ABC loves us

[SkinnyBenny]

And the October 29th jinxes have already started.

Have fun at USC, Fowler/Corso/Herbstreit/Howard/Andrews.

Guys...2:30 on ABC is regional coverage.  There will be other games mixed in at that time.  Remember the coverage maps.

2:30 on ESPN is national.

I get that, but it was a given that it would be national telecast. I think most were hoping for a night game.

Same here, but it is what it is.

My guess is that it will be Mich St. vs. Nebraska for the night game.

ESPN pays the Big Ten $100 million a year on the first tier.  They need to get their money's worth.  So, more night games.  They can run a profit on us running at different hours.

no night game. 

[SkinnyBenny]

I don't give a crap what the reasoning was.  I want a night game.

For Oct. 29th, it's a given we'll get the best slot. Slots are:

11 am FSN
6 or 7 - FX or FSN
ESPN/ESPN2 - TBA (either 6:00 or 6:45)

guessing ESPN at 6:45.

GT/Clemson got the night slot.

With all of this talk I feel bad for the maintenance staff at ku who is going to have to fish a goal post out of that weed filled pond they have on the hill.

 

[kim carnes]

JFC.  eff you ESPN!!!!

[ksu101]

A great opportunity for us to get angry!!          Oh and an even greater opportunity for LHC LHC Bill Snyder to play the disrespect card.    

["storm"nut]

Pulling disrespect card.

[SkinnyBenny]

Yeah.  We are setting ourselves up for the biggest ever KITN against KU.

Keegs helped bring me down to earth on that. We are there Super Bowl after all

Last 2 gamedays here were at 230, right?

[EMAW SP8]

Last 2 gamedays here were at 230, right?

OU and Texas Gameday was the early game at 11:30 iirc and last gameday was oregon, which started at 9:15

Is bullshit.  GT lost this weekend, iirc, and KSU v OU will be two top 15, if not top 10 BCS ranked and undefeated teams.

Seems silly to pass that up for some loser who can't even stay undefeated.

[SkinnyBenny]

He's talking about the last two GameDays in Manhattan.

The OU one was at 2:30 I believe.

Wait, memzy is failing me right now.  Have we hosted 2 GameDays in Manhattan or 3? I know we had one at KSU/OU Big 12 Championship in 2000, as well as one in Austin in 2003.

There are two games on ABC at the same time that night: Clemson/GT, Stanford/USC

Guys, they aren't going to send Gameday to a non-national broadcast.  The fact that we got moved ONTO ESPN is a good thing.

Gameday is going to come down to us and MSU/NU in Lincoln.  I think ESPN is hedging their bets on this one.

We hosted OU in '00.  That's what I remember.  I can't recall if we had it before then or not.  I don't think we did.

November 14, 1998: #11 Nebraska at #1 Kansas State
October 14, 2000: #8 Oklahoma at #3 Kansas State
September 29, 2001: #9 Kansas State at #3 Oklahoma
October 4, 2004: #16 Kansas State at #13 Texas (This was the first GameDay at which Washington State fans flew a school flag, a tradition that has continued ever since.)


OU was a 2:30 kick, don't know for sure when the 98 kick was, i was 8...

MSU is on this week. No way they do MSU twice in a row.
