infofan Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 I just noticed that the Ball state game on Feb 7 is scheduled for 6pm. Im not sure if everyone was aware of that early start but i wasnt until now. I also noticed that for some reason GOZIPS shows almost all game start times in february are TBA, yet when you go to the opponents website it shows a scheduled start time. Why cant our website update these? I know there are the 14 day wildcard broadcast changes sometimes but they still have a tentative scheduled start until it is changed. For anyone interested, the Ohio U game (Feb 4) and Eastern Michigan game (Feb 11) are both scheduled for 12noon. The Bowling Green game on Feb 21 is a 9pm tip off.

wadszip Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Looked at the MAC site and the Ball State game is listed as being aired on ASN, so probably why the early start. On a Tuesday, that will kill attendance. Anybody hear anything on the Buffalo game? On the MAC site, it's still showing Saturday, but it's the only game with a TBA time. I'm guessing it's going to be moved to Friday for TV, which would hardly be a shock. The Zips have played just two Saturday league home games since the start of last year (Miami, BG, both last year).

They have been advertising a Saturday double header pretty heavily. WBB game at 5, MBB at 7:30. I doubt they will change it this late.

kreed5120 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) I don't think they can change the date of the game on 4 days notice. edit: for selfish reasons I hope the Kent game gets moved to Friday as I'll be out of town that Saturday Edited January 24, 2017 by kreed5120 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 I'd hope not. At this point it'd throw a big monkey wrench into my weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought there was always one Friday game for TV, but still looks like every game is set for Saturday this week. 10 hours ago, kreed5120 said: I don't think they can change the date of the game on 4 days notice. edit: for selfish reasons I hope the Kent game gets moved to Friday as I'll be out of town that Saturday It seems like every Kent game ends up on Friday night, so probably a good chance of that.

The gametime got moved from whatever time it was suppose to be to noon, but it is still on a Saturday. I kind of thought that was odd as when one of our home games gets picked up, it always gets moved to Friday.
