So ESPN needed a 9:00 game start. Why didn't y'all do the National Anthem at 8:55? You know, before ESPN went on air.


Blame that on the school, not the fans.

Also, I have a feeling it was a deal where the teams were about to take the field as per usual when someone came in the box and said "Hey we don't have time for the anthem, so have the teams start warmups right now."

The NCAA runs all post season events. Not up to the school at all

Way to pull things out of your arse and run with them.

In the NCAA softball tournament, they only schedule the anthem to be performed before the first game of the day since the games are played one right after the other. This is uniform to all the regionals. It wasn't the fault of ESPN, ULL, or anyone. That is just the way it is set up.
