Well, I'm not sure national television is ****** us. Unless you think tailgating is more important than national TV.

It is homecoming after all. Traditions be damned

[Scott Malkinson]

With most outlying areas (including Youngsville and others) having Trick or Treating on Saturday, Attendance may not be hurt as badly as you think.

That's starts at 6 pm ...HC is always at 4 so that would have zero barring on attendance at kickoff.

NIU and center Michigan play at 11 am on ESPNU this weekend it ain't nothing special

Why would UL schedule a game during high school homecoming festivities and the trick or treat night? Don't they every think????

[facelessjonmoon]

If we didn’t only have 3 home Saturdays, sure, but only 3 and then they pull this.

And the admin acts like they're suprised when we have $ hitty attendance 🤦🏻_♂️

I'm so glad I paid for tailgating to use it twice this year

Lol. I know you're being sarcastic, but when you only have 3 Saturday home games all season, the pickings are slim.

I think we might try the rent a spot thing next year.

This is a valid point.

[Scott Malkinson]

Way to get fans to the games!

[Turbine]

Espn U is hardly National TV it's an add on channel that maybe 25% of the homes in the US has

ESPNU is nothing more than "access" if you already know it's happening.

[Scott Malkinson]

This is a valid point.

That's starts at 6 pm ... you know 2 hours after traditional kickoff time
