted MT teams is to have games in that late window.

I think Utahs had 3 or 4. Colorado had it last week. Arizona has it as we speak
