Colorado v USC - September 30, 2023 - 10am MT, FOX
- Thread starter Jens1893
- Start date
Yes, I can't imagine many of the USC players have played in games with what for them is a 9am kickoff.
Damnit. Can't we have 1 game at a normal ****ing time slot???

I actually love these 10am games. Saturday was a marathon.
I don’t have to cancel my wedding!
Now I’ll just be a prickly asshole the whole day if we lose lmao
I can't watch either at this time but it is what it is.
hahahaah. Fox is going to have to rent some space in Boulder at this rate.
Oregon...
I am attending one at 3.30pm and will probably be exiting the parking lot when this game kicks off. If I am lucky I might catch some of the 2nd half.
Sorry, 1 home game at a normal time slot.
Is 17 your lucky number?
What's funny is that the original Fox 10 am game was Nubs-Michigan at the Big House. I'm assuming Michigan isn't the reason they dropped that game.
Yep, and this could/should be our best recruiting weekend left. Best weather for southern recruits (October could be good, could be blizzard), best remaining opponent, etc. Oh well, two weeks to work out the logistics.
Nubs have one of the most watched games all season already, surely they can't be the reason.
I have to believe that's why they switched some to the CSU game.
Congrats!
Looks like the after party for the game is now your reception. Post address plz
LOL at all the complaints on CU getting slated for the most watched game slot of the week for the 3rd time in 5 weeks.
Makes for a rough Gameday experience for some.
This is the incorrect mindset. I'll take what's best for the program over anything that may mess with me personally.
But CU would get just as much exposure and eyeballs if they were the 330 ET game and they'd actually get to have a massive recruiting weekend. A Noon ET start time makes that a whole lot tougher.
I know it's a great time slot for FOX, but it's mostly because they haven't been competing with the SEC Game of the Week at 330 ET on CBS. So yeah, it pulls big numbers because they don't have the competition and they have forcefully put the marquee programs in there (Ohio State mainly).
IMO, the perfect kickoff for this game would have been the 7pm ET on ABC. All day build up, but kickoff in primetime, and able to get all the recruits in for a visit.
I was certainly hoping for a 7pm est kickoff.
But, I am not complaining(not saying you are either). We still will get great exposure being on network television in a time slot that basically starts the day off with fox's pregame show leading into it. The media exposure we have gotten this season is on a whole other level that almost all other programs are envious of.
hell, at least it's not on the pac-12 network.
