Football game times

Sept 22nd game is at noon

Is that the home game against Coastal Carolina. If the noon kickoff suggested here is accurate, that will kill attendance no matter how well the team does earlier.

I know for games Express and others travel hours to and fro.

Other than travel concerns, rain chasing is silly and "Louisiana" temperatures are irrelevant.

"Louisiana Saturday Nights."

The 22nd is Coastal. That would be a killer.

Please tell me you're just trolling here.

A noon kickoff in Sept. over here ain't the same as a noon kickoff in Tuscaloosa or Athens. It just isn't. This is a safety issue.

After what happened the last 2 times they pulled this crap, I though people got the idea.

We can't be this stupid.

It's not up to us. It would be a conference and ESPN+ decision. 😢

The Coastal Carolina start time is still showing as “TBA” on the website. That “12:00 AM” on Ticketmaster might be a placeholder.

Actually, they sent a similar notice to me for all home games: they are all set-up as 'events' in FB, and if you click on 'interested' or 'going' they keep you updated. The events were all originally set as 6pm, except NMST, which was @4, but now they are all at 12am. I guess they will update them as the times are set.

Ah makes sense.

ESPN kills home attendance.

People need to be able to plan.

[CajunDreDog]

As stated earlier, games times will be announced typically 12 days before the game. All conferences do this now.

But I’d bet that most of our home game will be 6PM, except HC and maybe the Nov games as they typically are. I’d still love for us to just state “ALL Louisiana home football games will kickoff at 6PM.” and be done with it.

Tailgating deprivation formula.

Tailgating deprivation formula.

Last season, our tailgate spot got used ZERO times. I was looking forward to being able to use it this season
