2010 Schedule Question

[CajunCherokee]

_ MT has posted a kickoff at 2:30 here at Cajun Field on their website. _

That sucks. I imagine that the opening home game against ASU will also be at 2:30. Much rather 6:00...

We do have some good news and that is that we only have 2 home games that conflict with LSU's schedule, unfortunately 1 is the game that I am planning on attending.

* Sept 25th we are home vs Middle and LSU is home vs WVa
November 20th we are home vs FIU and LSU is home vs Ole Miss

A winning season and a bowl game would go a long way in correcting that.

And strong "loyal" fan support would go a long way toward that! I will never understand the fan that will support another school OVER supporting the scholl he/she went to. That applies to any fan - but that is just me.

[CajunDreDog]

Most of the schedule times are now finalized, except for the last few games. I think conferences are waiting to see what games to put on TV. So we might not find out until 1-3 weeks before what time these lase few games kickoff.

Understand, but that game will be one televised on the Sun Belt Network. We may have as many as eight games televised this season. So we will have more 2:30 games.

The Ole Miss game could possibly be carried by the SEC Network and the ASU game will be moved up to accomadate the Sun Belt Network to 2:30pm

[zephyr]

I'm really liking the bye week after Arkansas State. We have to take care of business against them but that two weeks could be crucial to our chances at winning conference. Giving this staff a chance to put a gameplan together with that much time is a bonus. I have a lot of confidence in Bustle's ability to gameplan for an opposing team. I've questioned and criticized his in-game decisions at times but I feel he prepares his teams very well.

I imagine that the ASU game will be moved up, as will the North Texas game. They still have our game against the Mean Green listed as TBA on the Sun Belt site. I imagine UNT did like us and just have it as their normally scheduled time until they hear otherwise.

So more than likely, our first 4 games will be before noon and afternoon kickoffs. Looks like at least 6 will be that way, with the high possibility of Ole Miss scheduling something similar.

Are you saying the possibility of 8 televised games due to the Sun Belt Network flex scheduling? That could be pretty good bet since our games against FAU and ULM would look pretty appealing down the stretch.

Looking at the other "top" teams' schedule down the stretch, there wouldn't be much to pull from. Troy finishes their conference season against WKU (not appealing) and FAU (already on ESPNU). ASU finishes their conference season against WKU (not appealing) and FIU (not terribly appealing). Middle finishes their conference season against FAU and FIU (both possibilities).

Yes, I've been told depending upon our record we could indeed have eight games televised. Both games with SEC opponents will be carried by the SEC Network. Oklahoma State on ESPN 2 and depending upon were we are in the SBC standings, potentially five more games on the SBC Network.
