OU game is 11:00 kickoff

[Purp]

Normally I would hate this, but I think this actually works into our favor. Oklahoma seems to struggle a lot at 11 a.m...just look at last Saturday for an example.

I think they will be more prone to come out sluggish than we will.

They also come out sluggish in night games versus Army.

UT/OU is almost always an 11 am kick. Maybe last year was different for some reason, but that is almost always the early game.

moved for television and if you go back and look at the times early in the history of the big 12 up to roughly 2008 you will see split between the 11:00 am slot and the 2:30 slot.

Your job is to pay your money and accept whatever is thrown at you by the media, conference, et. al. If you don't like it you're allegiances will come into question by guys like Nick Saban.

At this time of year 11 am starts don’t bother me

People that get married during college football season are the worst!

PREACH!

[ Finebaum ]. Now I have to go to my SIL's 31st birthday party at Joe Ts. I was hoping the game would coincide.

Noooooooooo!

 

[SnoSki]

Have we ever had a night home game vs OU? All I can recall are day games.

 

[SnoSki]

Not really. TCU/OU have had Evening games.

In Norman, sure, but when was the last time Ou played at TCU at night?

big 12 play in ft worth it has been 11:00 in 2012, 2014 & 2016 were later in the afternoon, and now another 11:00

Is she hot?

Makes no difference to me this time b/c we'll be out of town (may have to leave a little earlier so I can be in front of the TV by kickoff, though). That said, with youth soccer games in the mornings 11am kicks are suboptimal. In the not-too-distant future it won't matter what time the game is, though, b/c we'll be a tournaments all weekend.

Otherwise, I kinda prefer the earlier kicks for our games because it gives me more time to get home and watch the tail end of the 2:30 games and prime time games. We miss the other best games of the day when we play night games.

1998......lost 10-9

Had an Int to seal it and our defender fumbled it back to give OU one more chance....they then kicked fg to win

it will take some of the heat off from the wives and or significant others when the drinking commences at breakfast.

Is she hot?

And if so, what time should we show up for the party?

I really want to pick a side in this riveting argument about start times of Texas OU, but I can't figure out which side.

I actually like them.

I also do not have kids and have very few real responsibilities on weekends.
