More than half of the crowd is the band. What was the start time?

Kickoff was at 6:00 local time in Muncie, IN. On a cold Tuesday night. ESPN is the devil.

Yep, it's a terrible trade off, and ESPN isn't paying them all that well to justify what it's doing to the fans.  Conversely, though, one must wonder what the ticket sales were prior to this development that the schools actually thought this was a move in the RIGHT direction....

Is this byu’s future?

More likely USU's future.

 

USU vs SJSU (Senior Night; USU ranked 14th)

Kickoff Saturday, 2:00 p.m.

Facebook (not televised, but streamed)

 

Attendance:  19,107  (stadium capacity 25,100).

 

That's brutal.  In USU's greatest season in its entire history, it can't even sell out a game on Senior Night (starting at 2:00 p.m. on a Saturday).   

Will be interesting to see how bad attendance is during a bad season....

ESPN is a big deal for schools with large fan followings.

So I think it is a big deal for schools like BYU, Boise, SDSU, UNLV (basketball)

 

But, moving forward, ESPN, with inevitable late start times, probably is a bad idea for G5 schools with tiny fanbases.   They need Saturday afternoon games, and TV doesn't matter to them as much.

Facebook, with earlier start times, will be a better option for G5 schools with under 20,000 attendance.
