I just wanna know why? lose most of the home field advantage
Gotta be tv, right?
There better be a good reason for this.
On the surface it's a bad move by our athletic dept.
Move the game up even more so their ace has even less time to recover from being overworked this past weekend? Not sure how much a few hours matter though
Lsu has done this before. Never understood why really
Must be the guy who typed up the scoreboard schedule that year,
or the guy who put "moron & white" in the Alma mater on the Jumbotron that year.......Sheesh
Well then surely we'd play (if win 1St) the late game
Want to say LSU did this to keep from playing late into the night and not getting the rest needed for Saturday. Could be wrong but that was the way I understood it when they did it. It will be much hotter at 1:30 than 6:30 in Starkville, which could be physically draining itself.
Gotcha!!!! Thanks for the heads up
I asked them point blank on twitter and haven't gotten a response yet.
It's probably something statistical like SEMO hits worse during the day or something like that knowing Cohen.
Yes the time has changed in one of the dumbest damn moves of the season. Take 3/4 the crowd from the stadium by doing this. Just freaking stupid. Had already made travel plans and everything to make the 6:30 game. Would love for them to provide a reason.
Maybe they see weather issues coming.
We'll still have a good crowd- it just won't be as good as it would be at 6:30 and many of the ones that do make it are going to be highly inconvenienced.
And I am with you on the reason. I just want one even if it's something like Zac Houston pitches better during the day, SEMO hits worse during the day, or we want to do like LSU and rest our pitchers for Saturday.
Many of us just got back from taking a week off to watch the shit show in Hoover. Will be a fun conversation with the boss again tomorrow. I would just like an explanation.
