9:30 pm central, 10:30 eastern, and that's assuming the 6:30 game doesn't run late. I don't see any other games starting so late.
SIAP - ridiculous how late our game's start time is

Yep
The holiday bowl was always the same way
Solution...
Monster + Vodka

Don't start drinking until noon. You should make it.
Catch a flight to Vegas and go to the game. Problem solved.
It's not really ridiculous if you understand how time zones work.
OP at 66 I can DVR and I am up early.
Haha. But unless I am missing something, all the other bowl games out west start early enough so that those in the central or eastern time zone are accommodated. Unless it doesn't matter if no one east of there is likely to watch it.
Awful start time
Holidays Bowl game starts at 5 pm Pacific, 7 pm central.

That's usually if there's only 1 or 2 bowl games that day. Ours is the 4th tomorrow on ESPN. They're starting the first at 11:00 a.m. Central time. Only so many hours in the day.

And that's the only game on Fox tomorrow. See my previous post.
Too many games in one day then. Ours should be in prime time. They needed to figure out a way where probably the best game of the day doesn't start at 9:30 for one team's market and 10:30 p.m. for the east coast where no one will see it. I don't see any other games starting that late regardless of time zone. How did we get so lucky?
It will be in ESPN app the next day…orag80 said:

What does the east coast matter with usc vs A&M? I don't think either team has a strong presence over there. Plus I swear we kicked off at 8 pm playing in a NYE bowl in Florida against NC St in 2018. That would've been 9 local time there. It's not unprecedented
We should probably go ahead and eliminateTime Zones in order to further accommodate the people who can't handle the math challenge of Daylight Savings.TXAG 05 said:

How long do you want to ignore this user?

68 Ventures Bowl. 21:45 before halftime. 22:10 beginning of 3rd Q.
Pretty late. And this on is in Mobile, AL.
Side note, not sure WTH 68 Ventures is.

The 1990 Holiday Bowl, where we played BYU, kicked off at 4:30 PST (6:30 College Station time). Pretty much the same as it did every year around then.

Works in china. It would definitely make all the *****ing be more entertaining.
One team cratered in November and the other is 6-6. Not that many people other than us will be watching.

2006 Holiday Bowl when Cal handed us our ass kicked off at 5p pacific, if we need another example.
Yep watch the 1st quarter not getting my hopes up on our performance. Go to bed at 10:30PM then watch the highlights the next morning = profit
I'm just trying to figure out, objectively, why our game is the best game of the day. For us it sure is, for usc people meh… they don't really care if they aren't in playoffs. Rest of country might watch but doubt more than 1/4 would say it's best matchup of the day. Time slot isn't all that bad we will be on every bar tv in America on Friday night.
Get to play in Las Vegas, vs a Blue Blood, in the one of the nicest, newest stadiums in the world after sh*tting the bed vs Texas, Auburn, and South Carolina.Detmersdislocatedshoulder said:

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me.
Eh, less people to see Elko get out coached
Kinda what happens when you play in a bowl game nobody cares about…..
That's what you get when you qualify for one of the WGAS Bowls.
Time slot works for me. Not the least bit interested in the first two games. Weather looks to be good during the day for outside activities. Can watch the last half of the tech/ark game for a warm up
Will watch the Ag game to the bitter end or up until Klein in his infinite stupidity, runs Daniels up the gut, on third and fourth down for no gain. Then will hit record and watch it at 5 AM with coffee and breakfast taco.
2. Profit!

Gig'em and BTHOUSC
With that said - I'll be asleep and check the result when I wake up.

Tomorrow morning I'll make a cup of coffee, pull up Library, and click on A&M Football.
Breakfast, Football, and No Commercials at 0700, hard to beat.

Well too bad for me (in Florida), because I actually enjoy these bowl games. I'll see the 10:30 start, but there is no effing way that I'll watch the second half. If history is any guide, this game may end between 1:30 and 2:00 am on the east coast. If it's a slow game, or with overtime, even later than that.
Oh well.
Oh well.
