re: Some questions for the resident Ohio State and BIG fans (new Q page 3)

What are the odds it would be at noon?

Very low. Other Big Ten games:

Purdue at Iowa
Indiana at Maryland
Illinois at Minnesota
Michigan at Penn State (probably the biggest competition to get 3:30)
Northwestern at Wisconsin

Theoretically, ESPN could take both Michigan/Penn State and Michigan State/Ohio State at 3:30. If they had to pick one, they're 95% going to pick Ohio State.

Also, there really aren't any other big games that weekend. The ACC schedule is terrible that week

Ok cool.

Flights are non-refundable so I reeeeeeeeally dont' want to take a big chance. What are the odds it would be at noon? And when do you think the announcement would be made?

In my opinion, the only way the game will be at noon is if one of those teams is very bad (i.e., way below .500).

I'm moving back to Columbus since undergrad so I'm especially excited for that game. Personally, while night games are fun, I really enjoyed 3:30 games (at UT as well). After a win, it's more enjoyable to have that evening.
