On a Saturday, yet not the finals? Who the hell can go to a college football game on a Monday night? Your fan base is all about Saturday, bc we work on Monday. fricking TV and fricking NFL spilling into Saturdays with their playoffs screws up everything.

Because that would put it head to head with NFL playoffs.

I agree with this, but I bet it’s because of the nfl playoffs. It’s all about that tv money

I’d agree it’d be better to not have to use it if that were an option. Your games will ALWAYS be more attended if nobody has to take of work (from a traditional 9-5 standpoint).

The NFL could easily use their existing 4 time slots for their four playoff games that weekend and stay out of Saturday. Sunday 12pm, 3:15pm, 7:15pm and Monday at 7:20pm. And by the way, the NFL fans would prefer that bc that's what they are used to. I have several Saints friends that work Tuesday-Saturday bc of this. It screws up both fan bases.

They won’t have trouble filling the stadium, so tv viewing is the main concern. More fatties watch tv in prime time than on the weekend.

Strange meltdown. This is not a new development. It’s been this way since inception. Same as NCAA basketball champ game.

It's one game, one day, not an entire season. Bite the bullet & allocate 8 hrs for Tuesday so you can really enjoy the game. on Monday. Time well spent!
