Gameday?

Postby RE Tycoon » Mon Feb 02, 2015 10:49 pm

saw a tweet today from athletic department that they are changing the women's gametine before our UCONN game from right before the men's game to 1pm.

Is this a hint that gameday is happening? My thought is their goal is to draft off the crowd from gameday and hope they stay to watch the women instead of hoping people show up early for the men's game?

GAME TIME CHANGE: SMU vs Tulsa on Sat., Feb. 14, moved to 1pmCT on ESPN3. Home game is first of a doubleheader as men host UConn at 8pm.

I thought the GameDay thing was an almost certainty. No?

The women's game was originally scheduled for 2:00, so only moved up 1 hour. FYI

It's gotta be gameday. Even though they're "picking" every week, every game has been a 6 or 8 pm ESPN game, iirc.

My schedule shows the 2/14 UConn game at 8:00pm. Is this not right? I was going to try and make this one so this inquiring mind wants to know.

I have no idea, but after I saw the tweet, I looked up the schedule and I'm 99% sure it said 6pm for the women's game.

Either way it looks like the men are set for the prime time ESPN game, unless we get bumped the deuce or Ocho for the real gameday game if it isn't us

Yes that is correct. I was planning on flying in for the game, but then I got a girlfriend... Thankfully, she likes b-ball.

They need 5 hours to set up cameras?

Every one of them adds 10 pounds. I am hesitant to go to the game.

Katz piece on LB, women's game time change...the only reason we wouldn't get game day is because UCONN is absolutely terrible.

I guess the UCONN "National Champs" allure played out.

Didn't a few tweets months ago say the UCONN game was for Gameday? I mean tweets from SMU/SID. Not inane crap I say on twitter.
