3pm kickoff vs VT. Good or Bad? Or doesn't matter?

''The game will be on Sunday, August 31st, and on Tuesday, the Gamecocks learned kickoff time and television information for the opener. Long-time college football reporter Brett McMurphy reported that USC and VT will kick off at 3:00 p.m. on ESPN.''

Only bad that it's on a Sunday.

Better than noon.

If we win,our fans will not even mention KO time.
If we lose, well, let's just say, several will swear it was an intentional underhanded evil plot by ESPN, because of course they hate us.

What difference could it possibly make? Kickoff is kickoff.

 

[USCEE82]

Doesn't favor either team because they're both from the same time zone. I like it.

 

[92Pony]

Doesn't matter - we won't be ready; Or at least that's the way we will play.

I don't see how it could be a big deal, neutral site game

This. Different kickoff times may help home teams, but not neutral sites. Imo

Sunday is much better for me than a Saturday.

Only bad that it's on a Sunday.

Why? It's the only game being played at 3pm on Sunday. If it were 3pm on Saturday, it would have plenty of viewing competition.

As the only game played in its time slot, ours will have the attention of the entire college football watching universe. Not to put any pressure on anybody. . .

Good! Much better than noon, and still early enough to have a celebration drink or few after the game

 

[ScWildthing61]

Got my game tickets, and my hotel reserved, still gotta get the plane tickets though.
