Are Time Slots assigned by a draw too? Trying to understand if any method to 2PM CT.

Do you need to get so many night and heat of the day games in?
In addition to giving most American Fans more of a Happy Hour slot (vs during the workday), you got to imagine the good people of Australia would have also have appreciated the 5PM CT slot tomorrow - where it wouldn’t be between 3AM and 5AM local time (depending where in Australia you live).
AND if you flip flop with the Scotland vs Morocco match, those locals back in Scotland and Morocco (same time zone) would be able to watch their game at 8PM local time instead of 11PM local time.
Just feels like a real layup for schedule makers that was missed.

I'm pretty certain the dates & times for each match were already set before the draw
My argument is the schedulers knew where Canada, Mexico, & the US would be drawn... that was not random
The thing the US has working for it is that tomorrow is the newest federal holiday & the match is in 1 of the most liberal cities in the country... so no one will be working there... they have all night tonight & morning tomorrow to properly prepare to make it hell for the socceroos
